The growth of the calcium hypochlorite market is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for clean water. Clean water is essential for human consumption, free from contaminants and pathogens. Factors such as population growth, economic development, shifting consumption patterns, and climate change contribute to the demand for clean water. Calcium hypochlorite plays a crucial role in water treatment as a potent disinfectant, ensuring water safety by eliminating harmful microorganisms. For example, data from UNESCO in February 2024 revealed that until 2022, 2.2 billion people lacked access to safely managed drinking water, with global freshwater demand growing by nearly 1% annually. Additionally, four out of five people without basic drinking water services in 2022 resided in rural areas. This rising demand for clean water is fueling the growth of the calcium hypochlorite market.

Leading companies in this market are focusing on developing dry-block calcium hypochlorite to enhance customer service and gain a competitive advantage. Dry-block calcium hypochlorite is available in solid, granular form and is preferred for various applications. For instance, in April 2024, SDS Limited launched its All-in-one grey water recycling system, simplifying and cost-effectively addressing wastewater treatment needs. This system is designed for households or office buildings, treating gray water from non-fecal sources such as sinks, showers, and washing machines. SDS's system uses intelligent chlorine dosing with dry block calcium hypochlorite, offering easier servicing and storage compared to liquid chlorine dosing systems.
