Market Overview:
The global diatomaceous earth market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for diatomaceous earth from various applications such as filter aids, fillers, absorbents, construction materials and others. Additionally, the growing awareness about the benefits of using diatomaceous earth is also contributing to the growth of this market. Some of the major players operating in this market are Diatomite Mines Pty Ltd., Imerys SA, EP Minerals LLC., American Diatomite Inc., and Jilin Jiutai Mineral Co.
Product Definition:
Diatomaceous Earth is a naturally occurring, soft, siliceous sedimentary rock that is easily crumbled into a fine white powder. It has a high porosity and surface area due to its microscopic pores and fractures. Diatomaceous earth consists of the fossilized remains of diatoms, which are single-celled algae that lived in marine and fresh water environments.
The importance of Diatomaceous Earth is that it can be used as an absorbent, filter material, or abrasive agent.
Diatomite Particles:
Diatomite particles, also known as diatoms or silica sand, are extremely small and porous. They have a particle size of 0.1 to 2 mm and pore sizes range from 1 to 100 microns.
Diatomite Powder:
Diatomite powder is a natural mineral, which is made up of silica and available in different forms such as white, grey or brown. It has applications in various industries including food & beverage, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics among others. Diatomite powder acts as an excellent absorbent for oil & grease and can be used to cleanse the skin.
Application Insights:
The demand for diatomaceous earth in various applications including filter aids, fillers, absorbents, construction materials and others is projected to grow at a significant rate of 5.0% over the forecast period owing to its properties such as high porosity (99.5%), good adsorption (adsorb) ability on gases and liquids, low hygroscopic property and high thermal stability which make it an ideal product for filtration application in industries such as oil & gas and water treatment among others.
Diatomite is used as a filler material in paints & coatings industry owing to its superior characteristics such as abrasion resistance, chemical inertness against organic solvents and oils which makes it suitable for use in automotive paints. The increasing demand from the automotive industry will drive growth over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
North America was the second-largest regional market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position through the forecast period owing to increasing product demand from various end-use industries, such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and others. In North America, filter aids are projected to witness a significant increase in consumption over the forecast period due to rising concerns regarding water filtration process contaminants.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest growing regional markets during the same period on account of rapid urbanization coupled with increasing disposable income levels in emerging economies including China and India. Growing awareness about health hazards associated with contaminated drinking water has resulted into increased demand for purification products; which will further propel growth over next eight years or so.
Europe also held a considerable share of global market revenue owing to high application scope involving use as an animal feed additive by farmers across countries like Germany.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for organic food products is expected to drive the growth of the diatomaceous earth market over the forecast period.
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using diatomaceous earth as a natural pesticide is another key factor that is expected to fuel market growth during the forecast period.
- Growing demand for environmentally friendly and non-toxic products is also anticipated to propel market growth in the near future.
- The increasing use of diatomaceous earth in various end-use industries such as agriculture, automotive, and healthcare is also projected to boost market growth over the next few years. 5) The growing popularity of diatomaceous earth among consumers owing to its numerous health benefits is another major factor that would fuel market expansion during the forecast period
