Global Marble Market to reach USD 66 billion by 2026

Global Marble Market is valued approximately at USD 52 billion in 2018 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 3.00 % over the forecast period 2019-2026. Marble is a natural mineral predominantly composed of carbonates such as dolomite and calcite. It is a type of stone, which is usually preferred for decorative purposes owing to its lustrous finish and attractive color options. As it a metamorphic rock, it is generally white in color. Though, rarely, marble can have coloration anywhere between red and yellow color owing to the existence of impurities such as bitumen, clay minerals and iron oxide. Rapid expansion in the construction activities, along with growing consumer preference towards interior decoration of housing structure are the few factor responsible for high CAGR of the market over the forecast period. For instance, according to International Construction Market Survey, the growth rate of construction industry, globally in 2017 was estimated nearly 3.5% and it grew to almost 3.9% in 2018. Similarly, as per the annual report of European Construction Industry Federation (FIEC) in 2017, it is clearly stated that construction activity in entire Europe grew by 2.2% in 2016 (reaching approximately 1,278 billion Euro) compared to 2015. Further, marble is also utilized in ground form as calcium complement to farm animals; soft abrasive material for grating application; production of acid-neutralizer and antacid. These applications are likely to impel the demand for marble over the forecast period. However, high initial cost is the major factor restricting the growth of global Marble market during the forecast period.
