Washed Silica Sand Market is Driven by Increasing Construction Activities Globally
Silica sand, also known as industrial sand, is a high-purity quartz material used for applications requiring durability and chemical stability. It possesses properties such as high crush resistance and uniform sphericity which makes it a preferred raw material in the production of glass, metal castings, hydraulic fracturing and many construction applications. Washed Silica Sand Market Growth is sundergoes stringent washing process to remove impurities offering even higher purity levels. It finds wide usage in glassmaking, hydraulic fracturing, water filtration and several industrial applications owing to its excellent chemical resistance. Growing construction industry worldwide has propelled the demand for ready-mix concrete, cement and asphalt, in turn augmenting the consumption of washed silica sand. Additionally, rapid urbanization along with infrastructural development projects in developing nations have boosted the market growth over the past few years.
The global washed silica sand market is estimated to be valued at US$ 18.56 billion in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.6% over the forecast period from 2024 to 2031.
Key Takeaways
Key players operating in the Washed Silica Sand are Unimin Corporation, Fairmount Minerals, US Silica Holdings, Inc., Emerge Energy Services LP, Badger Mining Corp, Hi-Crush Partners, Preferred Sands, Premier Silica, Pattison Sand, Sibelc
