Europe Potassium Silicate Price

Q2 2024:

During the second quarter of 2024, prices in Europe increased sharply owing to a complex blend of improving business sentiment and supply chain disruptions. Extreme weather, specifically heavy floods in Germany, impacted key shipping routes, creating logistical bottlenecks and increasing transportation costs. At the same time, geopolitical instability and shipping delays exacerbated supply challenges. Poland faced major price hikes because of limited supplies and costly manufacturing. As the quarter progressed, seasonal factors and diminishing stock levels contributed to a sustained upward trend in prices, with the market showing resilience despite ongoing hindrances.

Q1 2024:

In the first quarter of 2024, the European market displayed mixed trends. Prices decreased at the beginning of the quarter, but later a slow rebound took place. Germany, an important player in the area, experienced significant price changes due to factors like economic uncertainties and decreasing use in the construction industry, leading to reduced demand. Rising rate of interest and supply chain disturbances, owing to geopolitical concerns and transportation challenges, also played a role. Mid-quarter, low inventories pushed prices higher, with no significant plant shutdowns reported. However, the market dynamics were influenced by the fluctuating demand outlook, especially in the construction sector.

Q4 2023:

The European region experienced a mixed trajectory in price trends during fourth quarter of 2023. Initially, the price remained low due to a drop in activities in the construction sector. However, towards the end of December, there was a surge in prices owing to product shortages created by manufacturers.

North America Potassium Silicate Price

Q2 2024:

During the second quarter of 2024, the North American market faced considerable instability, marked by an overall decrease, with a recovery in late June. The quarter saw significant challenges, including issues in distribution channels driven by transit disruptions and looming labor strikes within major rail networks. While the Panama Canal Authority tried to reduce some logistical pressures, overall market disruptions continued. The drop in demand initially occurred because of reduced manufacturing and construction expenditures, impacted by the rising rate of interest. However, a late-quarter resurgence in infrastructure and private construction projects helped boost demand, resulting in a market rebound.

Q1 2024:

During the first quarter of 2024, the North American market showed a varied pattern. Although the general pattern stayed consistent, there were more noticeable fluctuations in the USA. After an initial price rise in January, the market stabilized mid-quarter. Import costs had a small impact on the rise in local prices, as construction growth and a positive business outlook propelled demand. The strong business environment, marked by increased new orders and economic activity, bolstered confidence. Freight charges also played a role in pricing shifts, though ample supply in the local market kept the increases minimal. Traders adjusted prices accordingly, maintaining a balance between supply and demand.

Q4 2023:

In North America, the potassium silicate market witnessed a decline in price trends in Q4FY2023 because of low demand from the construction industry. Moreover, the availability of potassium silicate inventory stocks led to a dip in prices. Therefore, the reduced number of orders and low purchasing activity was responsible for the decrease in prices.

Asia Pacific Potassium Silicate Price

Q2 2024:

The Asia Pacific region experienced consistent price drops throughout the second quarter of 2024, heavily influenced by low usage by major industries like construction and ceramics, coupled with high stock levels. A surplus of supply, along with economic uncertainties, caused a drop in prices, further exacerbated by logistical challenges at crucial ports. Even though there was a uniform availability of supply, order from local and international markets stayed low. Seasonal influences, such as reduced usage over monsoon, further exacerbated the market's results, and the wider regional market continued to face difficulties with too much supply and weak demand.

Q1 2024:

At the beginning of 2024, the Asia Pacific region experienced consistent pricing, aside from a mid-quarter drop in cost, followed by stable expenses. Demand and supply remained balanced, contributing to this stability. South Korea experienced the most notable price changes, with a downturn driven by reduced demand in sectors like chemical and construction derivatives. High inventory levels also contributed to this trend. The holidays further dampened procurement activities, reducing demand. In general, the market was sufficiently stocked, with prices indicating a weaker market in comparison to the prior year because of low usage and sufficient product availability.

Q4 2023:

The potassium silicate pricing in the Asia Pacific region witnessed a subdued market trajectory in the last quarter of 2023. This is due to low product demand from the construction industry and the availability of surplus inventory. In addition, the import of cost-effective items from around the world resulted in a downward price movement.

Potassium Silicate Price Trend

Potassium Silicate Market Analysis

The global potassium silicate industry size reached 459.1 Thousand Tons in 2023​. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 550.2 Thousand Tons, at a projected CAGR of 2.00% during 2023-2032.

  • The market expansion is being supported by the growing agriculture sector, which makes use of potassium silicate as a silicate-based fertilizer. This compound is known to enhance plant resistance to pests and diseases which are necessary to increase nutrient absorption and improve drought resistance. By 2050, there will be 10 billion people on the planet, as per the recent World Bank findings. As a result, there will be more pressure on agricultural land to produce, which, in turn, will push farmers to use silicate-based fertilizers.
  • The expansion of the construction sector, especially in emerging economies of the world, creates a substantial potassium silicate demand. This compound is used in concrete hardening, water-resistant coatings, and fireproofing materials. Asia Pacific’s real estate and construction industry is growing rapidly and will acquire 40% of the total construction output by 2030, as estimated by Euromonitor. It is also growing at a yearly pace of 6%, which is higher than in Western Europe and North America. With this data, increased potassium silicate use is evident to meet the standards for durability and safety.
  • The increasing problem of fungal diseases affecting crops makes potassium silicate a popular choice thanks to its fungicidal properties. The compound has the ability to form a protective barrier on plant surfaces against fungal infections. Around 19,000 fungi are known to cause diseases in crop plants worldwide. Growers lose between 10 and 23 percent of their crops to fungal infection each year. An additional 10-20 percent is lost post-harvest. In a commentary in Nature published in May 2023, academics predict that those figures are projected to worsen as global warming rises. This has increased the importance of potassium silicate in the agricultural sector to protect plants.
  • Amidst the increasing environmental concern, the paint and coatings industry is adopting potassium silicate as it requires materials that provide durability and environmental resistance. Potassium silicate-based paints and coatings are known to provide non-toxicity and durable nature. This sector is growing at a speeding pace with a 3.1% growth rate. Potassium silicate’s use in the Asia-Pacific paint and coatings market, which was valued at USD 63 billion in 2022, is also expanding the market reach. In this region, China was known as the largest market with a sale of USD 45 billion. This has increased the demand for potassium silicate in the Asia-Pacific region.
