Europe Ion Exchange Resin Market Size 2022-2027:

Europe Ion Exchange Resin Market accounts for a significant share in the world. It will be valued at around USD 2 billion and is expected to grow at a CAGR under 4% in the foreseen period between 2022 and 2027.

Drivers and Restraints of Ion Exchange Resins Market:

Benefits of cationic resins have improved in processes such as de-alkalization, demineralization, etc. a lot, Rapid urbanization in European countries has caused a huge demand for water purification techniques for which the ion exchange industry plays a crucial role. The ion exchange industry also plays an important role in the nuclear power sector which is also quite popular in European countries.

Factors holding back the market are:

The ion exchange industry is affected by volatile prices and alternatives. There can be numerous alternatives to the demineralization process and other industries do not solely depend on the Ion-exchange industry for their functioning. As a result, this is not the strongest industry in Europe and gets easily overshadowed by its North American and Asian counterparts.
