Hypochlorous acid is among the most commonly used chemical compounds across several important end-use industries. It is used to synthesize sodium hypochlorite and calcium hypochlorite which are prominently used in disinfectants, bleaches, and deodorants. Hypochlorous acid is an active sanitizing agent which is typically used in swimming pools. Furthermore, it finds use as a skin cleansing agent in personal care products and as a wound disinfecting agent.

Global hypochlorous acid market size is slated to experience a substantial growth in the near future, mainly due to the ongoing novel COVID-19 pandemic, which has spurred a surge in the sales of cleaning and disinfecting products. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended regular cleaning and disinfection of frequently touched surfaces, along with regular handwashing.

Considering the applications, hypochlorous acid is rapidly gaining traction as a sanitizing agent. The coronavirus outbreak, which started a few months back in Wuhan, China, has resulted in a massive upsurge in the sales of hand sanitizers. Panic shopping and stocking of hand sanitizers during the pandemic has also resulted in shortages across many regions. Similar trends in the near future are likely to increase the need for sanitizers, disinfectants and other personal hygiene products.

Sanitization is an essential component of cruise ship operations, and it has become an even more critical component over the past few months. Global port authorities are cautiously screening for COVID-19 and its symptoms including common flu. Cruise ships generally make use of heavy-duty chemical disinfectants. However, hypochlorous acid can serve as a better and safer way for sanitization and disinfection of ships.

Hypochlorous acid, which is also known as electrolyzed water, is a highly-effective and intrinsically safe sanitizing agent. One of the most important features of the chemical is that is remarkably effective in eliminating viruses. A Miami-based company introduced a new technology in 2020 which allows the production of hypochlorous acid in unlimited quantities, to counter the coronavirus threat as well as other viruses. The technology is already in use for providing hypochlorous acid for Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings’ fleet.

Food & agriculture is anticipated to emerge as a major consumer of hypochlorous acid in the upcoming years. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the use of hypochlorous acid on meat, fish & seafood, poultry, egg shells, and fruits & vegetables as a no-rinse sanitizer. In agriculture applications, the chemicals is increasingly becoming established as a clean, safe, and effective biocide of the future. A growing world population and the subsequent rise in global food demand will boost the consumption of hypochlorous acid across food and agriculture applications.

Latin America hypochlorous acid industry share will witness heathy growth over the next few years. This growth can be mainly associated with growing use of the chemical in water treatment, personal care, and food & agriculture. These factors are likely to propel the demand for sanitization and disinfection products in the near future.

Some of the major suppliers of hypochlorous acid mentioned in the report include BASF, Arkema S.A., Aditya Birla Chemicals, Surpass Chemical Company, Westlake Chemical Corporation, AGC Chemicals, Tosoh Corporation, Kuehne Company, Ultrapure HOCL, Lenntech, and Kemin Industries, among several others.
