The global Bleached Sulphate Woodpulp market size is predicted to grow from US$ 52200 million in 2025 to US$ 55200 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 0.9% from 2025 to 2031.

Bleached sulphate woodpulp, also known as bleached kraft pulp, is a type of chemical pulp produced from wood using the sulphate (kraft) process. This process uses a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfide to dissolve lignin, the substance that binds wood fibers together. The resulting pulp is then bleached to remove residual lignin and other impurities, resulting in a bright white pulp. Bleached sulphate pulp is known for its high strength and is primarily used in the production of high-quality paper products such as printing and writing paper, tissue, and packaging.

The bleached sulphate woodpulp industry is undergoing significant changes driven by evolving market demands and environmental concerns. A key trend is the increasing demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly pulp production. This includes a shift towards using more sustainable forestry practices, reducing water and energy consumption in the pulping process, and minimizing the use of chlorine-based bleaching agents in favor of more environmentally friendly alternatives like elemental chlorine-free (ECF) or totally chlorine-free (TCF) bleaching. There is also a growing demand for pulp with specific properties tailored to different end-use applications, such as higher brightness, improved strength, and better printability. This is driving innovation in pulping and bleaching technologies. The rise of digital communication has impacted the demand for printing and writing paper, leading to a shift in focus towards packaging and tissue applications for bleached sulphate pulp. The industry is also facing challenges related to fluctuating raw material costs (wood), energy prices, and transportation costs. Furthermore, increasing global competition and stricter environmental regulations are putting pressure on producers to improve efficiency and reduce their environmental footprint. The growth of the bioeconomy is also creating opportunities for using wood pulp in new applications, such as bioplastics and textiles.
