Global Carboxymethyl Cellulose Market: Growth Drivers
Food additive demand will rise, driving market expansion
The substantial demand from the food industry is expected to drive significant growth for carboxymethyl cellulose. One of the key reasons propelling the market is the rising demand for food additives such as thickening agents, stabilizers, and viscosity-modifying agents. For instance, in 2021, ice cream is made with carboxymethyl cellulose powder. Using the inclusion of CMCX, it is no longer necessary to make ice cream using churners and salt ice mixtures. Additionally, the demand for carboxymethyl cellulose is skyrocketing due to rising demand for ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat items such premixes, bakery goods, instant noodles, meat goods, sauces, quick-frozen meals, and other goods. Additionally, CMC is a fat substitute and is frequently used in the production of low-fat and gluten-free goods.

Growing Detergent Manufacturing Demand Will Advance the Market
Due to its remarkable anti-soil red-positing characteristic, sodium derivative of carboxymethyl cellulose is widely used in the production of detergents. Additionally, it works in detergents as a skin and texture protector, homogenizer, stabilizer, particle suspender, color retention agent, and color retention agent. Oil and filth are absorbed by the good thickening, emulsifying, and dispersing effect, which also keeps oil from coming into touch with the cleansed surfaces. Due to their remarkable qualities, detergents and cleaning products are in great demand, which is projected to propel market expansion. For instance, in 2021, as Karnataka Soaps and Detergents Limited celebrates its centenary year, the company has planned to go in for capacity enhancement by modernizing plants and machinery and launching new products to cater to market demands.
