Maifanite Stone Market to Reach USD 55,342 Million by 2031 Globally

Maifanite, also known as Maifan stone, is a naturally mineralrich volcanic rock traditionally used in water purification, healthcare, agriculture, and environmental remediation. Native to China, this porous stone gradually releases beneficial trace minerals such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, and iron and adsorbs heavy metals like lead and mercury to neutralize water acidity. Its natural ionexchange and adsorption properties have made it popular in bottled water filters, detox devices, soil conditioners, and health supplements, especially in East Asian wellness traditions.

In 2024, the global Maifanite stone market was valued at approximately USD 42,040 million. The market is forecast to reach USD 55,342 million by 2031, expanding at a 3.9% CAGR from 2024 through 2031. Growth is underpinned by rising interest in natural health products, environmental water treatment, and agricultural soil improvement in emerging markets.

Latest Trends and Technological Developments
On June 2025, the global Maifanite markets projected CAGR of 3.9% through 2031 and emphasized expansion opportunities in environmental and household applications. In late 2024, agriculture publications reported increased use of ceramic Maifanite beads as soil conditioners to enhance water retention and nutrient release in highyield farming particularly in China and India. Also in early 2025, beverage packaging brands began embedding Maifanite inserts in premium bottled water lines marketed in East Asia, positioning the stone as a natural mineralizing agent targeted to wellness consumers.
AsiaPacific is the largest regional market for Maifanite, accounting for more than 60% of global revenue in 2024 approximately USD 25-26 billion driven by widespread use in water treatment, agricultural conditioning, and health markets. China dominates both mining and consumption, while Japan and Korea lead innovation in health product applications. The Indian agricultural sector is increasingly experimenting with Maifanite soil amendments to combat micronutrient deficiencies. Lucintel identifies APAC as the fastestgrowing region through the forecast period.

Regional Insights
Southeast Asia which includes Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines captures an estimated USD 3.5-4 billion in Maifanite revenue in 2024, growing at roughly 4-5% CAGR toward 2031. Growth is driven by adoption in local bottled water brands, smallscale agricultural enhancers, and wellness supplements. However, much of the supply is imported from China, creating opportunities for domestic processing or regional distribution partnerships. Regional wellness brands are increasingly forming cobranding partnerships with Maifan producers in China and Japan.

The sector faces a high cost of bulk exports and logistics due to the rocks low value per ton. Quality and mineral content vary across deposits, complicating standardization and premium pricing. Counterfeits or lowgrade Maifanite marketed as health products remain an issue especially in informal ASEAN retail channels. Regulation around claims for health or medical benefits can limit marketing as dietary supplements. Agricultural and environmental standards also vary by country, complicating acceptance of Maifanite soil conditioners or water treatment beads.
Producers should invest in onshore processing or valueadd operations in Southeast Asia to reduce shipping cost and support quality control. Cobranding or exclusive supply agreements with bottled water producers and health supplement firms can lift ASPs. Developing standardized grading protocols based on measured mineral content and purification efficacy would support premium positioning. For agriculture, partnering with cooperatives or crop input companies to pilot soil blending or groundwater remediation helps validate benefits. Finally, establishing regional distribution centers in ASEAN can provide faster service and branding alignment.
