Calcium Nitrate Market Report 2025

This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The calcium nitrate market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.84 billion in 2024 to $8.33 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to demand for high-quality produce, agricultural industry growth, shift towards water-soluble fertilizers, industrial applications, advancements in agriculture practices.

The calcium nitrate market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.45 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to environmental concerns and sustainable agriculture, shift in consumer preferences, rise in horticulture and floriculture demand, focus on sustainable agriculture, growing awareness of soil health. Major trends in the forecast period include precision agriculture adoption, organic agriculture practices, hydroponics and soilless cultivation, focus on crop quality enhancement, adoption of controlled-release fertilizers.

The increasing demand for fertilizers is expected to drive the growth of the calcium nitrate market in the future. Fertilizers are substances or mixtures applied to soil, plants, or crops to provide essential nutrients needed for plant growth and development. Calcium nitrate is a multifunctional fertilizer that supplies both nitrogen and calcium to crops, enhancing the quality of fruits and vegetables. For example, in September 2023, Statistics Canada, a national statistical office, reported that fertilizer sales in May 2023 rose by nearly one-third (29.1%) compared to the previous year, reaching a record monthly high of $1.8 billion. As a result, the growing demand for fertilizers is set to boost the calcium nitrate market.

The increasing requirement for wastewater treatment facilities is anticipated to contribute to the growth of the calcium nitrate market. Wastewater treatment facilities, designed to treat and purify wastewater from various sources, utilize calcium nitrate for contaminant removal, pH adjustment, and odor control. Factors such as stringent environmental regulations, urbanization, sustainability initiatives, and the need for clean water drive the adoption of calcium nitrate in wastewater treatment. Globally, 80% of wastewater flows back into the ecosystem untreated, posing risks to around 1.8 billion people who use contaminated water sources. Therefore, the rising need for wastewater treatment facilities is a key driver of the calcium nitrate market's growth.

Key players in the calcium nitrate market are introducing innovative products, such as granules, to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in agriculture and gardening. Granules are small, rounded particles or pellets commonly used as fertilizers, offering easy application and controlled nutrient release in soil. For example, in August 2022, Acron Group, a chemicals manufacturing company based in Russia, launched a new calcium nitrate unit. The facility in Veliky Novgorod produces 100,000 tons of granulated calcium nitrate annually, with an investment of approximately RUB 1.5 billion. This new unit strengthens the company’s fertilizer portfolio and promotes sustainable agricultural practices.

In April 2022, Casale SA, a Switzerland-based company specializing in integrated solutions for fertilizer and chemical production, acquired Green Granulation for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition is expected to strengthen Casale's market position and leverage an integrated portfolio of efficient technologies. Green Granulation, based in Hong Kong, is known for designing and constructing urea and calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) granulation systems.

Calcium nitrate is a granular solid chemical compound known for its high water solubility and chemical formula Ca(NO3)2. Typically white or whitish-grey, it is commonly employed as a fertilizer in agriculture and serves as a component in various industrial processes, including wastewater treatment, concrete manufacturing, and pyrotechnics.

The primary forms of calcium nitrate are liquid, melt, and crystals. Liquid calcium nitrate pertains to a solution of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) in water, involving diverse processes such as limestone, phosphate rock, and ammonium nitrate for applications such as fertilizer, wastewater treatment, concrete production, explosives, refrigeration, and more. Its usage extends to aerospace components, automotive parts, logging equipment, boring and cutting machinery, electrical and electronic appliances, among others.
