Calcium Sulfate Price Trend and Forecast
Get the latest insights on price movement and trend analysis of Calcium Sulfate in different regions across the world (Asia, Europe, North America, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa).
For the First Half of 2022
Gypsum is a natural mineral that is the dihydrate form of calcium sulfate. It is subject to further treatment to get the anhydrous calcium sulfate. Hence, the price trends for calcium sulfate closely follow that of gypsum. In the Chinese domestic market, feedstock gypsum prices surged due to supply-side constraints and rising inflation.
Gypsum is marketed at different rates depending on the final setting time. In China, the price of gypsum powder with 15 min final setting time averaged 370 RMB/MT, whereas the price of high-quality gypsum powder with 40 min final setting time averaged 660 RMB/MT.
In Mexico, gypsum's price and demand have increased by 12% since April 2022. In the USA, the producer price index for gypsum has risen from 315.51 in January to 338.09 in June 2022, indicating a constant price rise. The material shortages, rising prices and labour shortages have caused the building costs to increase by 10% between March to June 2022 in the US domestic market. Thus, the price trends of calcium sulfate remained anchored globally owing to the increased prices of feedstock gypsum.

Calcium sulfate is a naturally occurring calcium salt. It is commonly known in its dihydrate form, gypsum- an odorless white power. Calcium sulfate crystals sometimes have a blue, grey, or reddish tinge or can be brick red. It is a common groundwater contaminant, causing hardness that cannot be removed by boiling. Calcined gypsum is used in making tile, wallboard, lath, and various plasters. When gypsum is heated, it loses three-quarters of its water, becoming the hemihydrate commonly known as Plaster of Paris, a widely used construction material.
