Silica Sand Market: Key Takeaways

Rising Demand in Construction:

Silica sand is the primary structural component in a wide variety of building and construction products. Silica sand is used in flooring compounds, mortars, specialty cement, stucco, roofing shingles, skid-resistant surfaces, and asphalt mixtures for binding. Moreover, ground silica performs ads durability and anti-corrosion and weathering properties in epoxy-based compounds, sealants, and caulks. The significant growth in initiatives such as smart cities in countries such as India, the US, and so on is set to boost the demand for silica sand. In February 2023, the Indian government allocated approximately $2.67 billion (USD) to metro projects nationwide in the Union Budget 2023-24. This includes equity investment of $645 million, subordinate debt of $191 million, and pass-through assistance of $1.82 billion, is further expected to boost business growth.

Demand for Glass Manufacturing:

In the construction sector, silica sand is a crucial ingredient in concrete, mortar, and asphalt, essential for building infrastructure, residential, and commercial projects. The rapid urbanization and industrialization in emerging economies are driving construction activities, thereby boosting the demand for silica sand. This is also driving demand for glass used in construction buildings. In the glass manufacturing industry, high-purity silica sand is a critical raw material for producing various types of glass, including flat glass, container glass, and specialty glass used in automotive, construction and solar panel industries. The growing emphasis on energy-efficient buildings and renewable energy sources like solar power is further fueling the demand for high-quality silica sand, making the construction and glass manufacturing sectors pivotal in driving the growth of the silica sand market.
