Asia–Pacific is the largest chlorine market globally, with China being the largest contributor in the region. As of 2013, Asia-Pacific accounted for 53% of the global demand for chlorine. Among the end-users, EDC/PVC producers accounted for the highest consumption of chlorine. Other growing end uses of chlorine consumption include phosgene for manufacturing isocyanates. Chlorinated intermediaries and inorganic chemicals will also drive the regional demand during the forecast period.

Europe ranks second in the global demand for chlorine, accounting for a little more than 20% of the total demand. The majority of chlorine demand came from EDC/PVC and inorganic chemical industries in this region. The mercury-cell technology is still used in the region to manufacture chlorine, though in coming years it will be replaced by membrane cell technology.
