The global Zircon Coating market size is predicted to grow from US$ 507 million in 2025 to US$ 577 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.2% from 2025 to 2031.
Zircon is widely used in the foundry industry, mostly in the form of sand and flour (milled sand) for casting and refractory applications. Zircon’s properties make it ideal as a moulding base material for sand casting and investment casting, in addition to use as mould coating in die casting and in refractory paints and washes to reduce the wettability of other foundry sands. Ceramics industry is the largest market for zircon consuming over half of the zircon produced globally. While around 85% of it used in the ceramics industry is used in tile production, zircon also has a significant role to play in advanced ceramics. Zircon coatings are used wisely in the ceramic & foundry sectors, most notably in the manufacture of ceramic tiles. They also have many other critical and unique uses across the global industrial sector. The role that zircon and its derivatives play in today’s world is far-reaching and because of its unique qualities and environmental credentials, its importance is still growing. From bathrooms to life enhancing medical implants, there are many other applications and use cases of zircon coatings in the modern world.
