“Sustainable Production Methods Gaining Momentum”
- Environmental regulations and sustainability goals are pushing manufacturers to adopt greener production methods for high purity calcium sulfate, focusing on reducing emissions and optimizing resource utilization
- Innovations in waste valorization and circular economy strategies such as utilizing industrial by-products are being explored to minimize raw material dependency and lower carbon footprints
- These eco-friendly practices are gaining traction across industries such as construction and pharmaceuticals, which are increasingly seeking sustainable additives that meet both performance and environmental standards
- For instance, in August 2023, Saint-Gobain launched a pilot project to recover and purify gypsum from construction waste, producing high-purity calcium sulfate for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications
- This trend reflects a broader shift toward sustainable manufacturing and is expected to reshape the market landscape, especially in regions with strict environmental policies
