ID: MRFR//10260-HCR | 128 Pages | Author: Snehal Singh| May 2024

The polished concrete industry market dynamics come into a swing as different elements stemming from the factors governing its growth path appear as a fascinating interplay of efforts. Using these techniques, polished concrete dates back to the time when it was discovered as a flooring option, as it is both highly durable and with low maintenance requirements while also with the aesthetic appeal. Among the many reasons which justify why the market is growing is the fact that the construction sector is playing a key role and architects and designers in different buildings are discovering polished concrete can perform well in residential and commercial spaces. While sustainability continues to catch the attention of customers, the adoption has been growing as polished concrete is normally viewed as a green flooring option as compared to the less preferred traditional method.

Additionally, the progress of technologies in concrete polishing applications is one of the main factors that contribute to the change in market perspective. In the evolution of diamonds tools designing, chemical densifying and evolving polishing procedures are the contributing factor in market growth as well. The fact that installing a floor coat is a breeze and that it is possible to overlay installations to existing concrete surfaces have at the same time been the two main factors powering the product’s rising popularity.

In addition consumer preferences and trends exert equally meaningful influence on a polished concrete market. Polished concrete is an excellent example of the modern sleek and minimalist appeal, and is therefore very appropriate for architecture trends. Whether it is some architectural structure or a business enterprise, the polished concrete floors seem to take their places. It is a desirable option because it is very affordable and stylish. Expanding the visual effect also creates customization possibilities, such as different level of sheens and decorative effects, and you can make your product suitable for various aesthetic preferences.

Nevertheless, this (the) sector of the market has dynamics that should be looked into and dealt with. The expense of installation of polished concrete at first glance may be higher from the point of view of the other flooring variants, and that makes its utilization somewhat more difficult or less frequent. Incomes of customers will grow and they will be ready to invest in durable indoors with the help of education on the long-term profits and cost-saving features of polished concrete which is crucial in defeating this barrier. Besides, rivalry comes as a result of various kinds of alternatives like luxury vinyl, hardwood, and ceramic tiles and thus creating an additional complexity to the market forces.

A physical factor is also of significance and the market outcomes can be affected by geographic factors as well. For regions witnessing big building activity such as Asia-Pacific and the Middle East, the remarkable level of demand for polished concrete is escalating at a rocketing pace. In such regions, and often in infrastructure and construction projects, these lead to new construction works and require durable, attractive flooring options.

Polished Concrete Market Trends




  • Growth in construction of new residential & commercial spaces is driving the market growth




The high need for polished concrete in the building of hotel flooring and other commercial constructions is one of the primary causes of the rise in demand for it. This is mainly because polished concrete has a number of advantages, such as good visual appeal for floors, resistance to slipping, and resilience to wear and tear from high foot traffic. Both in the Middle East and Africa as well as the Asia-Pacific area, a significant increase in demand is anticipated. Due to the significant investments made in housing expansions and the quick industrialization of these developing nations, the demand for polished concrete is projected to increase. The demand for polished concrete is expected to expand as a result of a building's or facility's greater visual appeal.


During the projected period, it is anticipated that the fluctuating raw material and energy costs associated with producing polished concrete will persist. The price of cement, sealants, and adhesives used in polished concrete could rise as a result of fluctuations in the cost of raw materials caused by the price of crude oil and petroleum products. Therefore, the price of these parts directly affects the price of polished concrete. In response to growing raw material costs, vendors raise the price of their products, reducing the potential for polished concrete's market share to increase.


There will be a significant increase in the number of redevelopment and refurbishment projects in non-residential structures during the projected year. In an effort to attract more guests and enhance the lodging experience, hotel and resort owners are also renovating the buildings that house their businesses. For instance, in September 2019, JW Marriott opened a brand-new hotel in Canberra, Australia. The hotel features the newest design highlights and polished concrete flooring, which enhances the floors' aesthetic attractiveness. Additionally, it is anticipated that increased industry investment in the retail and residential development industries will speed up the use of polished concrete. Thus, driving the Polished Concrete market revenue.
