The North America superabsorbent polymers market size was USD XX Billion in 2022 and is likely to reach USD XX Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 6% during 2023–2031. Growth of the market is attributed to rising hygiene awareness.
Superabsorbent polymers are water-absorbing polymers used in a variety of industries including agriculture, disposable hygiene, horticulture, pharmaceuticals, and others. SAPs, as a bio-product, are ground-breaking solutions to rising chemical usage. The diaper and sanitary napkin industries use SAP because it can absorb a large amount of aqueous, water, and menstrual fluid. Hydrogel is being used to treat wastewater. Growing population and technological advancements have created a high opportunity for the SAP market to expand steadily.
