Rise in Construction Industry to Boost Demand for Bentonite
“The global bentonite market is mainly influenced by the ongoing expansion in the construction industry,” says a research analyst at TMR. The increasing demand for smart infrastructure, coupled with rising expenditure in infrastructural development, has boosted the construction industry across the world, which in turn, is reflecting greatly on the sales of bentonite, as it is one of the important components used in the construction of a structure.
With continual urbanization, the demand for bentonite is anticipated to increase substantially in the near future, leading to a high growth of this market. However, the sluggish growth rate of the oil and gas industry and the declining demand for IOP grade bentonite in China may hamper the bentonite market progress over the next few years. Nonetheless, the surge in the cosmetics and personal care industry and the persistent demand for iron casting from the heavy equipment manufacturing and the automotive industries are projected to boost bentonite market significantly in the years to come, states the research report.
