The global kaolin market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period, to reach USD 3.2 billion by 2030. The growth of the global kaolin market is driven by factors such as increasing demand for paper and ceramics, growing construction industry, and increasing demand for rubber and plastics.
Hard kaolin accounted for the largest share in the global kaolin market in 2017, followed by soft kaolin and sandy kaolin. Hard kaolins are used in paper production due to their high purity levels which provide better quality paper sheets with less defects than other types of clay minerals such as bentonite or talc. Soft Kaolins are used in ceramic production due to their low shrinkage rates which provide better quality ceramic products with less defects than other types of clay minerals such as ball clay or talc. Sandy Kaolins are used as fillers in paints due to their low cost compared to other types of clays such as ball clay or bentonite that have higher shrinkage rates when drying out after application on surfaces.
-The global population is growing, which means more people are using products that contain kaolin. -Kaolin is used in a variety of products, including paper, paint, and plastics. -China produces the most kaolin in the world. -Kaolin can be found in many different colors and textures. -The price of kaolin has been steadily increasing over the past few years due to increased demand for it from China's construction industry.
