Industrial Silica Sand Market Shows Fair Level of Fragmentation

Industrial silica sand market is fairly fragmented with key players such as U.S. Silica, Mitsubishi, Sibelco, and Fairmount Santrol accounting for half of the revenue share. While the market is fairly fragmented, penetration of the new entrants is low in the current scenario. Products launched by Tier-2 and Tier-3 stakeholders are slowly gaining global presence. Additionally, the number of players vying for a pie of the lucrative industrial silica sand market continues to increase with each passing year.
