Pune, India, April 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global refractories market size reached $32.25 billion in 2021. The market valuation is predicted to rise from $33.01 billion in 2022 to $44.82 billion by 2029, registering a CAGR of 4.5% during 2022-2029. The growth of this market is driven by increasing demand across major industrial sectors including iron, steel, and other metals, glass, cement, paper & pulp, and petrochemicals.
Refractory customization to meet the global demand will further drive the market growth, says Fortune Business Insights™, in its report titled “Refractories Market, 2022-2029."
Weakened Demand Across Key End-Use Sectors Affected Market Dynamics
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted refractories market growth significantly. Despite refractory production being an essential service, supply chain uncertainty and subsequent lack of raw materials such as binders and non-clay sands dented the growth prospects for this market. The slowdown of automotive, construction and other key sectors impacted the market trends. However, the recovery of these sectors post-pandemic will strengthen the market outlook over the forthcoming years.
