Global Defoamers Market Size Demonstrates a Substantial 6.12% CAGR, Making Contributions to Elevated Production and Quality Control Costs

The market for defoamers is expected to be driven by an increase in the use of paper-based products in the packaging sector over the forecast period. Additionally, there would be significant opportunities for market expansion due to the demand from subsectors like specialty paper, packaging paper, and industrial paper.


New York, United States, Oct. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Defoamers are chemical additives that prevent the production of foam in industrial settings. Defoamers prevent macro-foam formation and significant air occlusions in waterborne formulations. Foams typically form when gas is dispersed in liquids during various industrial processes. The global defoamers market size is projected to reach USD 5.39 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.12% during the forecast period (2022–2030).,” stated by Research Manager at Straits Research P. Ltd.

Key Drivers

The market for defoamers is expected to be driven by an increase in the use of paper-based products in the packaging sector over the forecast period.
