The global glass grade silica sand market size is expected to reach USD 8,272.60 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Glass Grade Silica Sand Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Fe Content (<100ppm, 100ppm to 1000ppm); By Applications; By End-Use; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

The glass-grade silica sand market is witnessing growth owing to the development of new glass products with specialized properties, such as low-iron glass and anti-reflective glass, which require even higher purity levels of silica sand, further boosting the demand for this material. The rise of renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, is another key driver of the glass grade silica sand market. Solar panels require high-quality glass components, which are made using glass grade silica sand. As governments worldwide promote the adoption of clean energy solutions, the demand for solar panels is expected to increase significantly, leading to higher consumption of glass grade silica sand.

The increasing demand for high-quality display panels, particularly those based on OLED technology, has led to a surge in the demand for glass grade silica sand, a critical raw material used in the production of display glass. The concentration of display panel manufacturing in China has further contributed to the growth of the glass grade silica sand market, with the country producing over 50% of the world's smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and other related products. As a result, the glass grade silica sand market has benefited from the expansion of the display industry, with heightened demand for high-purity silica sand that can meet the strict requirements of display glass manufacturing.
