High Purity Quartz Market Analysis
The Global High Purity Quartz Market is projected to register a CAGR over 5% during the forecast period (2022-2027).
The market was negatively impacted by COVID-19 in 2020. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak in the first half of 2020, the semiconductor industry was significantly affected. This, in turn, has unfavorably impacted the consumption of high purity quartz. However, semiconductor companies across the globe are focusing on the implications of some near-term actions in response to COVID-19 such as ensuring that vendors and supply chain partners have business continuity plans in place and maintaining cyber vigilance. The market is projected to grow steadily as semiconductor production observed growth in 2021.
- Over the short term, growing demand for high purity quartz in the manufacturing of semiconductor ICs, coupled with increasing adoption of HPQ in solar industry across the globe are some of the driving factors which are stimulating the market demand.
- However, fluctuating prices of raw materials for high purity quartz is major factor hindering growth of the target market.
- Nevertheless, growing preferences for high purity quartz in the manufacturing of Si metal and growth of the solar energy sector are likely to create lucrative growth opportunities for the global market over the forecast period.
- Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market and is also likely to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to massive investment in the solar plants in China, India, and Japan.
High Purity Quartz Market Trends

- Additionally, substantial demand for semiconductor ICs, owing to increasing penetration of the internet of things (IoT) especially in the emerging economies, is a key factor driving the demand for high purity quartz.
- For instance, according to the data published by International Data Corporation (IDC), by 2025, data collected from IoT devices is expected to be 73 ZB (zettabytes). Most of data may obtain from security and video surveillance, industrial IoT applications and 75% of 56 B connected devices worldwide are anticipated to be connected to an IoT platform.
- Moreover, growing semiconductor industry is expected to create huge demand for HPQ and thereby boost growth of the target market over the forecast period.
- For instance, as per the stats released by Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), the global semiconductor industry sales were USD 52.5 billion in February 2022, an increase of 26.2% over February 2021 total of USD 39.6 billion.
- Therefore, considering the aforementioned factors, the demand for high purity quartz is expected to rise in the semiconductor application segment significantly in near future.
Asia-Pacific Region to Dominate the Market
- The Asia-Pacific region dominated the worldwide market in 2021, with the significant market share in terms of revenue, and is projected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period of 2022-2027.
- Growing installations of solar PV, along with high adoption of high purity quartz from various end use industries across the Asian countries including India, China, and Japan is primary factor driving growth of the target industry in Asia Pacific.
- Increasing penetration of the internet of things, growing demand for high bandwidth network, and rising optical fibers and telecommunication industry are among major factors expected to fuel growth of the Asia Pacifica high purity quartz industry in next few years.
- Additionally, the region is anticipated to dominate the target market over the forecast period as the China is the hub for semiconductors and electronics and industry. China’s semiconductor industry is continuous to gain momentum and growing at noteworthy CAGR.
- As per the stats released by Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), Chinese semiconductor industry could generate USD 116 billion in annual revenue by 2024, capturing upwards of 17.4% of global market share.
- Moreover, in India rapid industrialization, growing installations of solar plants, increasing government support for the use of solar, and rising adoption of advanced electronics are factors propelling demand for high purity quartz and thereby boosting growth of the market.
- According to Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), in 2021, India achieved 5th global position in solar power deployment by surpassing Italy. Solar power capacity has increased by more than 11 times in the last five years.
- In January 2022, Reliance Industries agreement with Gujarat to invest INR 5.95 lakh crore, mainly in green energy, wherein RIL will invest INR 60,000 crore in setting up manufacturing facilities for solar PV modules, electrolyzers, batteries, and fuel cells.
- Additionally, India set a goal of 450 GW of renewable energy by 2030 in January 2020. The declaration came from the central government, which is already planning on projects of installation of around 100 GW of solar energy by 2022.
- All aforementioned factors are likely to fuel growth of the Asia-Pacific high purity quartz market over the forecast time frame.
