Strontium is a mineral found in seawater and soil. Strontium can be mainly obtained from seafood, but it can also be found in small amounts in whole milk, wheat bran, meat, poultry, and root vegetables. Strontium is similar to calcium. Strontium is quite common in nature, according to the Minerals Education Coalition (MEC) it is the 15th most abundant element in Earth's crust. Strontium occurs in about 0.03 percent of all igneous rock, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS). Bromine occurs in compounds present in sea water, natural brines and salt-lake evaporates. The strontium bromide or SrBr2 can be prepared from strontium hydroxide and hydrobromic acid. Alternatively, strontium carbonate can also be used as a strontium source. The strontium bromide is divided into 2 types, strontium bromide hexahydrate and strontium bromide anhydrous. The strontium bromide hexahydrate is an inorganic salts containing water molecules combined in a definite ratio as an integral part of the crystal which have crystallized the metal complex with strontium bromide. The strontium bromide hexahydrate is used as a pharmaceutical intermediate.
The pharmaceutical intermediate market is a blooming field in the production of drugs around the world. Leading biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical manufacturing companies are focusing on improving their product footprint globally. These companies are focusing on strengthening their product reach in different countries across the world through various distribution channels. For instance, in July 2018, Pfizer, which is pharmaceutical company announced about the investment of around US$ 500 million to build a sterile injectable plant in Portage, Michigan. The heavy investments made by the pharmaceutical companies is driving the demand for pharmaceutical intermediate and it will also benefit the global strontium bromide market growth.

Key Trends and Analysis of the Strontium bromide Market
Among regions, Asia Pacific accounted for a significant market share in 2026. Asia Pacific is generating the maximum revenue over US$ 45.23 million compared to any other region in 2020, driven by gradual rise in consumption of strontium bromide and its compounds in pharmaceuticals, analytical reagents and flares industries in countries including India and China. China registered the largest procurement of Celestine in the world from its mines which was over 350 kilo tons in 2016. Moreover, increasing use of firecrackers in these countries on festive occasions is a prominent factor towards high regional product demand. In addition, China and India are major producer of fire crackers, which substantially contributes in the regional industry growth directly augmenting the global strontium bromide market growth.
Key News
- In January 2026, researchers from IIT Bombay and IISER Thiruvananthapuram developed a sunlight-charged wearable thermal battery for cold Himalayan regions. The lightweight fabric patch absorbs solar energy, stores it as heat, and releases warmth after sunset without electricity or wires. Using a PEG-PSAA polymer and graphene oxide, the prototype achieved about 97% heat-storage efficiency, 50 Wh/kg energy density, and stable performance across more than 300 charge-discharge cycles during laboratory testing.
- In April 2026, researchers reported a scalable manufacturing method for strontium bromide hexahydrate–vermiculite composite materials. The material was produced through a relatively simple dry-mixing and shaping process for thermochemical heat storage below 90°C. This development addresses manufacturing scalability, material handling, and structural stability challenges that have restricted the commercial deployment of strontium bromide-based thermal batteries.
Key Takeaways of the Market
- The others segment of applications of strontium bromide includes manufacturing of flares accounts for 15.66% share of the global market in the year 2026. Growing demand for firecrackers and pyrotechnic activities during concerts, festivals or any sort of celebrations will inevitably augment the strontium market size in the forecast period. Additionally, it is also widely used in making flares and flare guns that has its applications in defense industry globally.
