Calcite is a mineral that is found in rocks. It is widely distributed and can be found in metamorphic, sedimentary, and igneous rocks all over the world. Calcite is the most abundant mineral in limestone and marble. These rocks are pretty common and can be found in large quantities in the Earth's crust. Globally, the calcite market is divided into two segments: ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC).

The increasing demand for calcite as a substitute for talc and kaolin will have an impact on global calcite market growth from 2022 to 2028. Calcite's favorable chemical properties, cost-effectiveness, rising demand from the plastics & paper industries, and advancements in polymer & plastics manufacturing are some of the factors expected to drive the growth of the calcite market. On the other hand, the rise in significant potential applications will enhance various opportunities, promoting the development of the industry during the forecast period. High transportation costs, slow neutralization action, and increasing water hardness will impede the growth from 2022 to 2028. The shrinking paper industry is highly urbanized countries due to rising digitization will pose a threat to the global calcite market's growth.
The global calcite market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. By type, the market is divided into precipitated calcium carbonate and ground calcium carbonate. The segment of ground calcium carbonate is expected to have the largest market share. By application, the market is divided into adhesives & sealants, plastics, construction, paints & coatings, paper, and others. Paper is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecasted period.
The Asia Pacific is the largest calcite consumer, and it is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The massive market size is contributed to calcite manufacturing expansion and growing preference from the plastics and paper industries in Japan, China, and India, among other places. Furthermore, low labor costs, easy access to raw materials, and other factors contribute to the region's market growth.
