The global quartz stone market size was USD 11980 million in 2021 and is projected to touch USD 34324.41 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period.

Quartz stone is a crystallized, hard mineral made from silica. It is either made from a natural polished slab or engineered quartz composite which resembles granite in terms of appearance. It is one of the hardest natural materials existing on the earth. They are hard, non-porous, stain-resistant, and more durable than granite. Natural quartz is known to be very expensive and engineered quartz has 93-97% ground quartz that is combined with binders, resins, and pigments. There are many different varieties of quartz that have been classified as gemstones.    

Quartz stones have a range of applications such as in kitchen countertops, customized solutions for home and commercial interiors, and bathroom vanities and counters. It is used both commercially and residentially. The rising urbanization has led to growth in demand for residential applications, demand for solar photovoltaic cells, and demand from the semiconductor and electronics industry of quartz has given rise to the quartz stone market. It has varied applications in electronics, semiconductors, buildings, solar, optics, construction, telecommunication, and metallurgy industries.

COVID-19 Impact: Stopping of Operations to Impede Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with quartz stones experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the quartz stone market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The effects of COVID-19 pandemic are already being felt on a global level, the global quartz stone market is considerably influenced due to disruptions. In 2020, COVID-19 had a negative impact on many markets. Several countries went into lockdown. With the sudden pandemic, all kinds of businesses witnessed disruptions. With many restrictions in the pandemic, the market was also negatively impacted. The demand for quartz stone derives from various industries such as construction, electronics, automotive, semiconductor, and many more. Shortages in the semiconductor industry saw the automotive industry also halt its production of electric vehicles. The pandemic paused the supply chains and operations in all the industries which affected the demand in the market that led to labor shortages, supply chain problems, and production issues. These factors affected the demand and supply of quartz stones.
