Sodium silicate finds application in ample number of industries covering food and healthcare, detergents, paper and pulp, elastomers and in many other areas. In paper industry, it is used in binding items such as corrugated board, Angleboard and in paperboard laminates. The product is used in food industry as basic food additive to prevent clumping and caking to allow powder flow even more easy. It is utilized as an ingredient in cake mixes, powdered soups, powdered milk etc. Although one of the major applications of the product is in adhesives as a result of high silica content in them. The material removes small amount of water which is converted form liquid to solid. The added advantage of these adhesives is their improved ability to expand and adjust in broad range and in forming a rigid layer which is strong and permanent.
 

In Europe, the sodium silicate market demand is expected to arise from paper & pulp and healthcare industry. Product demand in Germany is driven by increasing use as a filler in elastomers sector. In developing countries such as in India, the demand is expected to arise form growing detergent and other FMCG product demand in the country. Furthermore, sodium silicates are generally utilized as sealers in concrete countertops which is one of the reasons driving its demand in construction sector. North America is also expecting an increase in product demand due to rising investment in building and construction sector and due to minor tax cuts and rising consumer spending.
 

Few sodium silicate market participants are BASF SE, Glassven C.A, Agrigenic Chemicals, Inc., M. Huber Corporation, OxyChem Corporation, PPG Industries, Inc, PQ Corporation, Malpro Silica Private Limited, Glassven C.A. etc. The companies are keen to invest in order to enhance their product portfolio to gain competitive edge over others. For instance, W.R. Grace & Co with a joint venture with Chevron Products Co invested around USD 135 million to enhance capacity at existing manufacturing facility in lake Charles. The existing plant is engaged in the production of alumina and sodium silicate.
