Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the continuous basalt fiber industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Continuous Basalt Fiber Market Driver
The rise in building construction activities will be a major influencer of the continuous basalt fiber market growth. Construction activities pertaining to buildings are growing at a considerable rate globally owing to the increasing focus on infrastructure, which is enabling economic growth and improving the standard of living of the people. Developed economies such as the US, Canada, and countries in the European Union (EU) are focusing on improving their existing infrastructure. Developing countries such as China and India are also witnessing significant growth opportunities in the building construction industry, along with growth in the construction industry in the US. For instance, according to the US Census Bureau, residential housing completions in the US grew by 8.2% during July 2016-July 2017. The recovery of the US economy has created optimism among homebuyers, leading to increasing demand for new single- and multi-family homes. Since continuous basalt fiber offers better compatibility and alkali resistance with different resins as well as concrete, it is extensively being used during the construction of buildings. Thus, the rise in the construction of buildings is expected to accelerate the demand for continuous basalt fiber, in turn driving the market growth during the forecast period.
Key Continuous Basalt Fiber Market Trend
Increasing demand for sustainable building materials will be a major driver for the continuous basalt fiber market growth. The construction industry is witnessing a high requirement for environment-friendly and green building. Green or sustainable building practices endorse the construction of buildings that are healthier for occupants as well as for the environment. These buildings improve indoor environmental quality and reduce the adverse impacts of building construction, maintenance, operation, and disposal on both nature and humans. The increasing adoption of environment-friendly and sustainable building materials has encouraged the use of continuous basalt fiber in construction activities as it can be easily recycled and reduces the impact of the built environment on human health. The rising awareness among people about green or sustainable buildings has encouraged them to opt for sustainable products produced from natural resources. Moreover, the implementation of basalt fiber in construction can help in reducing the amount of scrap. The products of basalt fiber are usually durable, cost-effective, and biodegradable. Globally, the use of basalt fiber is one-third of the use of glass and steel fiber in the construction industry. However, the growing demand for sustainable building materials can lead to an increase in demand for continuous basalt fiber during the forecast period.
Key Continuous Basalt Fiber Market Challenge
Lack of awareness among end-users will be a hindrance to the continuous basalt fiber market growth. There is a large population across the globe that is unaware of the applications and properties of continuous basalt fiber. Lack of awareness about the use of basalt fiber, its superior properties, and environment-friendly nature in the developing countries of APAC and MEA is a major limitation to the growth of this market. Carbon and glass fibers are widely popular all over the world, with several end-users. Basalt fiber, on the other hand, is least explored by the industrialists because it is extracted from igneous rocks by vigorous cooling of basaltic lava. The continuous basalt fiber market is at its nascent stage of growth; thus, these fibers have not been adopted widely among end-users. Low awareness about basalt fiber is also due to the increased use of glass and carbon fiber in the construction, energy, automobile, aerospace, and military industries. In addition, increasing demand for glass and carbon fiber will compel the manufacturers of continuous basalt fiber to shift to the adoption of other fibers. Thus, the dearth of awareness among the end-users impedes the growth of the continuous basalt fiber market.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The COVID-19 has severely impacted North America, especially the US. Owing to the rising number of deaths from the pandemic, many North American countries, including the US, Canada, and Mexico, have implemented a nationwide lockdown. As a result, manufacturing units have been closed. This will affect the growth of the continuous basalt fiber market in North America during the forecast period. Moreover, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, manufacturing units in the region were in an idle state, which, in turn, impacted the consumption of continuous basalt fiber in the region in 2020. In 2021, the US initiated the COVID-19 vaccination drive and has vaccinated almost 48% of its adult population, resulting in the lifting of restrictions on several industrial and commercial activities. This is expected to boost the industrial activity in the region and consequently boost the demand for continuous basalt fibers during the forecast period.
