Sodium polyacrylate was the largest segment with a revenue share of 86% in 2023. Horizon Databook has segmented the Germany super absorbent polymer market based on sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylate/polyacrylamide covering the revenue growth of each sub-segment from 2018 to 2030.


Adult incontinence, feminine hygiene products and the baby diaper segment dominate the market. The product visibility of sustainable biodegradable superabsorbent has increased over the past few years owing to the rising demand for adult incontinence products, which have higher efficiency and liquid absorption properties. This is a major factor contributing towards to the expansion of the market in Germany.

However, the rising immigrant population, which is fairly young, is expected to provide major boost to the baby diaper segment over the forecast period. Strong consumer demand for healthy food products with low fat and cholesterol has been a major propelling factor for demand in the region.

Growing awareness towards naturally derived sweetening agents and their long-term benefits has also helped in propelling growth for super absorbent polymer based compounds over the past few years.
