Pune, India, December 2017/MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future Published a Half-Cooked Research “Global Active Calcium Silicate Market Research Report - Forecast to 2022” - Market Analysis, Scope, Stake, Progress, Trends and Forecast up to 2022.    

Active calcium silicate Market – Market Overview

Active calcium silicate is gaining high importance in the construction industry owing to superior properties such as low thermal conductivity and thermal shock resistance. It is extensively used in fire protection and acoustic insulation sector replacing asbestos in high-temperature insulation applications. Increasing government regulations towards fire safety standards coupled with penetration of passive fire protection in infrastructure activities is expected to positively influence market growth.

Active calcium silicate is used in building brick and board form of electric furnaces, blast furnaces and oil refineries. Moreover, rising penetration of high-temperature insulation in end-use industries such as steel and petrochemical industry will further boost the market growth. Active calcium silicate is prepared through raw materials such as limestone, sodium silicate and hydrochloric acid. These materials act as intermediates in processing other chemical compounds and help provide structure and surface to active calcium silicate. Thus, dynamics of these aforementioned raw materials significantly impact the prices of active calcium silicate market.

Robust industry growth of ceramic industry owing to rising modern structure in housing sector also anticipated to drive the product demand over the forecast period. These products are used in flooring owing to its characterizes such as lightweight, high hardness and resistance from thermal and shock. Furthermore, rising product penetration in false ceilings and roofing tiles for the construction industry and automotive plants is projected to drive market growth. Increasing government expenditure for building airports, roads and harbours are expected to provide lucrative opportunities to manufacturers. In addition, increasing developments in residential and commercial projects in emerging markets such as China, India and Brazil are anticipated to fuel the market growth over the forecast period. Europe is leading region in active calcium silicate market owing to advanced technology and stringent regulations towards product standards and quality of products. Initiatives taken to preserve historical monuments by providing special paints & coatings to protect from fire and corrosion will boost the demand for active calcium silicate in the coming years. Asia Pacific is second largest market. China is the leading producing country in the active calcium silicate market due to strong industry base including rubber, paints & coatings and plastic industry. In addition, rising consumer awareness towards decorative walls and ceilings for better aesthetic appearance is anticipated to propel the global active calcium silicate market. Changing trade statistics in South Africa will boost the demand of active calcium silicate market growth.

Additionally, regulatory trends laid by OSHA and NIOSH towards product exposure can hinder the market growth. Excess exposure to products can cause severe damage to human health. These regulations are pertaining to high manufacturing cost, thereby leading to hamper market growth.
