The article reports on the expansion and growth of the industry of ground calcium carbonate (GCC) as of April 2011. It is noted that Europe and North America are tailing behind Asia in GCC production. The growth is attributed to an increasing demand from the paper industry, which is cited as the main end market of GCC. The main challenges of the GCC market include increasing transport and energy costs.
