Construction Materials Market Trends




  • Government initiatives favoring an increase in the number of smart cities is driving the market growth




Various governments are looking at smarter solutions to manage traffic complexity, increase efficiency, and improve the quality of life due to rising urbanization and rapid expansion of remote locations. Cities now need to monitor and integrate infrastructure in order to maximize services to inhabitants and make the most use of available resources. Through innovative technologies like data-driven traffic management and intelligent lighting systems, the smart city program seeks to support inclusive and sustainable communities that provide the essential infrastructure for a good standard of living and a healthy environment. The goal is to take a close look at crowded areas and develop a repeatable model to act as a guide for other aspirant cities.


The industry is primarily driven by an increase in government spending on infrastructure development, including building and infrastructure projects. Concrete and wall cladding, as well as precast materials and elements, are used in several industries, including tunnel construction. With an expected two billion more people living in cities by 2040, there will be a significant increase in the demand for infrastructure such highways, subways, tunnels, common areas, and commercial facilities. The need for advanced material for construction applications is being driven by the need for products with shorter production times and lower costs. Additionally, using precast materials and parts as well as ready-mix concrete cuts down significantly on building time. For instance, precast concrete pavement allowed for the construction of a road in Nagpur, India, in just six hours in February 2020, as opposed to the usual eight to ten days or longer. Similar to this, Gage Brothers Concrete Products used precast concrete components to construct a 440,000 square foot N95 manufacturing facility in approximately 52 days in January 2021.


One of the key market-driving aspects is the advancement of production technologies for advanced building materials. Advance construction materials are likewise being offered by many significant innovators. For instance, Kingspan Group acquired Ondura in September 2021 in order to grow its roofing and waterproofing business across Europe and North America. These elements are fueling the demand for innovative building materials. When compared to conventional construction materials, the cost of producing advanced building materials is higher. To operate on these advanced materials, advanced machinery is needed. Customers who don't need equipment constantly or for a long time are therefore unable to purchase such a costly gadget. Additionally, not all consumers have the financial means to purchase such pricey equipment. The market's expansion is hampered by the higher cost of modern construction materials. Alternative building materials are also green materials because they are entirely eco-friendly and produce no hazardous gases or radiation. Therefore, the market for innovative building materials is constrained by the rise of environmentally friendly construction materials. Thus, driving the Construction Materials market revenue.


In April 2024, Navrattan Group, a construction corporation, revealed their intention to bring eco-friendly "Green Cement" to the Indian building sector, signaling a forthcoming environmentally conscious transformation. This product offers a solution to the increasing need for sustainable building materials without sacrificing performance or durability. Green cement, often known as sustainable or eco-friendly cement, serves as a substitute for conventional Portland cement. It aids in reducing carbon emissions and minimizing the environmental effect associated with the production of concrete. Green cement employs alternative materials and production processes to reduce its carbon footprint, in contrast to conventional cement production that consumes significant energy and emits substantial amounts of carbon dioxide. The introduction of green cement will cater to the increasing need for environmentally-friendly construction materials in India's rapidly rising construction industry. As the country's infrastructure development continues to advance, there is a pressing requirement for environmentally-friendly solutions that can fulfill both the environmental and building requirements.

Construction Materials Industry Developments


March 2022: The EU Horizon program has awarded financing to the LEILAC-2 carbon capture project, according to a statement from Calix and Heidelberg Cement. The project sought to capture almost 100,000 tons of CO2 annually, or 20% of the CO2 emissions from the Hanover cement plant.


In January 2024, Heidelberg Materials unveils its next worldwide product brand, evoBuild, which focuses on low-carbon and circular products. evoBuild goods are distinguished by their evident sustainable characteristics, and each product must satisfy rigorous criteria to be included in the collection. Heidelberg Materials is the pioneering firm in the heavy building materials market that is employing internationally standardized standards to designate sustainable products. The company will gradually incorporate its sustainable products into the evoBuild range in all the countries where it operates. evoBuild goods will be accessible across all business sectors and exhibit either low-carbon characteristics (in the case of cement and concrete) or circular properties (in the case of concrete), or a mix of both. Low-carbon products must achieve a minimum 30% decrease in COâ‚‚ emissions relative to the reference value. Circular goods must have a minimum of 30% recycled aggregates incorporated into their composition, or they must decrease their material needs by at least 30%. An example of this is Heidelberg Materials' specialized mortar designed for 3D concrete printing.
