What Are The Factors Driving The Limestone Market?
The limestone market is experiencing growth, primarily driven by the escalating demand from the construction sector. Post-pandemic, the construction industry has seen a significant boost as numerous construction projects that got halted due to lockdowns have resumed. Limestone, a key ingredient in cement production, has thus witnessed an increased demand. Cement plays a crucial role in the construction sector, being an essential component in diverse construction mixtures such as building block composites, meeting specific requirements in block architecture. For example, Oxford Economics, an economic data service agency based in the UK, predicted in March 2023 that the value of construction work is anticipated to increase from $9.7 trillion in 2022 to $13.9 trillion by 2037. This surge is primarily driven by significant construction markets in China, the U.S., and India. Hence, the growing demand from the construction sector is stimulating the expansion of the limestone market.
