Global Urea Market 2026 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2032
Description
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Urea market size was valued at US$ 123310 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 117030 million by 2032 with a CAGR of -0.8% during review period.
Urea, also known as carbamide, is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH2)2. This amide has two –NH2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group.
Urea serves an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds by animals and is the main nitrogen-containing substance in the urine of mammals. It is a colorless, odorless solid, highly soluble in water, and practically non-toxic (LD50 is 15 g/kg for rats). Dissolved in water, it is neither acidic nor alkaline. The body uses it in many processes, most notably nitrogen excretion. The liver forms it by combining two ammonia molecules (NH3) with a carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule in the urea cycle. Urea is widely used in fertilizers as a source of nitrogen and is an important raw material for the chemical industry.
Global urea key players include QAFCO, Yara, KOCH, SABIC, OCI, etc. Global top 5 players hold a share about 20%.
China is the largest market, with a share about 25%, followed by Europe and North America, having a total share about 30 percent.
In terms of product, large granule urea is the largest segment, with a share about 76%. And in terms of application, the largest application is agriculture, followed by industry.
