In 2024, Cape Verde continued to rely on key suppliers such as Portugal, Netherlands, Italy, China, and Spain for precipitated silica imports. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market, with a notable 23.14% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2020 to 2024. The impressive growth rate of 22.55% from 2023 to 2024 suggests a strong upward trajectory in demand for precipitated silica in Cape Verde, underscoring the importance of these importing countries in meeting the market needs.

Precipitated silica is used in various industries, including rubber, cosmetics, and food processing. The market for precipitated silica in Cape Verde is small but essential, supporting local manufacturing and processing activities. As industries that rely on precipitated silica continue to grow, particularly in the production of tires and personal care products, the demand for this versatile material is expected to increase.
The precipitated silica market in Cape Verde is driven by its use in a variety of applications, including rubber reinforcement, paints and coatings, and personal care products. Precipitated silica enhances the performance and properties of products, such as improving the strength and durability of rubber. The growth in industrial applications and consumer products supports the demand for precipitated silica.
The precipitated silica market in Cape Verde encounters challenges such as high import costs and the need for specialized manufacturing technology. There is a lack of local production facilities and technical expertise. The market is affected by competition from global suppliers and alternative silica products. Additionally, issues with supply chain logistics and distribution impact the availability and cost of precipitated silica.
Cape Verdes government could enhance the precipitated silica market by promoting its use in industrial and consumer products. Policies might involve providing incentives for local production, setting standards for silica quality and performance, and encouraging research into new applications and technologies for precipitated silica.
