About the Report

The demand of limestone depends mainly on the performance of vast range of industries including construction, metallurgy, and chemical and industrial, among others. However, construction and metallurgy industries are the major driving factor for the growth of limestone market. In construction industry, limestone is widely used in architectural applications for walls, decorative trim and veneer as it provides both aesthetic and strength in the project.

It is also used to enhance the refractory life of the furnace. Therefore, with increase in demand of steel, demand of limestone would also increase as large number of steel is produced using electric arc method. The global production of crude steel increased to 1,878 million tons in 2020 from 1,435 million tons in 2010, showcasing the compound annual growth of 2.7%.
