The Asia Pacific low-grade silica sand market size reached 54.9 Million Metric Tons in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 71.4 Million Metric Tons by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.82% during 2025-2033.
Low-grade silica sand, also called ordinary silica sand, is primarily composed of quartz and other materials, such as feldspars, carbonates, clay minerals, iron oxides, etc. It contains less than 99% of SiO2 and more than 0.01% of iron oxide. Low-grade silica sand finds diverse applications in glassmaking, water filtration, industrial casting, sandblasting, hydraulic fracturing, etc. This can be accredited to its numerous benefits pertaining to high granularity, better resistance against heat and chemical reactions, improved strength, enhanced durability, etc.
Asia Pacific Low-Grade Silica Sand Market Trends:
Asia Pacific is amongst the largest consumers of low-grade silica sand based on its rising utilization in the glass and foundry industries. Furthermore, the increasing demand for low-grade silica sand in water filtration, along with the growing establishment of sewage treatment plants and installation of water purification systems, is also augmenting the market growth in the region. Additionally, a significant rise in infrastructural development and the escalating usage of low-grade silica sand in manufacturing various construction materials, such as ceramics, stained glass, paints and coatings, etc., are further propelling the regional market. Apart from this, the expanding renewable energy sector has led to the increasing utilization of low-grade silica sand in glass-based photovoltaic modules, which is also catalyzing the product demand. Moreover, extensive R&D activities for the utilization of low-grade silica sand in lightweight glazing glass, nanotechnology in flat glass, solar control glazing for building glass, etc., are positively influencing the market growth. Additionally, the expanding applications of low-grade silica sand in numerous shale gas exploration activities are expected to bolster the Asia Pacific silica sand market.
