The United States ground and precipitated calcium carbonate industry is poised for steady growth, with revenues expected to rise from USD 4,468.3 million in 2023 to approximately USD 6,435.6 million by 2033, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.7%. This expansion is driven by increasing demand across industries such as paper, plastics, paints, and coatings, where calcium carbonate is valued for its cost-effectiveness, versatility, and performance-enhancing properties. Ground calcium carbonate (GCC) is preferred in applications requiring bulk materials, while precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) offers higher purity and finer particle size, meeting specialized needs in premium products. This steady demand is anticipated to fuel market growth over the next decade.
The United States ground calcium carbonate (GCC) business is dominant due to the country’s abundant natural reserves of limestone and marble, which are the primary sources of GCC. The availability of these resources provides a consistent and reliable supply base for the production of GCC.
Several factors are expected to drive sales growth in the United States through 2033. These include rising need for cost-effective fillers and rapid expansion of industries like construction, paper, paints & coatings, and pharmaceuticals.
Calcium carbonate is a key ingredient in industries such as paper, plastics, paints and coatings, adhesives, and construction. The wide range of applications contributes to its widespread use and prevalence.
Calcium carbonate, especially GCC, is often favored for its cost-effectiveness compared to other materials. The production process for GCC is generally less expensive, making it a cost-efficient choice for industries where pricing considerations are crucial, contributing to its dominance in the country.
Calcium carbonate is witnessing a higher demand in the paper industry. Its long-established usage as a filler and coating pigment in papermaking has solidified its position as the preferred choice in this sector. It’s role in improving the quality and printability of paper is contributing significantly to its adoption.
