One of the main driving forces behind the cement and concrete additives market's expansion is the surge in demand for large-scale structures in emerging nations as a result of growing industrialization and urbanization. Additionally, the market has grown as a result of increased government initiatives to build infrastructure, rising use of cement additives in flooring, roofing, doors, and walls in residential and commercial projects, and increased awareness of interior temperature control features in various materials. Cement consumption rates are rising as a result of increased building in developing countries like Vietnam, China, and India, and this is expected to have a substantial impact on the growth of the cement additive market. Future overall product consumption rates are expected to be boosted by consumer demands for better and high-quality cement, which can also provide waterproofing properties, stronger chemical resistance, color, and high water reduction.
The main objective of cement and concrete additives is to enhance the properties that make them useful, hence extending the life and firmness of the building. The cement and concrete additives market will almost probably be significantly influenced by the rising demand for high-performance materials. The demand for construction materials has increased as a result of the construction industry's hasty adoption of technical advancements to boost production. The market for cement additives is anticipated to expand quickly in the next years. One of the main factors propelling the market is the growing building industry. The cement and concrete additives market is anticipated to expand as a result of cost, time, water, and construction-quality savings. Increased demand for cement additives is being caused by rising construction activity in developing nations like Vietnam, China, and India.
Due to their outstanding qualities, such as strength augmentation, grinding, water reduction, retarders, waterproofing, and other features, cement and concrete additives are in high demand for commercial building and construction applications. Due to reasons like increasing investments in commercial construction projects, development plans for commercial spaces, and urbanization, the commercial building and construction industry is expanding quickly. For instance, the CBRE Group anticipates growth in office space of between 10 and 15% until 2023. The Airport Authority of India (AAI) reports that the announcement to build 100 more airports by 2024 was made in 2020. Statistics Canada reports that in December 2021 compared to the prior year, investments in commercial building increased by 1.7%. The need for cement and concrete additives and admixtures is growing along with the number of commercial construction projects for commercial office buildings, airports, hospitals, and other facilities, which in turn is driving the cement and concrete additives sector. Thus, driving the Cement and Concrete Additives market revenue.
The Cement and Concrete Additives market segmentation, based on Type, includes Chemical Additives, Mineral Additives, and Fiber Additives. Chemical additives segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2022. Chemical additives such plasticizers, retarders, water-reducers, coloring agents, and others are expanding quicker than other types of additives because of their improved setting time, strength enhancement, and good water reduction content. The need for chemical additives is being fueled by the huge increase in the application of water-reducing additives, high-value plasticizers, and other additions for construction activities. However, it is projected that mineral additives would experience the largest growth in the upcoming years. Examples of minerals include rice husk ash, fly ash, and silica slag. Due to growing attempts to maximize the use of industrial waste products such fly ash and blast furnace slag, the demand for mineral additives is predicted to expand.
The Cement and Concrete Additives market segmentation, based on Application, includes Residential Construction, Commercial Construction, and Industrial. Residential construction segment dominated the Cement and Concrete Additives market in 2022. Residential buildings, apartments, houses, and other structures are using cement & concrete additives or admixtures like rice husk ash, fly ash, silica fume, polypropylene, gypsum, and others more and more because of their superior binding properties, chemical resistance, waterproofing, and strength-enhancement. For instance, an additional 25 million affordable housing units are required by 2030, according to the Economic Times Housing Finance Summit.
