Precipitated Silica Market To Reach USD 7.7 Bn By 2035, Driven By Growing Demand From Tire And Oral Care TMR

(MENAFN- EIN Presswire)

Precipitated Silica

Rising demand for eco-friendly tires and expanding use in oral & personal care drive the future of the precipitated silica market.

WILMINGTON, DE, UNITED STATES, August 21, 2025 /EINPresswire / -- The global precipitated silica market is gaining strong momentum as industries increasingly shift toward eco-friendly, high-performance materials. Precipitated silica, widely used in tires, non-tire rubber applications, oral care products, and personal care formulations, is emerging as a critical material in sustainable manufacturing.

The market was valued at US$ 4.1 Bn in 2024 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.9% between 2025 and 2035, reaching US$ 7.7 Bn by 2035. This trajectory is supported by rapid industrialization, rising automotive sales in emerging economies, and innovations in silica manufacturing technologies.

Market Overview

Precipitated silica is produced by reacting sodium silicate with acids under controlled conditions, resulting in high-surface-area, reactive silica particles. Its versatility spans across rubber reinforcement, oral hygiene, cosmetics, agrochemicals, plastics, and food products.

In the tire industry, precipitated silica enhances tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and wet traction, while reducing rolling resistance-key to fuel-efficient and green tires. In oral care, it functions as a polishing and thickening agent in toothpaste, providing gentle yet effective cleaning performance.

Key Drivers of Market Growth

Rising Demand from Tire & Rubber Industry

As global automakers focus on green tires to meet strict emission and fuel efficiency regulations, precipitated silica is replacing conventional carbon black fillers. It provides performance advantages while aligning with sustainability goals.

Growing Adoption in Oral Care

Precipitated silica is widely used by leading brands such as Colgate-Palmolive, Unilever, and Procter & Gamble in whitening and enamel care toothpaste. Its ability to clean without damaging enamel makes it the preferred abrasive and thickener.

Expansion in Personal Care & Industrial Applications

Beyond tires and toothpaste, precipitated silica serves as a thickener, absorbent, and anti-caking agent in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and food products.
