COVID-19 Impact on the Perlite Market

The global Perlite market includes major Tier I and II suppliers like as Imerys Minerals (UK), Keltech Energies Ltd. (India), Dupré Minerals (England), Amol Dicalite (India). These suppliers have their manufacturing facilities spread across various countries across Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World. COVID-19 has impacted their businesses as well.

These players have announced the suspension of production due to the lowered demand, supply chain bottlenecks, and to protect the safety of their employees in the US, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the demand for perlite is expected to decline in 2020. Manufacturers are likely to adjust production to prevent bottlenecks and plan production according to demand from tier 1 manufacturers.

Perlite Market Dynamics

Driver: Robust growth in the building & construction industry in developing countries

It is expected that spending on capital projects and infrastructure will grow significantly over the next decade. China, India, and other countries in the Asia Pacific, along with South Africa and Brazil, are investing considerably in the building & construction industry. This investment is required for modernization and commercialization. Rapid urbanization in emerging markets such as India, Malaysia, Thailand, and Brazil are expected to boost the spending in vital infrastructure sectors such as power, construction, and transportation. Improving economic conditions in these emerging markets are projected to increase the use of perlite.

Emerging economies have also been focusing on rapid industrialization over the last few decades. Countries such as India, Indonesia, South Africa, Brazil, and Argentina are transforming their economies from being agricultural-based to manufacturing and other industries. With the emergence of new industries, the need for industrial construction is also increasing; this is creating scope for perlite to be preferred over other aggregates.

Perlite is used as an aggregate in lightweight insulating concrete and plaster in masonry blocks as loose fill insulating material, as a cavity wall in residential homes, and also in specialty applications such as chimney fills, fireproofing sprays, acoustical sprays, and interstitial floors. Expanded perlite aggregate (EPA) is used as a heat & sound insulator since it is a lightweight material that ensures economic benefits in building & construction.

Restraint: Restrictions on the use of refractories due to growing environmental concerns

The manufacturing process of refractories leads to the emission of organic particulate matter (PM) and harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), fluorides, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Processes, including crushing, grinding, calcining, and drying, lead to the emission of PM, while gases and VOCs are emitted during firing and tar & pitch operations, respectively.

In the US, regulations regarding refractory waste disposal and guidelines regarding the use of refractories encourage the recycling of chrome-based refractories, which are used mainly in the iron & steel industry. Similarly, in Europe, projects, such as ReStaR (Review and improvement of testing Standards for Refractory products), have been implemented to ensure the reliability and precision of the current refractory testing standards in the region. Such environmental regulations and restrictions on the use of refractory materials act as a restraining factor for the growth of the perlite market.

Opportunity: Investment in R&D activities

Growing concerns about the environment have increased demand for the environment-friendly and sustainable use of perlite. Perlite manufacturers are focusing on developing advanced perlite products that can be directly used in green buildings and be recycled and reused. Manufacturers are investing in R&D activities and technologies to develop sustainable perlite materials that are cost-effective and at the same time provide mechanical strength.

Players in this market are investing in research & development activities due to the increasing demand for perlite and to withstand intense competition. This increased investment in R&D activities to develop ecological perlite materials will provide growth opportunities for the perlite market in the next five years.

Challenges: Hazardous effects of perlite

Growing concerns about the environmental impact of perlite have made governments adopt firm policies pertaining to greenhouse gas emissions from manufacturing plants as they create hindrances in the manufacturing of high-quality perlite materials. Standard tests are performed to validate that the perlite ore adheres to the regulations mandated by the European Industrial Gases Association (EIGA), which is focused on specific concerns related to the use of specific perlite ores. The perlite industry is also required to meet performance standards by regulatory agencies such as the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The perlite market is governed by strict regulations for its use in construction, filtration, and agriculture. The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has laid down guidelines for perlite producers to ensure the safety of workers in mines. According to “Inflation Toxicology,” an independent research paper written by L. Daniel Maxim, perlite is regulated as a “nuisance dust” in most countries. Perlite is categorized as a type of nuisance or inert dust; exposure to such dust can sometimes result in temporary physical irritation discomfort, impaired visibility, and increase the chance of chronic disorders. Such health hazards pose a challenge for the growth of the perlite market.

Perlite Market Ecosystem Analysis

Construction segment is expected to lead the Perlite market during the forecast period.

The construction industry will continue to lead the Perlite market, accounting for a share of 43.5% of the overall market, in 2019 terms of value. Perlite is used as an aggregate in lightweight insulating concrete and plaster in masonry blocks as loose fill insulating material, as a cavity wall in residential homes, and also in specialty applications such as chimney fills, fireproofing sprays, acoustical sprays, and interstitial floors. Expanded perlite aggregate (EPA) is used as a heat & sound insulator since it is a lightweight material that ensures economic benefits in building & construction.

Asia Pacific is the largest market for Perlite.

Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share of the Perlite market in 2020. Factors such as the rapidly increasing consumption of perlite in the construction and agriculture industries in countries such as China, Japan, and India have led to an increased demand for Perlite in the Asia Pacific region.
