The global active calcium silicate market size is expected to reach USD 203.0 million by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing demand from ceramic industry is key growth factor driving market. In addition, presence of fire safety standards in major economies such as U.S., Germany, China, India, and Brazil are further fueling the demand over the forecast period.
Active calcium silicate is used as a safer alternative to asbestos in high temperature insulation applications. Industrial equipment insulation and grade piping is fabricated from active calcium silicate. Moreover, major application segments include cement, ceramics, paints & coatings, fire protection, and insulation. Due to its superior technical properties such as low thermal conductivity and excellent thermal shock resistance; it is widely used for industrial high temperature insulation.
In terms of volume, insulation was estimated as the largest application segment in 2016 and is anticipated to continue the trend by 2025 with a CAGR of 5.9% from 2017 to 2025. It is widely used owing to its advantageous characteristics such as high strength, efficient water repellence, microstructure, better water absorption and thermal stability.
The demand for active calcium is expected to boost owing to a positive outlook for construction industry over the forecast period. In addition, the presence of regulations and guidelines pertaining to fire safety standards in a commercial and residential building in the European region is further fueling the market growth.
