Jufu was a global leading industrial calcium carbonate mineral products and solutions company. It has its own high-quality mines and currently has large calcite and limestone mining rights.
In recent years, the global industrial calcium carbonate industry has been undergoing profound structural adjustments driven by technological breakthroughs, regional market dynamics, and upgraded environmental regulations, presenting distinct characteristics of "rising premiums for high-end products, emerging markets leading in growth rates, and green production becoming a core competitive edge".
At the technological level, nano-scale calcium carbonate preparation and functional modification technologies have become the focus of competition. European enterprises maintain a leading position in surface coating technology. Their specially produced calcium carbonate can improve the weather resistance of high-end coatings by 40% and account for more than 60% of the market share in the original automotive paint market. Asian enterprises, on the other hand, have made breakthroughs in large-scale production technology. A Japanese enterprise, through supercritical fluid grinding technology, has controlled the particle size deviation of products within 5 nanometers, doubled the production capacity compared with traditional equipment, and promoted a 15% reduction in the global supply cost of calcium carbonate for electronic packaging materials.
Regional markets show significant differentiation. Driven by the recovery of infrastructure investment, the demand for construction - use calcium carbonate in North America increased by 8% year - on - year in 2024, among which the application proportion of high - performance calcium carbonate in prefabricated components exceeded 30%. The Southeast Asian market performed particularly brilliantly. Due to the transfer of plastic and rubber industries to local areas in countries such as Vietnam and Indonesia, the annual growth rate of industrial calcium carbonate imports reached 22%. Chinese and Thai enterprises occupied 65% of the local market share by virtue of their cost - performance advantages. Driven by environmental regulations, the demand for bio - based calcium carbonate in the European market surged, with sales increasing by 50% year - on - year in 2024, and the price of related products was 2 - 3 times higher than that of traditional calcium carbonate.
Environmental policies have become a key variable in the industry reshuffle. After the implementation of the EU's "Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism" (CBAM), the export costs of high - energy - consuming calcium carbonate enterprises increased by an average of 12%, forcing enterprises to accelerate energy transformation. A leading German enterprise built the world's first 100% green electricity - driven production line, reducing carbon emissions by 70% compared with the industry average, obtaining the EU's "Sustainable Raw Materials" certification, and improving the premium capacity of its products in the high - end market to 25%. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has tightened dust emission limits, promoting the popularization rate of industrial dust recovery technology from 58% in 2020 to 89% in 2024.
Industry integration is accelerating. In 2024, the global industrial calcium carbonate industry's M&A transaction amount reached 3.7 billion U.S. dollars, a record high. Among them, North American enterprises focused on acquiring European special calcium carbonate technology companies, while Asian enterprises improved their regional layout by acquiring local factories in Southeast Asia. Analysts predict that by 2027, the global functional industrial calcium carbonate market scale will exceed 8 billion U.S. dollars, with a compound annual growth rate of 9.2%, and enterprises with the triple advantages of "technology + production capacity + green certification" are expected to occupy more than 50% of the high - end market share.
