Increasing Need in Sanitary and Ceramic Sector Boosts Kaolin Market

The kaolin market was USD 4,734.3 million in 2023, which will increase to USD 6,557.9 million, growing at a 4.9% compound annual growth rate, by 2030.

The growth of this industry is boosted by its surging utilization as a pharmaceutical ingredient as well as the rising need in sanitary and ceramic sectors. 

The paper category, on the basis of application, led the industry, and it will propel at a 5.3% CAGR, during this decade. Kaolin is employed broadly in the paper sector as a coating element, as it provides whiteness as well as improves the finished look of the paper.



Another widespread application of this chemical in paper production is filling. It is utilized as a filler to enhance fiber length and paper printability, by improving ink absorption, enhancing roughness, and reducing pigment holdout and tinting tendency. 

The hydrous category, based on grade, was the largest contributor to the kaolin market, with a 35% share in 2030. The manufacturing procedure is long and requires sorting, crushing, slurring, shifting, centrifugation, and grinding to achieve the anticipated residue, purity, brightness, and particle size; magnetic treatment, and drying. 

However, a decrease in impurities and a rise in brightness are attained in these means, which assists in this category expansion.

APAC is leading the industry, and it is likely to observe the highest growth, of 5.2%, in the years to come. This can be because of the constant industrialization as well as economic expansion, both of which are driving construction activities and people’s salaries. 

China, India, Vietnam, South Korea, and Malaysia are the major contributors to this industry, because of the surging consumption of refractories, cement, paper, and ceramics.

Moreover, Germany is leading the European industry, the U.K., on the other hand, is advancing at the fastest CAGR.

North America will be a significant contributor to the industry in the coming years, because of the rising rate of technological developments and increasing disposable salaries. 

With the surge in demand from the sanitary as well as ceramic sectors, the kaolin industry will continue to grow in the years to come.
