Global Andalusite Market: Overview

Andalusite is an aluminum nesosilicate mineral which belongs to sillimanite family and is generally found in metamorphic rocks. It is a polymorph of two minerals including sillimanite and kyanite and, is named after Andalusia, a province in Spain. Being polymorphic in nature, it has a chemical composition which is similar to sillimanite and kyanite with dissimilar physical structure.

Andalusite is primarily used for manufacturing of refractory materials as well as precursor for porcelain among these, it used in linings for incinerators, furnaces, spark plugs, kilns, reactors and, production of crucibles. Generally, andalusite forms under low pressure and high temperature and converts to sillimanite or kyanite at different temperature-pressure regime.

Global Andalusite Market: Dynamics

Increasing global demand for long lasting, high quality and low price refractories is expected to dominate and register the highest growth rate in terms of revenue of the target market over forecast period. In addition, increasing demand for steel and glass plants and production in developed and developing countries are some other key factors to drive growth rate and revenue share of the global andalusite market.

However, currency fluctuations, rising oil prices and, availability of substitutes such as bauxite are anticipated to be the potential barriers which may hamper growth of the global andalusite market to a certain extent. In addition, increasing buyer bargaining power, emphasis on high-quality products at low costs are expected to significant changes in the global andalusite market.

Global Andalusite Market: Segmentation

Among the type segments, the pink segment is anticipated to dominate steady growth rate of target market over forecast period. Among the application segments, demand for the steel industries segment is expected to account and register highest market share in terms of revenue of the global andalusite market over forecast period owing to rising trend of steel consumption and production that makes up the majority of demand for refractories and profitability of the refractories industry is influenced by investment in steel production and steel plants.

Global Andalusite Market: Region Analysis

Asia Pacific is expected to be the one of the largest andalusite market owing to the growing demand for refractories in the region, particularly in emerging economies including India and China. At present, China is the key producer as well as rapid increase in demand for end products such as glass, ceramic, cement and aluminum and consumer of refractories, primarily driven by the presence of a robust steel industry. Wherever, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, Turkey and Russia are some of the other potential andalusite markets which are projected to account and grow over forecast period.

Europe and North America are likely to be the moderate players in the consumption of refractories over the forecast period. The U.S. is anticipated to fuel significant growth over the forecast period owing to the growing demand for steel and glass products.
