簡介目錄

2025 年工業尿素市場價值為 1.9537 億噸,預計從 2026 年的 1.9887 億噸成長到 2031 年的 2.1729 億噸,在預測期(2026-2031 年)內複合年成長率為 1.79%。

工業級尿素-市場-IMG1

市場溫和成長的趨勢反映出市場格局日趨成熟,成本主導生產經濟效益與日益成長的永續性期望之間已達到平衡。需求成長主要由農業部門推動,而柴油引擎廢氣處理液 (DEF) 和工程木樹脂的新增需求則使收入來源更加多元化。能源價格波動、主要生產商之間的整合以及更嚴格的排放目標主導著戰略討論,而旨在整合綠色氨的工藝創新有望確保企業的長期競爭力。

全球工業尿素市場趨勢與洞察

柴油引擎廢氣處理液(DEF)的日益普及正在改變對技術級DEF的需求。

商用車排放氣體法規正大力推動柴油引擎廢氣處理液(DEF)的普及,光是中國國六排放標準就預計到2025年DEF消費量將達到2,500萬噸。歐洲企業正將DEF生產線整合到現有的氨和尿素生產聯合裝置中,例如CF Industries的Blue Point計劃(該計畫將於2029年起每年額外生產140萬噸低碳氨)。這為應對化肥需求的季節性波動提供了防禦性保障,並支撐了DEF的溢價。北美車隊將遵守美國環保署(EPA)2027年的相關法規,將進一步支撐中期需求。同時,建築和採礦業的非道路設備也將擴大其潛在市場。整體而言,DEF的興起將促使部分工業尿素市場轉向高純度產品,從而間接提高利潤率並鼓勵對精煉基礎設施的投資。

綠色氨的整合重塑生產經濟格局

歐盟RED III指令要求在2030年可再生氫的佔比達到42%,這將加速低碳氨的普及應用,並透過電解槽成本和再生能源創造新的收入來源。 Stamikabon公司的NX Stami綠色氨模組在日產量50-500噸的規模下,可將資本支出(CAPEX)降低25-30%,有助於建立區域供應基地,縮短運輸距離並減少範圍3排放。中東的先導計畫旨在將太陽能電解與尿素合成相結合,這標誌著尿素生產模式正從單一地點的巨型工廠轉向其他模式。早期採用者可以在受碳排放監管的出口市場中獲得合規優勢,並與尋求低碳供應鏈的食品飲料公司簽訂銷售合約。長遠來看,這些進展可望降低工業尿素市場受天然氣價格飆升和碳排放成本衝擊的風險。

天然氣價格波動威脅生產獲利能力。

現貨天然氣價格從2022年的每百萬英熱單位6.54美元波動至2023年的每百萬英熱單位2.66美元,對原料成本佔現金成本70%至90%的生產商造成了影響。在2022年能源危機期間,歐洲工廠將運轉率限制在75%,並將貿易流向中東供應商。以頁岩氣為基礎的美國業者享有結構性成本優勢,而淨進口地區在價格飆升期間則面臨負利潤。避險策略、雙燃料能力以及對綠色氨的投資已成為新的應對措施,但這需要大量的資金和政策支持。

細分市場分析

2025年,肥料級尿素佔工業尿素市場的84.65%,預計到2031年將以1.83%的複合年成長率成長。技術級尿素的市佔率較小,但由於柴油引擎廢氣處理液(DEF)需求不斷成長,預計其成長速度將加快,在預測期內將成長130個基點。飼料級尿素滿足反芻動物的營養需求,並對純度有嚴格的要求。池式冷凝反應器等製程創新可將資本支出(CAPEX)降低高達30%,並實現產品組合多元化,從而快速適應利潤率的波動。

柔軟性至關重要,因為它使柴油引擎廢氣處理液 (DEF) 和三聚氰胺的需求與作物生長週期脫鉤,從而平抑收入的季節性波動。獲得汽車級尿素認證的生產商符合 ISO 22241 品質標準,並享有持續的溢價。另一方面,化肥生產商由於補貼和環境因素,仍受到應用限制。這種差異解釋了為什麼在整個預測期內,技術級尿素將成為工業尿素市場規模中成長最快的部分。

工業尿素市場報告按等級(肥料級、技術級、飼料級)、終端用戶行業(農業、化學、汽車、醫療及其他終端用戶行業)和地區(亞太地區、北美、歐洲、南美以及中東和非洲)進行細分。市場預測以噸為單位。

區域分析

亞太地區在工業尿素市場規模中佔據主導地位,預計到2025年將達到66.10%的市場佔有率,這主要得益於作物投入品的需求以及印度和中國對尿素水溶液(DEF)的日益普及。印度計劃在2025年實現尿素自給自足,預計隨著印度本地生產規模的擴大,其進口依賴度將降低。

中東和非洲地區將以2.33%的複合年成長率實現最快成長,直至2031年。這主要得益於沙烏地阿拉伯、埃及和阿爾及利亞低成本的天然氣原料以及面向出口的產能擴張。新建的氫氣生產綜合體正在整合綠色氫氣試點生產線,以確保未來的碳排放競爭力。由於天然氣價格上漲和脫碳政策的影響,歐洲的市場佔有率正在萎縮,迫使一些工廠實施季節性調整或減產,增加了對北非和美國進口氫氣的依賴。

北美地區需求穩定,這主要得益於豐富的頁岩氣資源以及重型車輛廣泛使用柴油廢氣處理劑(DEF)。貿易格局持續變化,政策限制導致中國2024年上半年出口下降90%,造成東南亞和拉丁美洲現貨供不應求。中東產油國迅速填補了這一缺口,鞏固了其作為搖擺供應商的地位。長期來看,亞太地區仍將維持主導地位,但隨著永續性和國內供應優先政策重塑對外貿易格局,其成長速度將會放緩。

第7章 市場機會與未來展望

簡介目錄
Product Code: 61699

The Industrial Grade Urea Market was valued at 195.37 Million tons in 2025 and estimated to grow from 198.87 Million tons in 2026 to reach 217.29 Million tons by 2031, at a CAGR of 1.79% during the forecast period (2026-2031).

