소포제 시장 규모, 점유율 및 동향 분석 보고서 : 제품별, 용도별, 지역별 및 부문별 전망(2026-2033년)

The global anti-foaming agents market size was valued at USD 6.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow from USD 6.4 billion in 2026 to USD 8.8 billion in 2033, at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2026 to 2033. Asia Pacific dominated the market, accounting for a revenue share of 44.0% in 2025. This is due to rising consumption of the product in industries such as food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, and textiles, which rely on anti-foaming agents to maintain smooth operations and ensure product quality by reducing foam formation during manufacturing.

Anti-foaming agents are chemical additives designed to minimize and control foam formation in the processing of liquids and beverages. They are particularly important in breweries, where they are utilized during fermentation to enhance efficiency, and are also employed by companies involved in juice production. Consequently, the growth of the brewery and beverage sectors is significantly influencing both the market value and volume of anti-foaming agents during the forecast period.

Antifoaming agents are widely used in the paper and pulp industry to minimize foam formation during manufacturing. The rising demand for paper and pulp, particularly for packaging applications, is expected to drive growth in the antifoaming market in the coming years. The increasing use of paper-based materials in flexible packaging is a significant driver of this market. For instance, in June 2025, Evonik Industries AG introduced TEGO Foamex 8051, a new siloxane-based defoamer for waterborne coatings, reflecting increasing demand for efficient foam-management solutions in packaging-related manufacturing processes.

Environmental concerns also play a significant role; some defoamers, particularly those based on silicones or petroleum-derived oils, can pose challenges regarding biodegradability and ecological impact. For instance, in March 2025, Evonik Industries AG launched TEGO Foamex 812 eCO, a mass-balanced sustainable defoamer developed to reduce the carbon footprint of coatings and ink formulations while maintaining effective foam-control performance.
