Helium One raised £3m to develop the Pinyon Canyon helium and CO2 processing plant in Colorado. The plant has a nameplate capacity of 44,500 Mcf CO2 per month and aims for full output by end‑2027, with CO2 sales expected to start in Q1 2027 after liquefaction unit commissioning. This upcoming supply increase is likely to ease CO2 prices.
Retail anhydrous ammonia prices in Illinois have risen significantly compared to both last year and two years prior, reaching levels only seen once in the past decade. High nitrogen fertilizer costs are creating strong economic incentives for farmers to reduce application rates, though historical data shows many farmers have been slow to adjust rates downward even when prices are elevated.

Asia
In Asia, ammonium bicarbonate prices saw moderate declines during the fourth quarter of 2025. Most production facilities in China and India ran at regular output, keeping supplies plentiful. Buyers were selective, as demand from fertilizers and chemicals remained limited. Occasional maintenance at some plants created short-lived upward pressure, but the overall market trended lower. By the end of the quarter, prices had settled at slightly reduced levels due to steady supply and cautious purchasing.
Europe
In Europe, the market for ammonium bicarbonate remained fairly calm, with slight downward movement in prices. Industrial consumption was moderate, and the seasonal drop in agricultural use contributed to weaker demand. Imports continued to bolster availability, preventing any strong price hikes. While energy costs and transportation delays caused some minor local fluctuations, the overall trend was a gentle decline compared with the previous months.
North America
North American ammonium bicarbonate prices edged down modestly during the quarter. Supply from domestic producers stayed sufficient, and most plants maintained their usual production rates. Agricultural demand softened as the year ended, and industrial buyers focused on immediate needs rather than stocking up. This combination of steady supply and cautious purchasing led to a small reduction in prices, which remained mostly stable within a narrow range.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, Ammonium Bicarbonate prices are expected to hold steady, with only minor shifts unless there are changes in production or demand patterns.

During the third quarter of 2025, the ammonium bicarbonate market showed an overall weak performance, with limited price movements and low buying activity across major sectors. Throughout the quarter, producers maintained relatively stable operating rates, resulting in consistent supply. However, demand remained soft across the board, especially from agriculture and food-grade applications, which typically influence seasonal demand.
Industrial usage was steady but not strong enough to boost prices. Agricultural consumption, which often increases ahead of planting seasons, stayed muted for most of the quarter. This kept inventories from drawing down at a healthy pace, adding pressure on prices. Market participants were cautious, mostly buying based on immediate needs rather than building stock.
A short-lived improvement was seen in late July when production at a few plants slowed due to maintenance. This slightly tightened availability but was not enough to change the overall market direction. In August and September, prices trended lower again as supply outweighed demand and downstream sectors continued purchasing conservatively.
One indirect factor was the subdued availability of carbon dioxide a key raw material for ammonium bicarbonate. Though upstream input prices saw occasional firmness, the lack of strong demand kept any cost pressure from significantly affecting finished product prices.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, prices of Ammonium Bicarbonate are expected to remain steady with mild fluctuations. A small improvement could occur if agricultural demand picks up in the coming months, but a stronger recovery will depend on how industrial demand evolves.
Ammonium bicarbonate is a highly water-soluble salt of ammonia as it readily dissociates into ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water. In the food industry, it acts as a leavening agent as it releases carbon dioxide, which helps in dough rise. In addition, ammonium bicarbonate is used as a chemical reagent in a range of industrial and scientific settings, a pH regulator, and a fire suppressant in specialty extinguishers.
