Many European and North American companies are focused on China and India to cater to the rising demand.

For instance, Kemira Ojy, a Finland-based company, has a manufacturing plant in Nanjing, China. The plant helps cater to the growing demand for water treatment chemicals in the APAC region. Such developments are expected to be vital for the growth of the peracetic acid market in this region.
