The export of kaolin and other kaolinic clays from China in 2024 is forecasted to be 1.1443 billion kilograms, a modest increase from 2023 levels. The year-on-year variations indicate a slight but steady growth, with a 0.14% increase in 2025, followed by similar incremental rises each year, ultimately reaching 1.1505 billion kilograms by 2028. These forecasts suggest an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.09% over the next five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of global economic conditions on demand, advancements in kaolin processing technologies, and shifts in international trade policies that could affect export volumes. Environmental regulations and the sustainability of kaolin mining practices may also play significant roles in shaping the long-term outlook for China's kaolin exports.
