Europe Barium Carbonate Market

Market Overview:

The Europe barium carbonate market size reached 241,470 Tons in 2021. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 435,480 Tons by 2027, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.24% during 2022-2027.

Barium carbonate refers to an odorless inorganic compound that is obtained from barite minerals. It is characterized by white color and is generally available in powder, granular and ultra-fine forms. It is widely utilized as a matting, crystallizing and flux agent in the production of tiles, specialty glass and bricks. Apart from this, it is used in the manufacturing of thermistors, multilayered ceramic capacitors, sensors, optical modulators and piezoelectric transducers. Furthermore, it also forms a key component in the production of ceramics and the treatment of salt brine.

The market in Europe is primarily driven by significant growth in the construction industry. In line with this, the increasing investments by the government of numerous countries across the region in infrastructural development projects are providing an impetus to the market growth. For example, the Government of Norway is heavily investing in the construction of numerous tunnels and bridges across the fjords, which is expected to create a positive outlook for the market. Furthermore, multiple key players in the region are also engaging in merger and acquisitions (M&A) activities to create numerous growth opportunities in the market. For instance, Latour Capital, a Paris-based company, has recently acquired Solvay’s barium businesses across Germany and Spain in an attempt to strengthen their market position. The widespread product utilization as a glazing agent in the manufacturing of ceramics is acting as another major growth-inducing factor across the region.
