According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global PolyhexaMethylene Biguanide(PHMB) market size was valued at US$ 115 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 156 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 4.5% during review period.
Polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) is a highly effective, broad-spectrum, and low-toxicity polymeric disinfectant that kills bacteria and fungi by disrupting their cell membranes. It is colorless, odorless, safe, and does not induce resistance, making it considered a new generation of green disinfectant.
The main upstream raw materials include hexamethylenediamine, 1,6-dicyanoguanidine, sodium dicyanamide, and dicyanamide, with hexamethylenediamine being a key material affecting production costs.
Global sales are expected to reach several thousand tons by 2025, with low-concentration solutions (such as 20%) priced at approximately US$3,000 per ton. Powdered PHMB has a market price of US$20,000 per ton, with higher purity resulting in higher prices. Industry gross margins range from 18% to 30%.
The core advantage of PHMB lies in its non-leaching physical sterilization mechanism, which allows it to provide broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity while possessing extremely high stability and very low irritation to the skin and mucous membranes. Compared to some traditional disinfectants, PHMB itself has certain advantages in terms of safety and environmental friendliness, aligning with the trends of consumer upgrading and green production, and has become one of the best alternatives to traditional chlorine- and aldehyde-based disinfectants. Technological advancements in application fields have also created new demands, such as in the field of biomedical materials. The water treatment sector, as an important downstream market, also provides a solid foundation for industry growth due to its stable demand for high-performance bactericides.
