Global Anhydrite Market to Reach USD 1.45 Billion by 2035; Asia Pacific Leads Growth, Reports FactMR

The global anhydrite market is poised for steady growth, driven by rising demand for building-grade applications, floor screeds, and sustainable construction materials. Asia Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region, supported by infrastructure expansion, urbanization, and advancements in processing technologies. Leading companies are focusing on innovation, sustainability, and strategic collaborations to strengthen their market presence.
Published 13 November 2025

The global anhydrite market is projected to grow steadily over the next decade, expanding from USD 1.1 billion in 2025 to USD 1.45 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 2.8%, according to a new report by FactMR. This growth is driven by increasing demand for specialized construction applications, advanced building materials, and sustainable cement additives worldwide.

Steady Growth Anchored by Building-Grade and Floor Screed Applications

The FactMR report, “Anhydrite Market Size, Share, and Forecast 2025–2035,” identifies building-grade anhydrite as the dominant product type, accounting for 55% of market share. Floor screed and gypsum replacement applications lead adoption, representing 45% of the overall market, supported by rapid installation capabilities, dimensional stability, and compatibility with underfloor heating systems.

“Anhydrite’s low shrinkage and high compressive strength make it a preferred choice for precision applications in flooring, plasters, and cement additives,” said a FactMR research analyst. “Its versatility and performance advantages over traditional gypsum products position it as a sustainable building material for modern construction.”

Market Dynamics: Supply, Innovation, and Sustainability

Supply chain dynamics influence market growth, with natural anhydrite extracted from evaporite deposits in Germany, Spain, France, and parts of North America, alongside synthetic production derived as a byproduct from hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid, and titanium dioxide processing. Manufacturers are investing in advanced processing technologies, including particle size optimization and chemical purification, to ensure consistent product quality and performance.

Sustainability is a key driver, with increasing recycling of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) by-products contributing to material availability and reducing reliance on mining. The shift toward environmentally friendly building materials further enhances anhydrite’s adoption in construction and industrial applications.
