Cristobalite Market By Form (Granular, Powder), By Application (Glass and Cermaic, Building and Construction activities, Paints and Coatings, Foundry, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031
The global cristobalite market was valued at $36.3 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $56.6 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2022 to 2031.
Cristobalite is a mineral polymorph of silica that is obtained at 1,500°C through calcination and iron-free grinding process. Cristobalite is found in sufficient quantities in nature mainly in volcanic rocks. It is synthetically produced from sand by heating a kiln at 1500 degree centigrade for commercial purposes. It is mainly offered in the form of powered/ sand and grain form. Cristobalite has a wide range of applications in various end-use industries including architecture, paints and coatings, metal casting, industrial, ceramic, and fiberglass industries, and others.
Increase in global population, improvement in standard of living, rise in purchasing power of consumer have led them to seek for unique construction material for designing their homes. Ceramics are one of the distinctive materials used in both residential and commercial construction including tiles, washbasins, kitchen countertops, and others where grounded cristobalite is used extensively as glassifying and melting agent. In addition, it helps in maintaining the melting point in respectable ranges and gives hardness to ceramics and helps in decrease their thermal expansion capacity. Therefore, the demand for cristobalite has increased in the growing ceramic industry.
However, workers and manufacturers get habitual exposure to powder form of cristobalite in industrial sector that may lead to risk of developing acute and chronic disease such as silicosis, lungs disease, cancer, and others. For instance, according to an article published by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in April 2022, it has set some standards and regulation on use of cristobalite due to which manufacturers have switched their production capacities to lower extent. This is predicted to hamper the growth of the cristobalite market.
On the contrary, production of cristobalite consumes high energy hence, the company named as Grenzebach Group follows tailor-made technology, and state-of-the-art technology for energy efficiency processes where energy costs can be cut and resource consumption can be sustainably reduced. The adoption of sustainable technology will boost the potential sales of the cristobalite market; thus, offering lucrative opportunities for the market.
