Limestone Market Size Worth USD 9.98 Billion 2027| CAGR of 6.1%

 According to a new report by Reports and Data, it is projected that the global limestone market will achieve a value of USD 9.98 billion by 2027. The increasing demand from the construction sector is identified as one of the main drivers for this growth. Calcium carbonate, derived from limestone, is extensively used in construction as a building material, lime aggregate for roads, ingredient for cement, and in the preparation of builder's lime through combustion in a furnace.

Presently, over 2 million metric tons of lime are consumed annually for road construction, dam building, and soil enhancement at construction sites. Lime facilitates rapid soil improvement during construction and also contributes to long-term soil enhancements. However, market growth may be impeded by health risks associated with calcium carbonate. The paper industry exhibits a strong preference for limestone due to the growing demand for brighter and larger paper. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness market stimulation driven by increased demand for paper packaging and tissue products.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted the global limestone market in 2020, primarily due to industrial production halts in segments that had significant market share demand in 2019. Nonetheless, the trends discussed in the global market study are expected to hold true after the pandemic.

The pulp and paper industry, a major market segment for limestone, experienced supply chain disruptions and production shutdowns, resulting in a downgraded outlook. Construction activity suspensions could have lasting effects. While the industry anticipates a near-normal state before the end of 2020, the negative demand shock caused by the crisis is expected to persist.

Additional notable findings from the report include:

  • The growth of the market is propelled by increased construction activity in emerging economies and infrastructure development initiatives. The wide-ranging applications of limestone in various industries, along with its advantages such as durability, high strength, corrosion resistance, and easy availability, contribute to its market penetration. However, the health risks associated with calcium carbonate can impede market growth.
  • The industrial application of lime in the production of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) like toothpaste, cosmetics, sugar, as well as in products like glass, floor tiles, paper, and pharmaceuticals, has been a significant market driver.
  • Environmental regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and heightened awareness of global warming are expected to have a critical impact on the market in the coming years. The cement industry, for instance, emits a significant amount of carbon dioxide during the clinker manufacturing process. The lime, iron, and steel manufacturing sectors are also significant sources of carbon dioxide emissions.
  • The North America region holds a substantial share of the limestone market, driven by increased construction activities and infrastructure reconstruction, including highways, bridges, and buildings in the United States.

Key participants in the market include Tarmac, Lhoist, Schaefer Kalk GmbH & Co. KG., CARMEUSE, Fels-Werke GmbH., Elliot Stone Company, Inc., Graymont Limited, Atlantic Minerals Limited, LafargeHolcim, and Sumitomo Osaka Cement Co., Ltd, among others.
