Publication Month: Sep 2021 | Report Code: TIPRE00014611 | No. of Pages: 126 | Category: Chemicals and Materials | Status: Published

The dolomite market is projected to grow from US$ 21,727.97 million in 2020 to US$ 28,558.14 million by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% during 2021–2028.

Dolomite is an important material for ferro-alloys industries, and it is widely used in iron and steel plants. It also has vital application in the agriculture sector due to its ability to act as a soil conditioner and to balance the soil pH. The oil & gas, chemicals, rubber, mining & metals, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics are among other important end users of this substance. As these industries are witnessing considerable growth, especially in developing economies, the demand for dolomite is also growing continuously. However, adverse effects of mining activities on environment remain a concern for dolomite producers.

In 2020, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of the global dolomite market. The rapid growth of industrialization is driving investments in transport infrastructure in this region. Further, a rise in refractories production is propelling the demand for dolomite in the iron and steel industries in Asia Pacific. The region is home to the largest economies such as China and India, which are among the world’s largest consumers of refractories. China is a major producer of steel in the world, while India is witnessing an exponential growth in infrastructure. Thus, these factors are providing several growth opportunities for the dolomite market players in region.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Dolomite Market

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has drastically altered the status of the chemical and materials sector and negatively impacted the growth of the dolomite mining market. The implementation of measures to combat the spread of SARS-CoV-2 has aggravated the situation. Industries such as construction, and iron and steel have been impacted by the sudden distortion in operational efficiencies and disruptions in the value chains attributable to the sudden shutdown of national and international boundaries. A significant decline in the growth of the several industrial sectors has led to reduced demand for dolomite. The shutdown of mining operations has created a hampered annual production performance. The long-term effects of COVID-19 pandemic on the mining industry will depend upon the length of lockdown periods and the ability of the industry players to resurge. As many countries are planning to revive their operations, the demand for dolomite is expected to rise globally in the coming months. The dolomite mining market players are focusing on the availability of supplies and manpower to achieve full operational levels.
