Urea Market anticipated to witness healthy CAGR over 2019-2025: Global
Market Insights, Inc.
According to a new research report by the market research and strategy consulting
firm, Global Market Insights, Inc, Urea Market size is set to grow steadily in the
projected timeline owing to its application in agriculture as fertilizer. The product is also
known as carbamide and has highest nitrogen content amongst all solid nitrogenous
fertilizer making it favorable agriculture utility across arable land. The product is also
used to produce resin finds application in melamine synthesis, laminates, adhesives
and paints. Its usage in automotive, medical, explosive, deicing, polymer and chemical
industries is likely to drive urea market demand by 2025.
Carbamide is colorless organic hygroscopic solid which is either odorless or contain
hint of ammonia smell. Industrial production of carbamide takes place by dehydrating
ammonium carbamate derived from reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide. The
product is made available in crystal, pill or granular form with primary application in the
agriculture sector. It has tendency to form porous framework that can trap
hydrocarbon compounds which can be utilized for separating mixtures and can also
be used in production of aviation fuel and lubricating oil.

Carbamide finds application in agriculture sector as a fertilizer owing to its property to
release nitrogen into the soil. It has over 45% nitrogen content that exhibit lowest
transportation cost per nitrogen nutrient. Carbamide can also be used in horticulture
and irrigated crops including grain and cotton crops owing to its flexibility as it can be
spread directly or mixed with water. The product can be spread through irrigation
channels and sprays to achieve uniform spread. Decline in arable land for cultivation
owing to rapid urbanization and industrialization would propel the demand for fertilizer
for higher gains. Global nitrogenous fertilizer market is set to surpass USD 115 billion
by 2024 thereby driving urea market demand.
Urea market is poised to witness substantial growth owing to its application in
controlling air pollution by the selective catalytic reaction process. Diesel engine
running at higher temperatures helps to react nitrogen and oxygen to form nitric oxide,
a greenhouse gas. Water solution of the carbamide is injected into hot engine exhaust
decomposing into ammonia and carbon dioxide. Ammonia derived from carbamide is
reacted with nitic oxide to produce nitrogen which dilute the effect of global warming.
Blue Tec technology by Daimler AG utilizes this process to equip heavy diesel vehicles
including lorries, busses following vehicular emission norms. The vehicles are fitted
with urea tanks and engines are equipped for advanced NOX reduction. Strict
government norms applicable to vehicular emission combined with rapidly expanding

automobile industry is likely to fuel urea market share. Global automotive catalytic
reactor market is poised to reach USD 270 billion by 2024 which may boost carbamide
market size.
Urea market size is anticipated to witness gains owing to its usage in treatment of nail
problems and dry or rough skin conditions including psoriasis, eczema, callus and
corns. The product is a known keratolytic which increases moisture in the skin and can
be used to heal wounds and remove dead tissue while keeping water in the skin, thus
stimulating product demand in forecast timeline.
The product is mixed with compounds including carbon 14 and carbon 15 which finds
utilization in medical application. It can be used for blood urea nitrogen test to measure
content and determine presence of Helicobacter Pylori bacteria presence in human
stomach. Growing spending in healthcare and medical infrastructure by government
is likely to boost pharmaceutical market size, thereby driving carbamide demand.
Global skincare and dermatology market size is anticipated to surpass USD 90 billion
by 2028, thus further propelling urea market revenue.
Product usage in resins, adhesives explosives and chemical feedstock along with
application as stabilizer in nitrocellulose explosives & cloud seeding agent is likely to
foster industry growth. The product act as a component in animal feed, plankton
nutrient and fire extinguishers owing to its high nitrogen content. It is an ingredient in
many commercial products including dish soap, teeth whiteners, cigarette, pretzels
and hair removers. Cosmetic utilization of product includes hair conditioners, skin
softener, bath oils and lotions. These factors are likely to stimulate industry growth in
forecast timeframe.
Product manufacturing can lead to environmental issues pertaining to leakage of
ammonia in air or water owing to improper plant maintenance which could lead to
health hazard. Exposure of the product could lead to skin irritation including redness
itching and pain. Chronic exposure could lead to moderate emphysema, weight loss
and high incidence protein metabolism. These factors are likely to affect industry
profitability in projected timeframe.
North America led by Mexico, Canada and the U.S. urea market size is poised to grow
steadily in the projected timeframe owing to its application in agriculture, medical care
and cosmetics. The U.S. has the highest health care spending per capita and would
positively influence market growth. U.S. dermatology market is poised to surpass USD
20 billion by 2028, thus driving regional product demand.
Europe led by Spain, UK, France and Germany market is set to grow steadily within
the projected timeframe. Stringent environmental norms regarding vehicle production
along with growth of automobile catalytic reactor technologies using carbamide
concentration is likely to favor industry growth by 2025.
Asia Pacific led by Japan, India and China urea market is anticipated to grow
significantly owing to growing demand from agriculture sector. Rapid urbanization and
growing industrialization has led to land constraints for agriculture. Growing demand
