Dolomite Market Growth & Trends:
The global dolomite market size is expected to reach USD 3.05 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.8% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising investments in wastewater treatment plants along with expansion in steel production are expected to propel the consumption of dolomite across the forecast period.
Dolomite is a mineral consisting of carbonates of calcium & magnesium and other impurities. Based on product, the market is segmented into calcined, sintered, and agglomerated dolomite. The agglomerated segment accounted for a revenue share of over 29.0% in 2022 of the overall market. It is witnessing high demand from industries such as construction, agriculture, glass, magnesite, animal feed, and others, as it has high calcium carbonate content. It can also be processed into dololime which can be further processed into precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) products.
Based on end-use, the market is segmented into iron & steel, construction, glass & ceramics, agriculture, water treatment, and others. Water treatment is anticipated to register high growth over the forecast period. Dolomite is used in wastewater treatment plants to balance the acidity and alkalinity of the water. Its usage helps remove excess salts and heavy metals from the water, making it safe for discharge into the environment. By doing this, dolomite helps make the water treatment process more effective and efficient.
Based on region, North America is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% over the forecast period. The consumption of dolomite in the region is increasing due to the growing developments in the construction industry and massive steel production. The U.S. is the largest dolomite industry in the region. According to IEA, the U.S. contributes over 70% to the crude steel production of North America.
The dolomite industry is highly competitive owing to the presence of several producers. They face competition from other manufacturers engaged in producing substitutes like limestone and ilmenite. As a result, they adopt strategic initiatives like capacity expansion and mergers & acquisitions to stay ahead of the competition. For instance, in March 2023, ?i?ecam invested in the expansion of its sand separation facility and limestone and dolomite processing facility in Mersin, Turkey to ensure a consistent raw material supply for its flat glass production.
Dolomite Market Report Highlights:
- Calcined products held a market share of over 39.0% in 2024.This material is commonly used as a refractory material in the manufacturing of basic refractories.
- Iron & Steel segment held a market share of over 60.0% in 2024.The product is utilized as a refractory material in steelmaking processes such as converter lining, opening hearth furnaces, and electric furnace walls.
- North America dolomite market held over 36.0% revenue share of the global market. The North America dolomite market is expected to sustain its dominance owing to its extensive demand for dolomite in the construction industry.
- The Asia Pacific dolomite market is anticipated to register the fastest growth over the forecast period. The region is witnessing expansion in steel facilities.
