"The global cold storage market size is anticipated to reach USD 212.54 billion by 2025 expanding at a CAGR of 12.2%. The retail sector in emerging economies, such as India and China, is getting more organized and this trend is expected to augment the demand for cold storage over the forecast period. Government policies to deregulate the entry of foreign companies have increased the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the retail sectors of such regions. Organized retail stores use better refrigeration and improved storage technology than the traditional stores. Thus, consumers are increasingly purchasing frozen foods from these retail stores. With the increased demand for chilled and frozen foods and rapidly expanding of the organized retail sector, the demand for the cold storage solutions is expected to grow over the projected period. The organized retail supports different outlet formats depending on spending power and proximity from major residential and consumption clusters. The offline mode of the organized retailing is categorized into convenience stores, supermarkets, and hypermarkets based on the product range and surface coverage. On the other hand, lack of power hook-ups for reefer trailers at transportation hubs and ports coupled with the lack of reliable power supply for cold warehouses further increases the operation costs."

"The global Sodium Silicate Market is estimated to witness a staggering growth during the forecast horizon; i.e. between 2017 and 2028. Sodium Silicate is used in the manufacture of silica gel and soaps detergents. It is also used in cement concrete mixture, as a fire proofing material, wall coating, and as a sealant. It has also found its application in textile and pharmaceutical industries. The raw materials required for preparing sodium silicate consist of silica sand and soda ash which are locally available, thus, reducing the investment costs on raw materials. The market has also witnessed demand from pulp and paper factories. Its future demand will rise due to a growing demand from end-user industries like pulp and paper mills, soap and detergent, paint, pigment, and adhesive manufacturers. Numerous research activities have been conducted on the principles of cleaning processes, serving to establish the value of sodium silicates as detergents. The soaps and detergents segment held a major chunk of the revenue share and is estimated to continue to develop further by the year 2028. PQ Corporation offers a complete line of products, including storage, maintenance, handling, and distribution support to its clients."
