Global Peracetic Acid (PAA) Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Peracetic Acid (PAA) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 843 million in 2025 to US$ 1261 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2025 to 2031.

Peracetic acid (also known as peroxyacetic acid, or PAA), is an organic compound. It is a clear colorless liquid with a characteristic pungent odor reminiscent of household vinegar. All commercially available PAA products contain equilibrium of PAA, hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, and water. Its formula is CH3CO3H.

The rising global focus on hygiene, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic, has driven the demand for disinfectants. Peracetic acid's strong antimicrobial properties make it a preferred choice in sectors like healthcare, food processing, and water treatment.

Compared to chlorine-based disinfectants and other traditional chemicals, peracetic acid breaks down into acetic acid and water, making it an environmentally friendly option. This aligns with increasing regulatory pressure for more sustainable and eco-friendly chemicals in various industries.

Peracetic acid is widely used in the food industry for sanitizing equipment, processing lines, and even for treating water used in food production. As consumer awareness of food safety and hygiene increases, the demand for effective sanitization methods like peracetic acid grows.

Market Challenges:

Regulatory Challenges: Stringent regulations in some countries regarding the use of disinfectants and sanitizers may limit the growth of the peracetic acid market. Compliance with varying global regulations and standards adds complexity to the production and distribution of peracetic acid.

Alternatives and Substitutes: The availability of alternative disinfectants and sanitizers, such as chlorine dioxide, ozone, and quaternary ammonium compounds, presents a challenge to the widespread adoption of peracetic acid. The cost-effectiveness and user-friendliness of these alternatives may pose competition to peracetic acid in certain applications.
