Report Insights

  • Insufficiency of drinking water, growing population, and increasing awareness on air purification in developing countries such as South America and China can be attributed to the growth of the global activated carbon market.
  • Purchasing managers must engage with suppliers that provide effective reactivation services. Reactivation of used/spent carbon involves the same procedure as required in the manufacture of activated carbon where the used carbon is thermalized and adsorbed organics are volatilized/pyrolyzed.
  • Production of activated carbon involves the use of additives and chemicals that may not be permitted in end-user applications such as water, food, and beverage purification. Therefore, purchasing managers find it difficult to evaluate the adherence of suppliers to varying regulations.

Activated Carbon Pricing Trends

The unit pricing and fixed pricing are the two widely accepted pricing models in the activated carbon market. The unit pricing offers transparency in discounts/prices as prices are based on the quantity purchased. Furthermore, it allows purchasing managers align procurements with manufacturing cycles easily as the products can be obtained in varying quantities as per buyers' requirements.

The fixed pricing model minimizes budget forecasting and planning efforts for purchasing managers as the total price per unit for a product is fixed for the contract period. This pricing model also helps eliminate efforts in constantly monitoring market price.
