Latin America, Middle East & Africa show promising expansion driven by public health initiatives and rising urbanization, with projected CAGRs of 4%–2.54%.

Usage Beyond the Table

While household use remains dominant, iodized salt is increasingly used in:

Food processing: Fortifying snacks, RTE foods, bakery items — to meet consumer demand for healthier, fortified products.

Animal feed: Improving livestock nutrition and productivity.

Water treatment: Tablet salts support industrial uses like water softening across municipalities and industrial sectors.

Pharmaceutical & chemical industries: As a raw ingredient for certain applications.

Trends & Innovation

1. Fortification Enhancements: Development of double-fortified salt (DFS), combining iodine with iron (and sometimes folic acid or B‑vitamins), brings multidimensional nutritional benefits—addressing both iodine and iron deficiency.
2. Advanced Stabilization: Techniques like microencapsulation and controlled release ensure iodine remains effective despite exposure to heat and humidity.
3. Specialized Forms: Growth in tablet salt for precision uses and micronized salts in niche food sectors (e.g., bakery, confectionery) capitalizes on convenience and health trends.

Smart packaging & traceability: Blockchain and QR-coded provenance could win consumer trust through transparency.

Public-private collaboration: Partnerships with governments, NGOs, and food manufacturers will expand reach in underserved areas.

Health & wellness integration: Positioning iodized salt as a "functional food ingredient" could deepen penetration in the growing nutraceuticals and wellness space.
