Global Sodium Thiosulphate Market Size Study & Forecast, by Grade, Purity, Application, Form and Regional Forecasts 2025-2035

The Global Sodium Thiosulphate Market is valued at approximately USD 2.68 billion in 2024 and is poised to expand at a steady compound annual growth rate of 2.57% over the forecast period 2025–2035. Sodium thiosulphate, a colorless crystalline compound with versatile industrial applications, has carved a critical role in sectors ranging from water treatment and food preservation to textile processing and medical use. Due to its remarkable neutralizing and stabilizing properties, the compound continues to find increasing acceptance in processes requiring detoxification, dechlorination, and photographic fixing. The global market trajectory is significantly shaped by the continuous expansion of wastewater treatment infrastructure and the rising stringency of environmental regulations that propel the adoption of safe, effective chemical solutions.

As industrial operations become more sustainability-driven, sodium thiosulphate is witnessing a growing preference as a reliable agent for removing residual chlorine in municipal water supplies and industrial effluents. Additionally, its relevance in textile dyeing operations, where it acts as a bleaching neutralizer and color stabilizer, remains critical for high-volume fabric production hubs. The food-grade segment is gaining traction too, with increasing demand for food preservatives that maintain quality without compromising safety. However, price volatility of raw materials and availability of alternatives like sodium metabisulphite may challenge widespread adoption. Yet, with ongoing advancements in manufacturing purity levels and increasing R&D into pharmaceutical-grade sodium thiosulphate for treating cyanide poisoning and calciphylaxis, the market outlook remains favorable.

Regionally, North America maintained its leading position in 2024, underpinned by robust water treatment regulations, presence of key chemical manufacturers, and demand from high-end food processing and healthcare sectors. Europe followed closely, supported by strong environmental policies, well-developed textile industries, and innovative pharmaceutical applications. The Asia Pacific region, however, is anticipated to register the fastest growth through 2035, driven by rapid industrialization, expanding textile production, and government-led water sanitation programs across nations such as China, India, and Southeast Asia. In Latin America and the Middle East & Africa, increasing awareness of clean water initiatives and the need for industrial chemical upgrades are creating pockets of opportunity for sodium thiosulphate suppliers.
