The kaolin market is estimated to be USD 4.52 Billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 5.52 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2017 to 2022. The increasing demand for kaolin from various end-use industries, such as paper, ceramics & sanitary wares, fiberglass, paints & coatings, rubber, and plastics, is expected to drive the growth of the kaolin market during the forecast period. Kaolin distinguishes itself from other industrial clays, owing to its fine particle size, increased brightness, and pure coloring. It is used in the development of ceramics as well as a surface coating pigment on high-quality glossy paper.

Based on process, the airfloat segment of the kaolin market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Airfloat kaolin is used in the fiber glass, rubber, paper and ceramic industries. Emerging countries such as China, India and Ukraine are considered as key markets for paper industry, ceramic and sanitary wares. The rising demand from the end use industries is expected to drive the growth of kaolin market.

Based on end-use industry, the paper segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the kaolin market in 2017, in terms of value. Ceramics & sanitary wares is the second-largest end-use industry segment of the kaolin market. Kaolin improves various properties of paper, such as ink absorption and ink pigment holdout, low linting tendency, and roughness, which, in turn, enhance the printability of paper. Thus, the increasing use of kaolin in paper production is projected to drive the growth of the paper end-use industry segment.

Asia Pacific is considered to be the fastest growing market for kaolin. China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, and Rest of Asia Pacific are considered for market analysis in the Asia Pacific region. The rise in demand for paper coating materials in emerging markets and increase in the use of paper packaging products are key factors contributing to the growth of the paper industry. The growth of the paper industry is projected to drive the demand for kaolin in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, the increased consumption of ceramics in the construction industry and high demand for plastics are also contributing to the growth of the kaolin market in this region. However, the availability of low-cost substitutes is acting as a restraint to the growth of the kaolin market.

Imerys (France), BASF (Germany), SCR-Sibelco (Belgium), Thiele Kaolin Company (US), KaMin LLC (US), Ashapura Group (India), LASSELSBERGER Group (Hungary), Quarzwerke GmbH (Germany), EICL Ltd. (India), and Sedlecký kaolin a.s. (Czech Republic) are leading companies operating in the kaolin market.
