The market growth can be attributed to various factors, including lime's diverse applications across multiple industries. Lime is extensively used as a key ingredient in various industries. For instance, in the food processing sector, it is used in certain pickles and juice processing. Its unique flavour makes it a demanded ingredient in beverages and confectionery products. Additionally, the lime rind, which contains the chemical compound limonene, is widely used in the oil and cosmetics industries.
Key applications of lime include metallurgical applications, environmental, chemical and industrial, and construction applications. In the metallurgical sector, lime is heavily demanded for steel manufacturing, where it helps in the separation of impurities as slag, thereby enhancing metal performance. In environmental applications, hydrated lime is employed in flue gas treatment processes across various industries.
Growth of the steel sector is positively influencing the market growth
The growing steel sector is also driving the market growth. One of the crucial lime market trends is the application of hydrated lime in providing steel products protection from corrosion as well as impurities. It is like a coating on the products, which helps to neutralise the acid of the slag. Thus, the growth in the steel sector is directly affecting the market growth of the product. Its increasing use in the metallurgical application while producing steel is driving the market growth of the lime further. The product is also used in the manufacturing of aluminium and magnesium. It has wide applications in the refining of metal ores and non-ferrous metals like gold, silver, and aluminium, among others.
The market for steel is being driven by the growing construction sector across the globe. The construction sector is rapidly growing, especially in developing economies, like India and China. The growth is aided by the growing population and the rising economies of the countries. These regions are witnessing growing construction activities to cater to the housing demand of the population. Recent policies in the United States regarding anti-dumping tariffs and the new regulations in China are affecting the steel sector, which would also support the market growth of lime.
Lhoist Group, one of the key players, is also a leading company of lime as well as minerals. The company holds over a 10% share in lime production, globally. It produces and distributes the product across various regions. It is the leading company due to the excellent quality of its product, which is liked by consumers worldwide. It serves industries like steel, environmental, building and civil engineering, pulp and paper, and agriculture industries.
