The Asia-Pacific region dominated the global market. The region's growing demand for personal hygiene and agricultural products has contributed to this dominance. China accounts for more than half of the SAP demand in this region. Japan has the region's second-highest demand for SAPs, with a more than 20% market share. China is one of the world's biggest consumers of personal hygiene products. The high number of infants in the country and the rise in disposable income, which results in greater personal and hygiene care expenditures, can be attributed to the country's demand for personal hygiene products. Diapers for babies have become increasingly popular in China in recent times. More than one-tenth of the world's infant population is born in the country. Japan is a major supplier of high-quality baby diapers and adult incontinence products throughout Asia. Due to China and Japan's consistent economic growth, demand for Superabsorbent Polymers is expected to grow faster in the region as a whole in the coming years.

The European super absorbent polymers market is expected to witness significant growth due to the growing demand from the personal hygiene and healthcare sectors. The region has a well-developed healthcare infrastructure and is a major SAP consumer in wound care and medical products. The personal hygiene industry is also growing in the region, driven by increasing urbanization and adopting better hygiene practices.
