Inorganic Pigments Market
Inorganic Pigments Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Pigment Type (Cadmium, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide, Carbon Black, Chromium Oxide and Other Pigment Types), Form , Raw Material, Application, End User and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Inorganic Pigments Market is accounted for $25.2 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $55.5 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 11.9% during the forecast period. Inorganic pigments are colorants that are composed of inorganic compounds. These pigments are typically mineral-based and are derived from naturally occurring elements or synthetically produced inorganic substances. Unlike organic pigments, which are carbon-based compounds, inorganic pigments do not contain carbon in their molecular structure. Inorganic pigments are widely used in various industries and they offer a broad range of colors, stability, and resistance to environmental factors such as light, heat, and chemicals.
According to the State Committee for the development and reform of the people's Republic of China, cement production in August this year increased by 6.6% in annual terms compared to July 2020, and in the same period last year, its growth rate was 3.6%. Inorganic color pigments are used as colorants in various construction materials.
