2. Hydrophobic Silica Production and Price Overview Historical Growth Rates and Past Performance Hydrophobic silica production has shown a steady climb from roughly 130,000 MT in 2015 to around 290,000 MT in 2024. From 2015 to 2018, hydrophobic silica production posted growth of 7–8% annually, then jumped to a 12% average during 2019–2021 before settling to 5–6% in the last two years. Hydrophobic silica production in 2025 is forecast to reach about 310,000 MT thanks to stable downstream consumption. Continued advances in performance coatings and plastics have helped maintain healthy hydrophobic silica production growth. Hydrophobic silica price in 2025 is tracking close to $3,300 per MT after peaking near $3,450 per MT during late 2023. The hydrophobic silica price in 2025 is supported by higher transportation fees and energy costs. The hydrophobic silica price in 2025 has ranged between $3,200 and $3,350 per MT in the first two quarters. 02 Request a sample at - https://datavagyanik.com/reports/global-hydrophobic-silica-market-size-production-sales-average-product-price-market- share-import-vs-export-united-states-europe-apac-latin-america-middle-east-africa/

3. Key Factors Impacting Hydrophobic Silica Prices in 2025 Several data-backed drivers are shaping the hydrophobic silica price in 2025. Silicon feedstock rose 16% in cost from 2023 levels, adding to the hydrophobic silica price in 2025. Additionally, European and Asian electricity rates remain elevated, on average 8% higher year over year, sustaining higher costs for hydrophobic silica production and thus the hydrophobic silica price in 2025. Shipping rates for Asian containers climbed 17% by early 2025, pressuring the hydrophobic silica price in 2025.Further, tighter permitting in Germany and stricter safety standards in Chinese plants have removed a small portion of capacity in Q1 2025, indirectly supporting the hydrophobic silica price in 2025. Robust consumption in electronics, batteries, and auto parts, up roughly 9% in H1 2025, also strains supply and strengthens the hydrophobic silica price in 2025. Currency shifts, with a weaker yen and euro, are adding 3–4% to landed costs for importers, helping sustain the current hydrophobic silica price in 2025 across many international markets while producers work to stabilize output. 03

6. Economic Indicators & External Factors For 2025, global PMI holds steady near 52, a modestly positive sign for hydrophobic silica production. Brent oil prices average $82/barrel, supporting high energy input costs. Natural gas pricing advanced roughly 7% year over year, impacting production facilities. Global inflation around 4% continues to lift wages, materials, and maintenance costs. Tariffs on select Chinese chemical exports still affect about 4% of silica trade flows. Exchange rate changes, with the euro moving to $1.08 and yuan near ¥7.22, further raise costs for importers. Combined, these signals support elevated hydrophobic silica moderate but steady pricing in 2025. production costs and 06
