Market Growth Drivers: Semiconductors, Solar, and Regional Trends

A surge in semiconductor fabrication and photovoltaic (PV) solar installations globally is fueling demand. Semiconductor manufacturers rely on ultra-purity quartz for wafer processing and crucibles, while the solar industry requires high-grade quartz for silicon ingot creation.

Regionally, the East Asia market is anticipated to expand from USD 241.8 million in 2025 to USD 364.9 million by 2035, with a CAGR of 4.2%. Europe's market will grow from USD 152.8 million to USD 221.9 million in the same period, also at a 3.8% CAGR. North America is expected to show moderate growth, rising from USD 135.2 million to USD 185.3 million at a CAGR of 3.2%. Meanwhile, South Asia & Oceania will grow from USD 101.5 million to USD 150.2 million, at a CAGR of 4%.

By Grade: Leading Segments and Purity Levels

Across all regions, specific purity grades dominate. Wafer processing-a key application-holds around 40% of the global market share in 2025. In North America, the 4N grade (99.99% purity) leads at 36% share, while both Europe and East Asia show strong adoption of 3N purity levels (38-40%). The demand for even higher grades, up to 5N purity, is growing as semiconductor and solar technologies advance.
