Global Urea Market Report and Forecast 2023-2028

Global Urea Market Report and Forecast 2023-2028


Market Outlook

According to the report by Expert Market Research (EMR), the global urea market reached a volume of 175.59 MMT in 2022. Aided by the escalating demand for efficient fertilisers and the burgeoning applications of urea in multiple industries, the market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 0.92% between 2023 and 2028.

Urea, also known as carbamide, is an organic compound that is extensively used as a nitrogen-release fertiliser in the agricultural sector. It plays a crucial role in promoting plant growth and overall crop health. Beyond its nutritional properties, urea boasts excellent solubility and non-toxicity, making it a valuable ingredient in a variety of industrial applications, including the automotive, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

The soaring consumer preference for high-yield fertilisers is a key driver catalysing the global urea market growth. With the increasing awareness of the benefits associated with nutrient-rich fertilisers, there has been a significant shift towards nitrogen-rich fertilisers, leading to a surge in demand for urea-based products. Additionally, the rising necessity for improved crop yield to cater to the escalating global food demand has further contributed to the soaring popularity of urea.

The expanding applications of urea in diverse industries also play a significant role in boosting the urea market development. In the pharmaceutical industry, urea is utilised as a diuretic and in the treatment of dermatological disorders. The cosmetic industry employs urea for its hydrating and exfoliating properties, which are vital in the formulation of various skincare products. Moreover, urea's properties as an effective denaturant make it a crucial component in the manufacturing of cosmetics, adhesives, and paper.

Furthermore, the growing demand for AdBlue or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) in the automotive industry, which employs urea as a primary component, has led to an increased focus on urea. With the rise of stringent emission standards and increasing popularity of diesel vehicles, urea, through DEF, has emerged as a critical factor in reducing harmful nitrogen oxide emissions, thereby propelling the urea market expansion.
