Middle East and Africa Metakaolin Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Application (Ceramics, Mortars and Concrete Admixtures, Refractories, and Others)
Market Introduction
The Middle East and Africa metakaolin market is a highly fragmented market with the presence of considerable regional and local players providing numerous solutions for companies investing in the market arena. There has been a rise in the trend of 3D printing with concrete in recent years, which is one of the niche areas of additive manufacturing. Concrete 3D printing optimizes the material use and reduces costs and wastes in the process. To formulate a cement mixture having superior mechanical and printability properties, researchers are focusing on the use of calcined clay for concrete 3D printing. Calcined clay has excellent compressive strength and is cost-efficient, which makes it a suitable alternative to standard concrete. Various studies have used metakaolin-based alkali-activated concrete for 3D printing due to its dimensional integrity and valuable mechanical behaviour. Thus, the increase in studies regarding the use of metakaolin geopolymer for 3D printing would increase the usage of metakaolin in the 3D printing industry in the coming years.
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the construction industry across the Middle East and Africa to decline in construction activities. Various chemicals and materials companies have remained closed as a result of lockdowns, resulting in a decrease in the sale of various items including metakaolin. Slowdown in the demand from concrete and ceramic industries is negatively impacting the market growth across the region. However, the implementation of effective government policies in countries like the UAE have significantly revived the industrial activities across the region which is projected to favor the growth of metakaolin market in the Middle East and Africa during the forecast period.

Market Overview and Dynamics
The metakaolin market in Middle East and Africa is expected to grow from US$ 69.53 million in 2021 to US$ 90.27 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2021 to 2028. Widespread adoption of new building standards, which are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, propels the demand for sustainable construction materials. Metakaolin is a highly reactive pozzolan, which works well when combined with slag or fly ash, allowing larger cement replacements to be achieved, resulting in an environmentally friendly concrete. It is a naturally produced material. Also, it does not release pollutants like traditional cement and is mostly used by builders to reduce carbon emissions. Metakaolin has various characteristics that provide environmental benefits, such as less energy consumption, emission reduction, and the potential to be recycled and reused, which make metakaolin a sustainable construction material that is a preferred choice for a variety of applications. Metakaolin also increases the durability of the concrete to sulfate attack, chloride ingress, and alkali-silica reaction, thus increasing sustainability through increased service life. Growing awareness about environment sustainability across the region is one of the primary factors supporting the growth of Middle East and Africa metakolin market. Moreover, metakaolin is widely used to produce green concrete which is used for constructing green buildings. Growing initiatives by various governments around the region to develop sustainable economies for long-term growth is expected to contribute to the growth of metakaolin market over the forecast period.
