Market Overview:
The global nepheline market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for nepheline in the ceramic and glass industries. Additionally, rising investments in the construction sector are also expected to drive the demand for nepheline over the forecast period. Based on type, Nepheline Syenite is estimated to account for a major share of the global nepheline market in 2018. This can be attributed to its widespread use as a raw material in various applications such as ceramics, glass and other industries. However, Nephelinites is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period owing to its growing demand from end-use industries such as construction and automotive sectors.
Product Definition:
a feldspar mineral, KAlSi3O8, that is a major constituent of some granites.
Nepheline Syenite:
- Nepheline syenite is a type of sedimentary rock that consists of microcrystalline and macrocrystalline quartz. It usually occurs in nodules or masses and is found primarily in crude oil fields. Nepheline syenite can also be referred to as “oil stone”, “petroleum stone”, or just plain “quartz”.
Nepheline Monzonite:
Nepheline monzonite is a mineral, which contains potassium (K), sodium (Na) and calcium (Ca) along with the oxygen (O). It has a chemical formula of K(ZrO)2. It occurs in colorless and transparent to translucent white crystals that are very hard.
Application Insights:
The ceramic industry was the largest application segment in the nephline market and accounted for a share of over 50.0% in 2017. The growth of this application segment is attributed to increasing demand from China, India, Mexico and Brazil which are major ceramics producing countries. Ceramic ware is one of the most widely used products by consumers as it offers stain resistance, durability and easy maintenance which makes it highly preferred among consumers.
Nepheline monzonite has been observed to be beneficial for improving productivity in glass manufacturing process owing to its ability to control temperature better than other raw materials such as soda ash or potash feldspar can do. Nephelinites have also been observed to improve productivity when added into barium silicate glasses (BKG) during cooling processes due largelyto their superior thermal stability & low melting point compared with barium silicate glass alone (BKG).
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global nepheline market in terms of revenue with a share of over 60% in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing demand for nephline products from countries such as Japan, India, and China. In addition, rising investments by major mining companies are anticipated to boost industry growth in this region. For instance, In January 2018, MMG announced that it had completed the acquisition of assets including patents and trademarks from BHP Billiton for an undisclosed amount with a view to developing these resources into a profitable business unit called Nephelinite Business Unit (NBU).
The Middle East & Africa is projected to grow at an exponential rate during the forecast period owing to high mineral exploration activities mainly due nephelinite deposits found across several countries such as South Africa and Tanzania which are yet untapped markets for manufacturers operating within this region.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for nepheline in the construction and manufacturing industries as a fluxing agent and filler.
- Growing popularity of nepheline as an ingredient in high-end cosmetics and personal care products.
- Rising demand from emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico.
- Increased use of nepheline in green technologies such as energy-efficient light bulbs and solar panels.
- Technological advancements that improve the efficiency of extracting nepheline from raw materials
