Market Overview:
The global Kieselguhr market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for Kieselguhr in various applications such as filter aids, fillers, absorbents, construction materials and others. Additionally, factors such as rising population and rapid industrialization are also contributing to the growth of the global Kieselguhr market. However, volatility in prices of raw materials is restraining the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Kieselguhr is a type of diatomaceous earth. It is made up of the fossilized remains of unicellular algae called diatoms. Kieselguhr is used as an absorbent, abrasive, and filtration agent.
Anhydrous Substance:
Anhydrous substance is a material that contains no water molecule. It can be either found naturally or manufactured chemically. Anhydrous substances are used in various end-use industries such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics among others.
Baked Product:
Baked products are natural mineral fillers that are used in the manufacturing of plastics and elastomers. Kieselguhr is a type of baked product, which is produced from lime and clay. The most commonly used material for producing kieselguhr is calcium carbonate (CaCO3). It has high demand in various end-use industries such as construction, automotive, packaging, agriculture and food processing among others.
Application Insights:
The filter aids segment led the global kieselguhr market in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Filter aids are used in various industries including oil & gas, chemical, paper & pulp, and mining among others. The rising demand for filters owing to their use in air filtration applications is expected to drive the product demand over the next few years.
Kieselguhr is used as a filler material in paints and coatings industry owing to its ability to reduce surface tension which helps paint or coating spread easily on surfaces. It also acts as a dispersing agent when mixed with latex or alkyd paints making them easier to apply on substrates such as metal foils, plastic laminates etcetera. Rising application of these products by painters dueto their excellent properties such as abrasion resistance along with high pigment load carrying capacity will further propel its consumption duringthe forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing construction activities in emerging economies, such as China and India. In addition, rising disposable income levels are anticipated to fuel product demand across various end-use industries, thereby driving the Asia Pacific kieselguhr market.
The Asia Pacific filter aid segment is projected to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to rapid industrialization coupled with stringent government regulations aimed at reducing pollution levels in major urban cities of China and India. Rising awareness regarding health hazards caused by exposure to harmful particulates at work places is also expected drive product demand across this region during the forecast period.
Europe held a substantial share of global industry revenue due for its well-established automotive manufacturing base along with growing filter aid production capacity mainly driven by Germany, France.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from water treatment industry as a filtration media is driving the growth of the global kieselguhr market.
- Rising demand for kieselguhr in paints and coatings, agriculture, and other industries is also propelling the growth of this market.
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using kieselguhr as a filtration media is fueling its adoption in various industries worldwide.
- The increasing use of synthetic fibers and resins in place of natural fibers is restraining the growth of this market to some extent.
