The global quartzite market size was USD 3555.17 million in 2021 and the market is projected to touch USD 4670.39 million by 2032 at a CAGR of 2.51% during the forecast period.
Quartzite is a hard, non-foliated metamorphic rock that was originally pure quartz sandstone. Sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts. Pure quartzite is usually white to grey, though quartzites often occur in various shades of pink and red due to varying amounts of iron oxide (Fe2O3). Other colours, such as yellow, green, blue, and orange, are due to other minerals.
The market for quartzite is witnessing exponential growth due to the expanding demand for quartzite in numerous application industries for various purposes. Quartzite is unlike quartz. It is a natural sandstone that is transformed through heating. On the other hand, quartz is human made crystal. This sandstone is widely utilized in construction industries for flooring and roofing. It is also used to produce high-quality silica for industrial purposes and glass making.
COVID-19 Impact: Halted Construction Operations Impacted the Demand for Quartzite Material
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the quartzite market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
The quartzite market faced challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic due to halted construction projects and the closure of chemical and other key application industries. The lockdown limitations restricted several industrial operations and manufacturing processes which reduced the demand for the quartzite. This decreased demand directly impacted the market demand and its growth rate throughout this world health emergency. However, after the end of the pandemic, the market began to regain an extensive demand for the material due to increasing construction activities around the world.
Latest Trends
"Sustainable Sourcing and Production Inflate the Market Opportunities"
The market for quartzite is evolving rapidly due to higher demand for the material. Besides this, the ongoing trends and developments are also contributing to its growth. There is a growing emphasis on sustainability in the quartzite market and companies are increasingly focusing on responsibly sourcing raw materials and implementing eco-friendly production practices. This includes reducing water consumption, energy efficiency, and minimizing waste. As well as consumers' and designers’ inclination toward unique and exotic quartzite varieties with distinct colours, patterns, and veining also fuelling the material demand which is aiding the market growth.

"Rising Trend of Glass Interior Enhance the Demand for the Material"
The market is also driven by the interior and exterior design trends which play a significant role in the demand for quartzite due to widespread adoption of the material in glass making. As consumers and designers seek modern and aesthetically pleasing options, quartzite's unique colours and patterns make it a desirable choice for decorative products.
Restraining Factors
"High Production Costs Can Hinder the Market Expansion"
Although, the market is experiencing significant growth, however, some market constraints such as high production costs can cause challenges to the expansion of the market. Illustratively, the extraction and processing of quartzite can be costly, especially in regions where labour and energy expenses are high. These costs can affect the pricing of quartzite products and the market’s progress.
