"U.S. Kaolin Market Size To Reach USD 1.98
Billion By 2025"
The U.S. Kaolin Market size valued at USD 1.29
billion in 2016, is anticipated to be driven by
the growing consumption of cement, fiberglass,
plastics, paints, and adhesives in numerous
end-use sectors including construction and
automobile. Rising infrastructure spending
coupled with the increasing automobile production
is expected to propel growth.
Kaolin is used in a variety of products that are
utilized in the construction industry including
cement, paints, adhesives, plastics, rubber,
ceramics, and fiberglass. The penetration for
kaolin in these applications has been increasing
as they are not only effective in bringing down
the overall cost of the final product, but they
also increase the durability of the base material.
Fiberglass is used mesh fabrics, self-adhesive
tapes, and wall covering owing to its ability to
add strength and resistance to impact and fire.
Fiberglass in the form of GFRP composites is used
in a wide range of end-use sectors including wind
energy, transportation, aerospace, marine, and
civil construction. The growth of these end-use
sectors on account of improving economic
conditions in the country is anticipated to drive
the demand for fiberglass, and in turn, the
kaolin market. Fiberglass market is estimated to
generate revenues worth USD 549.1 million by 2025.

Technological advancements in the process of
manufacturing plastics have resulted in the
incorporation of numerous additives including
fillers such as kaolin. Increasing production of
plastics is expected to augment the demand for
kaolin over the forecast period. The segment is
projected to grow at a volume CAGR of 5.3 over
the projected period.
The U.S. plastic production increased from
108,183 million pounds in 2014 to 110,781 million
pounds in 2015. Infrastructure development and
growth of the manufacturing sector is expected to
augment the demand for plastics, thereby
bolstering the expansion of the kaolin industry.
The market is characterized by frequent changes
in prices primarily due to volatile product
demand as well as a rise in production costs.
Demand plays a significant role in determining
the price cap of the product, as bulk production
assists in lowering costs. However, volatile
movement of the paper, and oil gas markets have
been resulting in adversely impacting the profit
margins of manufacturers.
Imerys, KaMin, Thiele Kaolin and BASF are some of
the prominent players within the U.S. industry.
Other leading vendors include Advanced Primary
Minerals Corp., Active Minerals International,
Vanderbilt Minerals, LLC, and Lhoist Group.
