In April 2025, Calcium Chloride market has fallen slightly, driven by reduced downstream demand and stable manufacture costs. Despite steady Calcium Chloride feedstock availability and minimal volatility in natural gas and limestone prices, market sentiment remained soft.

The slowdown in infrastructure investment and delayed construction activity, coupled with lingering uncertainty from proposed U.S. tariffs. Calcium Chloride Buyers largely avoided bulk purchasing in favour of short-term fulfilment strategies. Unless demand from key sectors—such as de-icing, dust control, and concrete additives—picks up meaningfully in Q2, prices are expected to stay under slight downward pressure.

U.S. Calcium Chloride producers operated at stable rates through March, with no major plant outages or supply disruptions reported. Calcium Chloride Feedstocks such as limestone and hydrochloric acid remained adequately available, and energy inputs showed minimal cost movement. Logistics conditions were favourable, with reduced freight rates and well-balanced supplies at terminals. However, producers were careful about surplus, adjusting output to align with moderate market pull. While labour shortages and inflationary cost pressures persisted, they did not significantly affect supply availability or distribution timelines during the month.

Overall demand for Calcium Chloride remained muted in March, reflecting a slow transition out of the winter de-icing season and weak activity in construction-related segments.

Calcium Chloride Seasonal demand for snow and ice control tapered off across most northern states by mid-March. With inventories largely depleted from earlier procurement, municipalities opted for maintenance-level restocking only. Mild late-winter weather further dampened volume requirements.

Demand from dust suppression, especially in unpaved roads and energy sectors, remained flat. Oil and gas well-servicing activity showed no significant uptick due to cautious CAPEX amid fluctuating crude prices and export limitations.

The construction sector aided to modest Calcium Chloride usage, particularly for early strength gain. However, high interest rates and labor shortages limited new project starts. The March construction jobs report, while showing a 13,000-job increase, reflected the slowest YoY growth in four years, suggesting cautious momentum heading into Q2.

As per our Database, the prices of Calcium Chloride are expected to increase in the month of June. This development is likely to take place amid rise in the prices of feedstock limestone. Furthermore, rise in the Calcium Chloride demand from the downstream sector like construction sector due to increased seasonal activity is likely to bring prices in the upward direction. Moreso, the government's policy for domestic production is estimated to bring higher domestic demand thus causing higher product queries.
