The global cinder market will witness robust growth over the forecast period. Cinder, commonly referred to as “lava rock” is used mainly as an aquaponics growth bed medium. It is a small black or red-colored pebble-like material that is porous and provides aeration when used in a growth medium. It has a huge capacity to absorb water and also provides maximum surface area for the nitrifying bacteria to grow and thrive. The pH required for the growth of plants in hydroponics or aquaponics is also well maintained. Hawaii, located in the U.S., has a larger production of cinder due to its volcanic eruptions. Hawaii is famous for its volcano national parks. In Japan, Aquaponics has a niche market here therefore it shows significant growth for the cinder market as well.
The key companies include DuPont, Primavera Aquaponics LLC, Japan Aquaponics, Puna Rock Co. Ltd., and Hawaii Island Cinder LLC.
