Global Sizing Agents Market Market Size
The market for sizing agents was valued at US$3.42 billion in 2020 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5.4% to reach US$5.79 billion by 2030.
The sizing process involves applying adhesive material to paper or cloth to impart specific properties, such as increased abrasion resistance, strength, defense against chemical, mechanical, or environmental deterioration, and liquid resistance. Fibers are made acceptable for printing by reducing their porosity by applying sizing agents. These substances strengthen the fiber's resistance to fluids like water seeping through. To give paper water resistance and printability through surface application, surface scaling agents are commonly utilized. These agents are used on a variety of paper and paper board materials.
