Key Market Trends
Growing Demand for Building & Construction Industry
- Calcite mineral is widely used in building & construction and is expected to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period.
- Calcite is abundantly available primarily as limestone and in metamorphic form as marble. Calcite is formed in the earth's crust due to both chemical precipitation of calcium carbonate and from the transformation of shells, choral and algal debris into calcite.
- In modern construction, calcite in the form of limestone is used to produce cement and concrete. Marbles impart beauty to home which is available in a variety of colors and patterns, increasing demand for marbles in flooring, kitchen tabletops, and bathroom countertops are expected to drive the market. They are used in commercial as well as in residential buildings.
- The construction industry in the United States continued to expand in the future, owing to a strong economy and positive market fundamentals for commercial real estate, along with an increase in federal and state funding for public works and institutional buildings.
- Furthermore, the construction industry in India has received a major boost by the investment of USD 1.4 billion through private equity and venture capital investments during October 2019.
- The growing need for infrastructure development in emerging economies is expected to drive the market for the calcite during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific Region to Dominate the Market
