North America Specialty Silica Market: Introduction
In terms of
value, the specialty
silica market in North America is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of ~5% from 2020 to 2030 and
cross value of ~US$ 3 Bn by 2030.
The U.S. is likely to be a key country of the specialty silica market in North
America between 2020 and 2030,
in terms of demand. The rubber industry is projected to offer lucrative
opportunities for the specialty silica market in North America in the
near future.
North America Specialty Silica
Market: Major Drivers and Restraints
Specialty
silica is being aggressively adopted by tire manufacturers as a reinforcement
filler. It offers high reinforcing ability and improves fuel efficiency. Rise
in the demand for green tires is anticipated to boost the specialty silica
market during the forecast period, as the tire industry accounts for a majority
of the consumption of specialty silica. The increase in adoption of electric
vehicles across the world in order to curb air pollution has propelled the
demand for tires. This is driving the specialty silica market. Several players
have adopted strategic initiatives to increase their production capacity for
specialty silica, owing to high demand for specialty silica for use in various
industrial applications. This factor is also expected to boost the specialty
silica market in North America during the forecast period. For instance, in November
2016, Wacker Chemie AG announced establishment of a new
pyrogenic silica plant in Tennessee, the U.S., with the capital expenditure of US$
150 Mn. The new facility has the annual production capacity of 13,000 metric
tons of pyrogenic silica. The added capacity is estimated to help Wacker Chemie
AG meet the rising demand for specialty silica.

Specialty
silica is employed in paper and pulp mills for retention and drainage aid
systems. However, the demand for specialty silica is anticipated to decline in
the near future, due to sluggish growth of the paper & pulp industry. The
annual production of paper in North America stood at 107,406 metric
tons in 2000. However, it declined to 82,984 metric
tons in 2015,
a drop of 22% from 2000 to 2015. This
factor is expected to restrain the specialty silica market in North America
during the forecast period.
North America Specialty Silica
Market: Prominent Segments
In terms of
value, the precipitated silica segment held a major share of the specialty
silica market in North America in 2019. This trend is
anticipated to continue during the forecast period, due to considerable usage
of precipitated silica in rubber and tire industries in the region. Among
applications, the leather finishing segment constituted a significant i.e. more
than 38% share
of the specialty silica market in North America in 2019.
This trend is estimated to continue throughout the forecast period. On the
other hand, crop protection & animal feed is projected to be the most
rapidly expanding segment of the market in the region during the forecast
period.

Competition Landscape
Major
manufacturers of specialty silica in North America include Tokuyama Corporation, Nouryon,
PPG Industries, Inc., Evonik Industries AG, Wacker Chemie AG, W. R. Grace &
Co, and Solvay S.A. Imposition of stringent environmental
regulation on the usage of specialty silica acts as a significant barrier for
new players entering the specialty silica market in North America.
