Silica Sand Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Application (Foundry, Glass Making, Hydraulic Fracturing, Others), And By Geography – Forecast From 2023 To 2028

The silica sand market was valued at US$11.455 billion in 2021 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 7.80% over the forecast period to reach US$19.377 billion by 2028. 

Silica is one of the most common sand varieties found on Earth. It is used for various purposes like filtering water, manufacturing glass, blasting sand, building roads, casting in industries, and painting and coating. Silica is popular due to its properties, like high silica content, resistance to heat, and resistance to chemical reactions. The growth of the silica sand market can be substantiated by the growing urbanization and growing per capita income which is increasing construction spending and manufacturing, leading to the use of silica sand. It could also be tracked to the rise in hydraulic fracturing activities because of the rising shale gas and shale oil exploration so that the dependence on crude oil can be reduced. Furthermore, government support is also boosting the demand for silica sand. However, illegal sand mining and the development of sand-free construction products are a concern for the market.
