Calcium Carbonate Market Size & Trends

The global calcium carbonate market size was estimated at USD 47.53 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6% from 2024 to 2030. Increasing demand for paper from hygiene-related products like tissue paper and packaging applications is a major growth driver for the market. However, the product demand witnessed a decline in 2020 owing to the outbreak of the coronavirus. The pandemic caused widespread shutdowns across the globe, which significantly impacted the economy worldwide in the first half of 2020. With the ease in restrictions in the second half of the year, companies are putting in extra efforts to resume their operations, which is a positive sign for market growth.

U.S. Calcium Carbonate Market size and growth rate, 2023 - 2030

The U.S. has been a prominent destination for the product considering high demand from industries including paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, and paper manufacturing. Paper is the largest application segment of the market and the U.S. is amongst the world’s largest paper manufacturers. Despite the pandemic that majorly impacted the country’s economy, the demand for calcium carbonate continues to persist, especially in the paper production sector owing to a growing emphasis on cleanliness.

Calcium carbonate is used to produce calcium citrate (citric acid), which is used as a food additive, a preservative, an acidifier, or a flavoring agent. It is used in applications such as cleaning agents, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and dietary supplements. It is also used to adjust the pH value of water through the neutralization process. Untreated water is passed through filters, which contain calcium carbonate, the material dissolves in the water and raises its pH levels to greater than 6. The demand for treated drinking water is rising with an increase in population, which is expected to drive the use of calcium carbonate as a water-treating ingredient in the coming years.

The calcium carbonate market has been hampered by supply chain instability, a slowdown in raw material production, trade movement slowing, and a decline in construction, vehicle, and paint and coatings demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Calcium carbonate demand is tied directly to numerous industries that are experiencing business uncertainty, such as automotive, paper, plastics, and building & construction.

A drop-in paper consumption from corporate offices, schools & universities, and the newspaper and printing industries have hampered the paper industry's growth. However, new application categories, including hygiene paper products, food packaging, medical specialty sheets, and corrugated packaging, have provided opportunities for the business, which is driving up demand for calcium carbonate, reducing the pandemic's impact to some extent.

According to the American Forest & Paper Association, the U.S. paper and wood products industry recorded high levels of tissue production in February and March 2020. The U.S. mills produced around 700 kilotons of tissue in March. Factors like lockdown and extra hygiene concerns led to panic buying and stockpiling of tissues and other cleaning products, thereby, benefitting the market growth.

Despite the demand for calcium carbonate in the paper segment, the market witnessed a dip in 2021 owing to restricted transportation, a halt in manufacturing operations for non-essential industries, and the shutdown of mines across various regions. Several market players reported negative sales and profits for the first half of 2021.

For instance, LafargeHolcim, an integrated player in the market, reported a 14% profit fall in Q1 of 2020 as the pandemic caused building sites to shut down around the world. The company mines limestone produces calcium carbonate and uses it to manufacture cement, which is further catered to the construction industry. The company had to stop its mining activities in March 2020 in Meghalaya, India due to lockdown; however, the operations resumed after a couple of months as mining activities were allowed by the state government with the enforcement of social distancing norms and proper hygiene conditions.

Market Concentration & Characteristics

Market growth is driven by rising in demand for paper from packaging applications and hygiene related products like tissue paper.  Calcium carbonate is a versatile material that finds its use in various industries. It is commonly used for producing concrete and ceramic materials. Additionally, it is used as a filler and additive in manufacturing paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and plastic materials. Due to the increased demand for construction materials such as marble, tiles, and concrete in residential and commercial buildings, the market value for calcium carbonate is rising.

Calcium Carbonate Market Concentration & Characteristics

The global calcium carbonate market is fragmented. The market is characterized by many big and small vendors, making it moderately competitive. The major player's geographic presence is comparatively large with large production facilities. While small regional players operating in this market also account for notable shares. During the forecast period, the competition level in the market is expected to remain moderate. This is due to the low level of innovation and moderate R&D prospects among vendors.

Type Insights

The ground calcium carbonate segment dominated the market with a revenue share of 68.70% in 2023. This growth is attributed to the fact that when compared to other inorganic powders, GCC powder is relatively affordable and possesses superior whiteness, inertness, and incombustibility, as well as low oil- and water adsorption. It is commonly utilized in polymer composites to enhance physical properties and improve workability. Simultaneously, the cost of polymer composites can be significantly reduced by replacing expensive resins with affordable GCC fillers.

Precipitated calcium carbonate is another segment witnessing fastest growth over the period. It is a novel lime-derived substance with numerous industrial applications. It is produced by the hydration of high-calcium quicklime and reacting the resultant slurry with carbon dioxide. The finished product is bright white with homogeneous narrow particle size dispersion. PCC is available in a variety of crystal morphologies and sizes that can be adjusted to enhance performance in a particular application. Applications of PCC include food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, rubbers, PVC/plastics, paints, adhesives & sealants, and thermal & electrical insulators. It is also used as a substitute for additives and wood pulp for manufacturing high-quality paperboard and paper as it is a cost-effective mineral.

Application Insights

The paper segment emerged as the largest application segment in 2023 and accounted for a revenue share of around 41.69%. Calcium carbonate is added as a filler to the paper pulp or is applied as a coating pigment. Its addition enhances the brightness and opacity of the paper. Although the internet did impact the print media market, it did not restrict the demand for paper in other applications, such as packaging and tissue paper.

Global Calcium Carbonate Market share and size, 2022

The current pandemic has compelled manufacturers to ramp up their production to cater to the rising consumer needs.For instance, in August 2020, Celulosa Argentina announced an increase in its production of paper packaging by 30%. The company’s focus was on the food industry as the demand surged in this sector. With a rise in the e-commerce sector and growing usage of tissue papers, the paper application segment is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period.