Industrial Grade Urea - Market - IMG1

The market's modest trajectory reflects a mature landscape balancing cost-driven production economics with rising sustainability expectations. Demand growth flows mainly from agriculture, yet a new pull from diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) and engineered-wood resins diversifies the revenue base. Energy-price volatility, consolidation among large producers, and stricter emissions targets dominate strategic conversations, while process innovations aimed at green ammonia integration promise longer-term competitiveness.

Global Industrial Grade Urea Market Trends and Insights

Rising Diesel Exhaust Fluid Adoption Transforms Technical Grade Demand

Commercial vehicle emission standards underpin a robust uptake of DEF, with China's National VI regulations alone expected to lift DEF consumption to 25 million tons in 2025. European players are integrating DEF lines into existing ammonia-urea complexes, illustrated by CF Industries' Blue Point project that will add 1.4 million tpy low-carbon ammonia from 2029. This defensively hedges against seasonal fertilizer swings and supports premium pricing. North American fleets following EPA 2027 rules further reinforce a medium-term demand floor, while off-road machinery in construction and mining extends the addressable market. Overall, DEF's rise shifts a portion of the industrial-grade urea market toward higher-purity products, indirectly raising margins and encouraging investments in purification infrastructure.

Green Ammonia Integration Reshapes Production Economics

The European Union's RED III requirement for 42% renewable hydrogen by 2030 accelerates low-carbon ammonia adoption, turning electrolyzer costs and renewable power availability into new profit levers. Stamicarbon's NX Stami Green Ammonia modules slash CAPEX 25-30% at 50-500 t per day scale, enabling regional supply hubs that shorten freight routes and curb scope 3 emissions. Pilot projects in the Middle East aim to couple solar-powered electrolysis with urea synthesis, signaling a shift away from single-site mega-plants. Early adopters gain compliance advantages in carbon-regulated export markets and secure offtake agreements from food and beverage firms seeking lower-footprint supply chains. Over the long term, these developments could moderate the industrial-grade urea market's exposure to natural-gas price spikes and carbon costs.

Natural Gas Price Volatility Threatens Production Viability

Spot gas swung from USD 6.54/MMBtu in 2022 to USD 2.66/MMBtu in 2023, exposing producers whose feedstock can constitute 70-90% of cash costs. European plants curtailed utilization to 75% amid the 2022 energy crisis, redirecting trade flows toward Middle Eastern suppliers. U.S. operators with shale-based gas benefit from structural cost advantages, whereas net-importing areas confront negative margins during price spikes. Hedging strategies, dual-fuel capabilities, and green ammonia investments are emerging defenses but require substantial capital and policy support.

Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

  1. Technical Grade Applications Drive Premium Segment Growth
  2. Emerging Asia Fertilizer Demand Sustains Long-term Growth
  3. Environmental Regulations Constrain Application Growth

For complete list of drivers and restraints, kindly check the Table Of Contents.

Segment Analysis

Fertilizer grade accounted for 84.65% of the industrial grade urea market in 2025 and is forecast to expand at a 1.83% CAGR to 2031. The technical grade slice, while smaller, accelerates on DEF demand, potentially lifting its share by 130 basis points within the outlook period. Feed grade addresses ruminant nutrition niches with stringent purity needs. Process innovations such as pool-condenser reactors lower CAPEX by up to 30%, enabling multiproduct configurations that respond swiftly to shifting margins.

Flexibility matters because DEF and melamine demand decouple from crop cycles, smoothing revenue seasonality. Producers certified for automotive-grade urea meet ISO 22241 quality thresholds, commanding sustained premiums. In contrast, fertilizer producers remain exposed to subsidy regimes and environmentally driven application caps. This divergence underlines why technical grade is the fastest growing component of the industrial grade urea market size across the forecast.

The Industrial Grade Urea Market Report is Segmented by Grade (Fertilizer Grade, Technical Grade, and Feed Grade), End-User Industry (Agriculture, Chemical, Automotive, Medical, and Other End-User Industries), and Geography (Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, South America, and Middle-East and Africa). The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Volume (Tons)

Geography Analysis

Asia-Pacific dominated the industrial-grade urea market size with a 66.10% share in 2025, driven by India's and China's crop inputs and rising DEF uptake. Local production expansion in India aims for self-sufficiency by 2025, potentially trimming import reliance.

The Middle East and Africa region posts the fastest 2.33% CAGR through 2031, fueled by low-cost gas feedstock and export-oriented capacity additions in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Algeria. New complexes integrate green-hydrogen pilot lines to future-proof carbon competitiveness. Europe's share contracts amid high gas costs and decarbonization policies; several plants operate seasonally or under curtailment, increasing import reliance on North Africa and the United States.

North America maintains steady demand, benefiting from abundant shale gas and ongoing DEF adoption in heavy-duty fleets. Trade patterns continue shifting: China's H1 2024 export volumes fell 90% following policy restrictions, creating spot shortages in Southeast Asia and Latin America. Middle Eastern producers quickly captured these gaps, affirming their swing-supplier status. Over the long term, Asia-Pacific retains leadership, yet its growth moderates as sustainability policies and domestic supply priorities reshape external trade.
