Calcium carbonate is a key ingredient for modern construction, used in the mixing of mortar to hold roofs, concrete blocks, rubber, and bricks. Growing urbanization and infrastructural developments, especially in developing economies are expected to increase the demand for calcium carbonate. On average, the overall construction-related spending contributes to around 13% of global GDP and as per Research Nester analysis, the global construction market is expected to reach USD 20.2 trillion by the end of 2032.
Calcium Carbonate Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Rapid advancements paints and coatings sector: The paints and coatings industry is rapidly expanding due to rising building and construction projects and rising vehicle production globally, driving the demand for advanced coatings and paints for aesthetics and protection. Calcium carbonate is widely used in paints and coatings as it improves opacity, weather resistance, and sheen. Several companies are investing in advanced eco-friendly coatings with low VOC. For instance, in September 2023, Eco-shell announced its plan to elevate calcium carbonate to eco-friendly heights which can be used in the paints and coatings applications.
- Rising applications of calcium carbonate in the agriculture industry: Calcium carbonate is widely used in the agricultural sector as it improves soil health by reducing soil acidity and maintaining pH levels. The growing adoption of organic farming, rising need for efficient solutions to increase agricultural production, and increasing awareness of the benefits of calcium carbonate among farmers are expected to fuel market growth going ahead.
Challenges
- Rising challenges associated with logistics and supply chain: The bulky nature of calcium carbonate often leads to higher transportation and storage costs. This can be an issue while targeting remote agricultural or industrial regions. In addition, farmers and industries in many developing countries might have limited knowledge about the benefits of calcium carbonate, resulting in slow adoption rates. This in turn might affect global market growth.
- Declining paper industry due to digitalization: Due to the widespread use of calcium carbonate as a filler in writing and printing paper, newspaper paper, and paper packaging applications, the sector is facing a challenge from the expanding digitalization. The growth of digitization and electronic publishing has had a significant negative impact on the paper sector. The transition to paperless communication and digital media in the majority of industrialized economies over the past five years has resulted in a decline in the global paper sector, affecting the growth of the calcium carbonate market.
Calcium Carbonate Segmentation
Type {Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) [Coated Ground Calcium Carbonate, Uncoated Ground Calcium Carbonate], Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC)}
The ground calcium carbonate market is estimated to hold the largest revenue share during the forecast period owing to its versatility and wide-ranging applications in construction, paper, animal feed, and rubber sectors. Ground calcium carbonate is frequently employed to boost durability and save costs by substituting or extending the use of costly raw materials. Several key players are focused on expanding their production units to cater to rising demand. For instance, in April 2023, Omya AG announced its plans to invest USD 25 million in its advanced calcium carbonate factory in Gujarat, India. This investment underscores Omya’s commitment to meeting the increasing demand for high quality GCC products in the region.
End use Industry (Paper, Plastics, Paints & Coatings, Adhesives & Sealants)
Based on end use, the adhesives and sealants segment is likely to register rapid revenue growth between 2025 and 2037. This growth can be attributed to factors such as high demand for cost-effective fillers in adhesives and sealants, growing inclination towards eco-friendly products in adhesive formulations, and rising need for specialty adhesives and sealants for industries such as aerospace, electronics, and healthcare.
