The hygroscopic building material market from inorganic salts segment dominated around USD 205.3 million revenue in 2022. Inorganic salts, such as calcium chloride, lithium chloride, and potassium carbonate, have hygroscopic properties that allow them to absorb moisture from the air, helping to maintain optimal indoor humidity levels.
The physical adsorption process segment accounted for 60% of the hygroscopic building material market share in 2022. Hygroscopic materials using adsorption processes help maintain optimal indoor humidity levels, contributing to occupant comfort and wellbeing.
The hygroscopic building material market from residential segment is anticipated to grow at 6.2% CAGR through 2032. Hygroscopic materials contribute to healthy indoor environments by preventing excessive moisture, mold, and mildew growth.
U.S. hygroscopic building material market size held over USD 170.8 million in 2022. Stringent energy efficiency regulations and goals in North America encourage the use of materials like hygroscopic building materials that passively regulate humidity and reduce HVAC energy consumption.
