In 2024, Fuller’s Earth sold or used for animal feed in the US is forecasted at 53.55 thousand metric tons. This is a reduction from the 2023 volume, highlighting a continuous downward trend expected to persist through 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years projects a steady decline. Analyzing the year-on-year variation reveals minor annual decreases of less than 1% each year, depicting an industry under slight downward pressure.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Shifts in animal feed manufacturing practices.
- Innovations in alternative ingredients that could replace Fuller’s Earth.
- Regulatory changes affecting its use in feed formulation.
