Global Market Size, and Trend Highlights Over 2010 - 2026

Bentonite Market is estimated to garner a revenue of USD 5.96 billion by the end of 2026, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% over the analysis period, i.e., 2022 – 2026. Further, in the year 2022, the industry size of bentonite was over USD 5.17 billion. Expanding organic farming around the world is expected to drive market growth over the analysis period. Bentonite is a natural soil preserver that is used in organic farming to protect and maintain soil quality. It is also an excellent adsorbent, absorbing nearly 75% – 80% of impurities when mixed with zeolite or limestone and coagulants in the water treatment and filtration process.

Moreover, the growth of this bentonite market is attributed to the rising environmental concerns about wastewater treatment, primarily due to the presence of radioactive and toxic chemicals. Bentonite provides a less expensive, safer, more effective, and cost-effective method of wastewater treatment prior to disposal into a water stream. Clay mineral is an effective organic matter, toxic metal, and nutrient removal agent. When compared to raw bentonite, modified bentonite showed higher adsorption. In comparison to chemical-based methods, it provides an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for waste-water treatment. According to the United Nations, 56%of household wastewater flows were safely treated in 2020 across the globe.

Growth Drivers

  • Increasing Construction and Infrastructural Activities – The excellent performance and properties of bentonite as well as the rising demand for bentonite slurries in the construction industry due to its high stabilization is driving the demand for bentonite. The rapidly growing construction industry is anticipated to boost global bentonite market growth. Besides, according to the World Bank, value added by industry (including construction) was 26.63 trillion in 2021 which experienced an increase of 19.6% over 2020.
  • Growing Demand for Bentonite from Pharmaceutical Industry Backed Market Growth –The pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow at a rapid rate due to the increasing use of bentonite as a filler in pharmaceuticals namely calamine lotions, industrial protective creams, and anti-irritants for eczema owing to its strong absorption/adsorption functions, and this is a key factor that is expected to contribute to the bentonite market revenue growth.  According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, exports of drugs & pharmaceuticals were valued at USD 2,052.78 million in September 2022 and secured a share of 6.29% in the total monthly exports. Besides, according to Invest India, the pharmaceutical industry in India is estimated to attain USD 65 Billion by 2024 and to USD 130 Billion by 2030. Moreover, the investment in research & development of the pharmaceutical industry in the UK was worth USD 6.4 billion in 2021.
  • Rising Use in Landscaping Application- The rising use of bentonite in landscaping applications because of its excellent water retention property.

Challenges

  • Health Risks Associated with Bentonite Affect Bentonite Market Growth- Bentonite contains a high level of lead, which can pose a health risk by causing serious damage to the central nervous system, immune system, and kidney. For instance, in March 2016, the United States Food and Drug Administration published a warning against the utilization of a product of Best Bentonite based in Guthrie, Oklahoma which is "Best Bentonite Clay”. The FDA confirmed that the product contains extremely high lead levels and may pose serious health risks. Therefore, this is predicted to restrain the market growth of bentonite.
  • Limited Availability of Bentonite
  • Stringent Regulations by the Regulatory Bodies

Bentonite Market Segmentation

Product Type (Calcium, Sodium, Others)

The sodium segment in the bentonite market is estimated to gain the largest revenue share over the projected time frame. By the end of 2026, the sodium segment garnered the largest revenue of USD 3.54 billion. The segment grew at a CAGR of 3.5% during the analysis period. The growth of the segment is due to its usefulness as a sealant for subsurface disposal systems and for quarantining metal pollutants of groundwater, due to its property of swelling. Sodium bentonite is also used to seal city landfills, sewage lagoons, and stock and recreation ponds. Sodium bentonite is most used for large castings that use dry molds and used as a binding agent in the manufacture of iron ore (taconite) pellets which are used in the steelmaking industry. According to the World Steel Association, average world steel use per capita has steadily increased from 150 kg in 2001 to around 230 kg in 2020. By 2050, the use of steel is predicted to surge by around 20% compared to present levels to meet the needs of our growing population. Besides, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, global steelmaking capacity and production increased to 562.9 million metric tons in 2022 from 521.6 million metric tons in 2021.

Application (Pet Litter, Foundry Molding Sands, Civil Engineering, Iron Ore Pelletizing, Drilling Fluids, Oil Absorbents)

Bentonite market from the foundry molding sands segment is estimated to register USD 2.10 Billion revenue during projected time frame and is anticipated to maintain its leading position while expanding at the fastest CAGR owing to the great benefits of bentonite while preparation of molding sand used in the production of nonferrous casting, iron, and steel. Green sand molds with good flowability, compatibility, and thermal stability are made using the unique features of bentonite for high-quality manufacturing castings. According to The European Foundry Association, the share of cast iron with lamellar graphite in the output total of iron and steel castings is 49.3%. The iron, steel, and malleable foundries produced approximately 10.7 million tons of castings in 2021 which experienced an increase of 17.6 % over 2020.
