North America Calcium Carbonate Price Analysis – Last Quarter

Calcium Carbonate Prices in the United States:

Product	Category	Price
Calcium Carbonate	Chemical	370 USD/MT

The Calcium Carbonate Price Index in the USA saw a significant decline in the last quarter, with prices falling to around 370 USD/MT. This drop was mainly due to weakened demand from the urban construction sector, reduced FMCG activity, and seasonal slowdowns in the food and beverage industries. Additionally, port disruptions from hurricanes, labor strikes, and temporary shutdowns, especially at Tampa Bay, further delayed supply chains, leading to a bearish price forecast for early 2025.

APAC Calcium Carbonate Price Analysis – Last Quarter

Calcium Carbonate Prices in China:

Product	Category	Price
Calcium Carbonate	Chemical	340 USD/MT

The Calcium Carbonate Price Chart in India showed fluctuating market conditions in the last quarter, with prices settling near 340 USD/MT. This period saw a slowdown in construction activity and weak demand from the paints and plastics sectors, leading to reduced market momentum. High borrowing costs and uncertainties related to elections further dampened industrial output and investor sentiment. However, the market experienced a modest rebound, supported by increased public infrastructure spending and restocking by the paper industry, which helped stabilize Calcium Carbonate Prices in India during this time.

Europe Calcium Carbonate Price Analysis – Last Quarter

Calcium Carbonate Prices in Germany:

Product	Category	Price
Natural Gas	Feedstock	260 USD/MT

The Calcium Carbonate Price Index in Germany experienced considerable volatility in the last quarter of 2024, ultimately dropping to around 260 USD/MT by December. This decline was primarily driven by a marked slowdown in housing construction, fewer new orders, and heightened recession fears, all contributing to reduced demand in the construction sector. Although the infrastructure and packaging industries provided brief price support, rising input costs and port delays led only to short-lived spikes. With colder weather and a broader decline in industrial activity, market sentiment turned increasingly cautious, resulting in a subdued Calcium Carbonate Price Forecast for the near term.

Key Factors Influencing Calcium Carbonate Price Trend, Index, and Forecast (2025)

Industrial Demand and End-Use Sectors

Calcium carbonate prices are highly sensitive to demand from construction, paper, plastics, paints, and food industries. A slowdown in construction or industrial output—such as seen in Europe and Asia—can weaken demand and exert downward pressure on prices. Conversely, infrastructure growth and strong manufacturing activity support price stability and future growth.

Supply, Inventory, and Production Dynamics

Oversupply, high inventories, and increased imports have contributed to price declines in several regions. For example, in Q1 2025, Europe and Asia experienced downward trends due to excess product availability and subdued consumption. Maintenance shutdowns or supply chain disruptions can temporarily tighten supply and lift prices.

Raw Material and Energy Costs

Fluctuations in energy and feedstock prices directly impact production costs. Rising energy costs, as seen during periods of geopolitical tension, can prompt producers to increase prices. Conversely, stable or declining input costs allow for price reductions.

Trade Policies and Global Logistics

Tariff changes, port congestion, and global trade disruptions influence regional price differences and market volatility. For instance, political unrest or trade restrictions can delay shipments, create supply bottlenecks, and cause short-term price spikes.

Seasonal and Economic Factors

Seasonal slowdowns, such as winter lulls in construction, or economic uncertainty, can reduce demand and lead to softer prices. Inflationary pressures and interest rate hikes may also dampen purchasing capacity, affecting the overall price trend.

Regional Market Variations

Prices vary by region due to local supply-demand dynamics, currency fluctuations, and infrastructure efficiency. In March 2025, prices ranged from USD 0.21/kg in Europe and Africa to USD 0.48/kg in the Middle East, reflecting these regional differences.

 

Calcium Carbonate Price Outlook for 2025

• Short-term: Prices are expected to remain under pressure in regions with high inventories and weak industrial demand, though any supply disruptions or cost increases could prompt rebounds.
• Medium-term: As global economies recover and infrastructure investment rises, demand is projected to grow, supporting a gradual price increase.
• Long-term: The market is forecast to expand steadily, driven by ongoing growth in construction, packaging, and industrial sectors, with prices influenced by energy costs, supply chain dynamics, and regulatory changes.

Summary:

Calcium carbonate price trends in 2025 are shaped by industrial demand, supply and inventory levels, raw material and energy costs, trade policies, and regional market dynamics. The outlook is for stable to gradually rising prices as demand recovers and supply-demand balances adjust globally.
