Recent Key Developments of United States:

✅ February 2026: Global sulfur market deficits, impacting US sulfuric acid production, emerged with prices rising rapidly and expected to persist until 2028 due to supply shortfalls.

​✅ January 2026: The US sulfuric acid market showed promising future growth opportunities in fertilizers, chemical manufacturing, and metal processing amid ongoing industry analysis.

✅ December 2025: Mid-December saw a bullish turn with prices rising 6.49% in the second week, driven by tightening inventories at Gulf Coast ports and limited supply both domestically and internationally. Demand from phosphate fertilizers, refining, mining, and water treatment increased, consuming overstock inventories as fertilizer manufacturers restocked heavily.

✅ November 2025: Sulfuric acid prices in North America, including the US, fell to 113.69 USD/MT, down 0.7%, due to softer demand from metal processing and industrial manufacturing alongside adequate regional inventories. Declining sulfur feedstock costs and steady production contributed to this mild downward trend.

Recent Key Developments of Japan:

✅ February 2026: FOB Tokyo export prices for industrial-grade sulfuric acid (98%) rose bullishly by 12.66% to USD 62-78 per metric ton, fueled by high demand from chemical intermediates and battery manufacturing. In Q3 2025 extending into early 2026, September prices had increased 4.11% month-over-month.

✅ January 2026: Ongoing promising outlook for the sulfuric acid market, with emphasis on expansion in fertilizer, chemical manufacturing, petroleum refining, and automotive sectors.
​
✅ ​November 2025: Japan exported ¥605M worth of sulfuric acid while importing ¥24M, achieving a positive trade balance of $581M, reflecting strong export performance.
