Basalt Fibre Market – Growth Restraints

While basalt fibre is witnessing significant demand from several end-use sectors, factors such as high cost and scarcity of raw material is posing threat to the basalt fibre market growth.

Availability of numerous low-cost substitutes such as fiberglass is dampening the adoption of basalt fibre from small-scale industries.

Domestic manufacturers in emerging regions are stiffening the market competition by selling products at much cheaper rates, as such, leading players are experiencing difficulties in expanding their regional foothold. 

Impact of COVID-19 on Basalt Fibre Market

The COVID-19 pandemic is having dampening effect on the global mining industry. Government has imposed lockdowns in various non-essential service sectors, thus, resulting in reduced production of metals from mining industries.

On the other hand, demand for commodities such as copper, basalt and iron remains low from various end-use industries.

Unavailability of labor and high transportation costs have halted construction processes in worst-affected countries including, Italy, the US, China, India, among others.

Recent studies reveal the global construction industry currently stands at 0.9% growth in 2020. Going forward, demand from the automotive industry for basalt fibre has seen a severe downfall during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Basalt Fibre Market – Regional Analysis

North America and Europe currently hold prominent share in the global basalt fibre market. The US, Russia and Germany are leading consumers of basalt fibres in these regions respectively.

These regions are hub of automobile, construction and wind energy sectors. Further, favorable government trade policies are playing a helping hand in the market growth in North America and Europe.

Asia Pacific (APAC) is anticipated to provide remunerative opportunities to basalt fibre market towards the forecast period.

Increasing government investments towards infrastructural development is slated to drive the regional market growth.

Expanding automotive industries in China and Japan is fueling the demand for basalt fibre. Studies reveal that the annual production of automobiles in APAC is more than 50 million, 60% of which are used domestically.
