It is derived from quartz that breaks down into minute granules by the gradual movement of wind and water. It also contains aluminum, feldspar and iron-bearing minerals. As silica sand is resistant against heat and chemicals, it finds various applications in the construction industry. Besides this, it is also used in water filtration, industrial casting, sandblasting, building roads, and paints and coatings across the globe.
We are regularly tracking the direct effect of COVID-19 on the market, along with the indirect influence of associated industries. These observations will be integrated into the report.
Global Silica Sand Market Trends:
Due to the mechanical properties of silica sand, it is extensively utilized in the production of fiberglass, which is further employed in the automotive industry. This, in confluence with the escalating demand for automobiles on account of the growing global population and inflating income levels, represents one of the key factors impelling the market growth. Apart from this, governments of several countries are offering substantial subsidies to silica sand manufacturers, which is also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, key players are focusing on technological advancements to introduce lightweight glazing glass, nanotechnology in flat glass, and solar control glazing for building glass. At present, the market has been negatively impacted by the sudden outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the consequent lockdowns imposed by governing authorities of numerous countries across the globe. These agencies are promoting the adoption of social distancing measures due to which manufacturing units in various industry verticals have been temporarily closed. However, the market is expected to grow again once normalcy is regained. Looking forward, the market value is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period (2022-2027).
