Future Prospects of Ground And Precipitated Calcium Carbonate Market and Industry Forecast
During the forecast period, the global ground and precipitated calcium carbonate market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.4%. The market is anticipated to be worth US$ 24,442.70 million in 2022 and US$ 41,357.6 million by 2032.
The rise
in demand for plastic and paper products in the packaging industry over the
anticipated period is driving up demand for ground and precipitated calcium
carbonate on a global scale. Additionally, expanding operations in the rubber,
construction, and pharmaceutical industries have recently fueled the global
market share for ground and precipitated calcium carbonate.
Calcium
carbonate is one of the most abundantly occurring minerals on earth and
composes nearly four percent of earth’s crust. It exists naturally in the form
of limestone, marbles and chalk formed by sedimentation over a period of time.
It is one of the most versatile compounds and finds a variety of applications
across a diverse set of industries including construction, steel, and agrochemicals
among others.
Two of
the prominent types of calcium carbonate that have found significant commercial
applications are fine ground
calcium carbonate and precipitated calcium carbonate. Derived from
calcium carbonate, these compounds find application primarily as mineral
fillers for plastics, paints & coatings, rubbers & elastomers among
others.
Besides,
fine ground calcium carbonate and precipitated calcium carbonate are also used
as pigments, processing aids, extenders, and impact modifiers across
industries.
Although
the two product types serve similar range of applications, there do exist
several distinctions among the two that drive the preference for one type over
the other for certain specific application areas.
Precipitated
calcium carbonate is composed of relatively smaller sized particles, is
relatively brighter and also has relatively higher calcium carbonate content as
compared to fine ground calcium carbonate.
The two
calcium carbonate types are produced either by processing naturally occurring
minerals or by synthetic route wherein chemical process is adopted to produce
the desired product type.

Global
Ground and Precipitated Calcium Carbonate Market Dynamics
In terms
of market volume, global ground and precipitated calcium carbonate market is
expected to witness a steady growth, registering a moderate single digit growth
compounded annual rate during the forecast period.
This
forecast growth in consumption of ground and precipitated calcium carbonate is expected
to primarily be attributed to steady growth in demand from end use industries
based in Asia Pacific region.
Thus,
steady growth of construction sector coupled with forecast steady growth of
global automotive production is expected to positively impact the consumption
of ground and precipitated calcium carbonate across end use industries.
Moreover,
steady growth in demand from plastics and rubber industries is expected to
propel the global ground and precipitated calcium carbonate market over the forecast
period.
However,
relatively sluggish to slow growth of paper industry, major ground and
precipitated calcium carbonate consuming industry, across key markets such as
Europe and North America is likely to act as an impediment to growth of global
ground and precipitated calcium carbonate market during the forecast period.
Also,
relatively slower economic growth is expected to restrain the growth of the
market in the initial phase of the forecast period.
Global
Ground and Precipitated Calcium Carbonate Market: Regional Outlook
Moreover,
on the basis of key geographical regions, global ground and precipitated
calcium carbonate market has been segmented in to North America, Latin America,
Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle East & Africa, Japan, and Asia
Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ).
Among the
aforementioned regional markets, consumption of precipitated and ground calcium
carbonate is expected to be dominated by APEJ region, spearheaded by China. A
steady growth is expected to be registered by ground and precipitated calcium
carbonate market in the region during forecast period
Global
Ground and Precipitated Calcium Carbonate Market Players
A major
