Fumed Silica as a three-dimensional structure resulting in an increase in viscosity thixotropic behavior when used as a reinforcing filler or thickener. According to BlueQuark Research & Consulting, the global Fumed Silica market is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecasted period. Factors such as the increasing demand for Fumed Silica are driven by the surging Construction Industry and the demand for Fumed Silica in preparation of high-quality cement which is expected to drive the need for Fumed Silica market in the forecasted period. Further, the increasing demand for Fumed Silica in Agriculture as a fertilizer for crop enhancement and in the food and beverage industry is expected to propel the demand for Fumed Silica in the forecasted period. Furthermore, the surging Pharmaceutical Industry is expected to further increase the demand for Fumed Silica in the forecasted period. However, the stringent government regulations on the use of fumed Silica as it could affect the health of humans could hamper the growth of Fumed Silica in the forecasted periods.

Fumed Silica is majorly worn as an anticaking agent and thickening agent. The major application fragment of fumed Silica includes paints, coatings, inks, adhesives, and sealants. Coatings, cosmetics, plastics, paints, adhesives, sealants, and unsaturated polyester resins are just a few of the industries that employ pyrogenic Silica. Fumed Silica is also worn as an anti-settling ingredient in the paint and coating industries. Fumed Silica can be used as an excipient in pharmaceutical products. 

The Construction Industry is a prime consumer of Fumed Silica globally and is expected to drive the future market. The construction & building industry is the fastest-growing sector in the world. The increasing population has raised the demand for low-cost living and office spaces in large metropolitan cities. Countries have also been upgrading their infrastructure, which indirectly attracts foreign investments, thus increasing their growth rate. Fumed Silica is the second-largest material consumed by humans for construction after water. Fumed Silica is used in the construction industry to make high-performance concrete. Fumed Silica has a broad range of applications in the building and construction industry, including pipes, architectural coatings, electrical wiring within building walls and ceilings, ducts, basements, glazing frames, ceiling joints, floors, roofs, cladding, retaining walls, bathroom components external walls, and fixtures, corrosion-resistant tanks, cultured marble, panels for floor and walls, sanitary-ware, and tanks. Fumed Silica is capable of imparting high compressive strength high flexural strength, increasing the toughness and durability of concrete, increasing the bond strength, increasing the electrical resistance of concrete, and decreasing the permeability of concrete to water. Fumed Silica is a highly pozzolanic material used in the construction industry to enhance concrete mechanical and durability properties. The increasing usage of high-quality concrete is expected the drive the Fumed Silica market in the forecasted years. More than 50% of the global GDP is generated in cities, and urbanization can lead to sustainable growth if managed well by increasing productivity.

The Asia Pacific has been the dominating region both in the production and consumption of Fumed Silica and is expected to continue at the same pace. The construction industry is on the rise due to the surge in urbanization in the region, increasing the demand for Fumed Silica in the forecasted years. The North American region is the second most dominating region, with the United States dominating the market. In the pharmaceutical industry, tablets and capsules are a significant challenge but fumed silica aids enhance properties to make the procedure much easier. Fumed Silica has many uses in tablet-making, such as adsorbents, disintegrates, or glidants, anticaking agents, to allow powder to move freely when tablets are prepared. These compounds emerge to be biologically inert. The industry is raising its demand for fumed Silica as it improves the property of paints and coatings to meet consumer needs. Fumed Silica in sealants shows thixotropic properties and gives sag-specific characteristics for successful practical application. It also offers reinforcement and mechanic properties to sealants. These characteristics cannot be achieved by any other source, and hence fumed Silica has a benefit in the sealants market and enjoys supremacy. A growing construction industry across the world is accelerating the demand for paints and coating, in turn offering considerable growth opportunities for the fumed silica market. The United States is one of the largest agricultural producers and users of agricultural fertilizers globally. Average pesticide expenditures in the United States were 5% in 2012 and 6.2% in 2016 of total farm expenditures. The demand for food crops has been surging, and farmers have increased the use of fertilizers to enhance the crop output. Fumed Silica is extensively used in the pharmaceuticals industry as a glidant, filler, disintegrant, binder, lubricant, and sorbent. The overall economic impact of the pharmaceutical industry on the U.S. economy is substantial. The industry accounts for more than USD 2 trillion in economic output, representing nearly 5% of the total U.S. output. Moreover, the United States attracts most global venture capital investments in start-up biopharmaceutical enterprises. The Food and Beverage Industry is expected to reach USD 26,774 million in 2021, with user penetration expected to be around 32.7% by the end of 2021. Since fumed Silica is used extensively in the food and beverage industry to improve purity and desirability, decolourizing liquid syrups, and purify edible oil, the fumed silica market is expected to surge in the United States during the forecasted years.

Major global players in the industry were Tosoh Corporation, Wacker Chemie AG, Oriental Silicas Corporation, Nissan Chemical Corporation, and Evonik Industries AG.

In May 2021, Cabot Corporation announced a joint venture with China National Bluestar Group to build a second Fumed Silica manufacturing facility in China.

In October 2019, Wacker Chemie AG expanded its production facility by inaugurating a new facility in Charleston for fumed Silica with an annual capacity of 13,000 metric tons for its HDK brand.
