Market Overview

For the Quarter Ending September 2021

North America

During the third quarter of 2021, an improvement in the consuming market was observed in the North American region. Colloidal Silicon Dioxide prices in the US witnessed an upward trajectory during this timeframe backed by several factors. Due to the arrival of Ida hurricane along the Gulf Coast of the US, many production units and refineries remained closed for about a fortnight that impacted the production levels and squeezed the supply chains. It consequently affected the Colloidal Silicon Dioxide market in this quarter. Furthermore, expensive transportation charges also contributed to the inflation in the prices of Colloidal Silicon dioxide in this period.

Asia

Asian Colloidal Silicon Dioxide market noted improvement in the offtakes from downstream buyers in third quarter of 2021 after the resurgence in the industrial and market activities. In India market sentiments witnessed improvement backed by the surge in the production and consumption. Robust demand from the construction, paints and coatings and pharmaceuticals sector was seen that aided the pricing trend of the Colloidal Silicon Dioxide in India. Moreover, skyrocketing freight charges and crippled availability of shipping containers also pushed up the prices of Colloidal Silicon Dioxide as traders faced difficulties to procure the product owing to the freight congestion. Hence, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide Ex-Mumbai prices rose from USD 5817.94 per MT to USD 6144.53 per MT during the timeframe of July to September.

Europe

During the third quarter of 2021, Colloidal Silicon Dioxide market showcased mixed sentiments in Europe. At the beginning of the quarter, supply of the product in the European region improved owing to the ease in the imports and high production rates to meet the demands of the domestic as well as overseas market. However, in the latter half, an upsurge in the prices of Colloidal Silicon Dioxide was observed backed by the expensive production costs and supply chain disruption as an impact of Ida hurricane and congestion on the trade routes. Additionally, spiralling freight charges further contributed to the pricing trend of Colloidal Silicon Dioxide in this timeframe across the European region.