Building & construction is another segment witnessing growth over the forecast period. The global construction industry is a fast-growing sector, however, the outbreak of COVID-19 and the lockdown imposed by governments hampered the expansion of the construction industry. With the opening up of markets, the sector gained momentum immediately. According to Oxford Economics, the global construction industry is expected to grow to reach ~USD 8 trillion by 2030 and will be mainly driven by, the U.S. and India. The growth is attributed to the high demand for better public infrastructure such as rail transport systems, roadways, airports, and harbors, triggering demand for calcium carbonate over the forecast period.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific dominated the global market and accounted for the largest revenue share of more than 37.34% in 2023.

Calcium Carbonate Market Dynamics

Drivers: Growth Of Paper Industry In Asia Pacific Region

The Asia Pacific region, with its large population and high income levels, significantly influences the global paper industry due to a demand-supply imbalance. Market vendors are expected to focus on China and India due to the extensive use of calcium carbonate in their paper industries. The increasing distribution of newspapers and magazines in India is another factor that could boost market growth. Despite the pandemic-induced decline in the print media industry, the Audit Bureau of Circulation in India reported an average of 1,590,784 qualifying copies of English daily newspapers for 10 editions from January to June 2022. This can be attributed to the growing demand for regional print media in languages such as Hindi, Telugu, and Kannada. From 2006 to 2016, the demand for print media in these languages saw a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.7%, 8.2%, and 6.4% respectively. According to the Audit Bureau of Circulation, advertising revenue from print media is also expected to grow at a robust rate of 8% from 2016 to 2021. The revenue of Indian print media is projected to reach USD 4,039.3 million by 2021, as depicted in the graph below.

Growth Of The Construction Sector

Calcium carbonate, a key component in the production of adhesives, sealants, paints, coatings, and cement, is primarily used in the construction industry. The growing demand from this industry is expected to stimulate the production of these materials, thereby positively impacting the calcium carbonate market in the forecast period. The need for infrastructure upgrades is anticipated to boost the demand for calcium carbonate due to its use in paints, coatings, adhesives, and sealants. The above graph illustrates the total investments in residential and non-residential construction in Europe, expressed in USD Million. The rising demand from the expanding construction sector for various building materials is predicted to propel the growth of the calcium carbonate market. Infrastructure elements such as bridges and buildings generate significant demand for various construction materials, with calcium carbonate being a crucial raw material. Calcium carbonate also plays a vital role in cement production. Therefore, the growth of the construction sector is projected to impact cement production, subsequently affecting the demand for calcium carbonate.

Restrains: Issues Pertaining To Mining Industry

Marine limestone deposits in various parts of the U.S. are over 300 years old and contain about 95% chemical-grade calcium carbonate. However, not all areas have suitable limestone deposits, and the transportation distance increases the cost of the limestone. Truck shipping is more cost-effective than train or water shipping. Establishing new quarries and plants in the U.S. is a lengthy process. It takes approximately 2 years to set up a cement plant, and the permission process can take 8 to 10 years. These challenges limit the establishment of quarries, but many companies are still striving to expand and improve their plants. Most of the mined limestone is used for aggregate or crushed applications, with the majority of crushed stone in North America coming from limestone. Despite the increase in limestone production in the U.S., the country still imports several limestone products from countries like China, Mexico, and Canada. Rising transportation costs affect the prices of the final products. Apart from transportation issues, limestone contributes to the creation of many sinkholes and caves. Limestone dissolves on the surface due to rainwater or near-surface groundwater, especially in humid conditions where a large volume of limestone dissolves in water. These issues related to limestone mining are hindering market growth.

Research Methodology

A three-pronged approach was followed for deducing the calcium carbonate market estimates and forecasts. The process has three steps: information procurement, analysis, and validation. The whole process is cyclical, and steps repeat until the estimates are validated. The three steps are explained in detail below:

Information procurement: Information procurement is one of the most extensive and important stages in our research process, and quality data is critical for accurate analysis. We followed a multi-channel data collection process for calcium carbonate market to gather the most reliable and current information possible.

  • We buy access to paid databases such as Hoover’s and Factiva for company financials, industry information, white papers, industry journals, SME journals, and more.
  • We tap into Grand View’s proprietary database of data points and insights from active and archived monitoring and reporting.
  • We conduct primary research with industry experts through questionnaires and one-on-one phone interviews.
  • We pull from reliable secondary sources such as white papers and government statistics, published by organizations like WHO, NGOs, World Bank, etc., Key Opinion Leaders (KoL) publications, company filings, investor documents, and more.
  • We purchase and review investor analyst reports, broker reports, academic commentary, government quotes, and wealth management publications for insightful third-party perspectives.

Analysis: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilized different methods of calcium carbonate market data depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Research Efforts: Bottom-up Approach for estimating and forecasting demand size and opportunity, top-down Approach for new product forecasting and penetration, and combined approach of both Bottom-up and Top-down for full coverage analysis.

  • Value-Chain-Based Sizing & Forecasting: Supply-side estimates for understanding potential revenue through competitive benchmarking, forecasting, and penetration modeling.

  • Demand-side estimates for identifying parent and ancillary markets, segment modeling, and heuristic forecasting.

  • Qualitative Functional Deployment (QFD) Modelling for market share assessment.

Market formulation and validation: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilize different methods of data analysis depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Formulation: This step involves the finalization of market numbers. This step on an internal level is designed to manage outputs from the Data Analysis step.
