Improving Lifestyle and advancement in Technology
Improvements in lifestyle and technology have created a positive impact socially. People are focusing on quality rather than quantity and are aware of the innovations. The Rise in new construction techniques such as self-healing concrete and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), has attracted people, forcing them to upgrade their way of living.
Self-healing concrete is healing cracks by itself. Such technological innovations and improving the lifestyle of the population in various regions such as Asia Pacific, North America, Middle East & Africa, and Europe are anticipated to drive the market.
Expansion of the global construction sector
Infrastructure is an essential driver for the economic growth of many regions. Roads, electricity, public utilities, water systems, railways, airports, and telecommunications are an important part of economic development. Rising urbanization in emerging nations is expected to boost the various infrastructure sectors such as power and transport.
Increasing trends in infrastructural development, growing IT and manufacturing industries, and rising quality of construction works, which are boosting the demand for raw materials such as cement, concrete block, and pipes are fueling the market.
For instance, Oxford Economics estimates that the global construction industry was valued at USD 10.7 trillion in 2020 and USD 5.7 trillion of this output was in emerging markets.
Rising demand for strong, quick to install, and durable materials
Increasing demand for strong, quick installation and durable materials is anticipated to drive the market. Concrete pipes do not change or lose their shape akin to other pipes, as they are strong.
According to the House of Commons Select Committee on Environment, Transport and Regional Affairs, concrete pipes are not affected by damage caused by jetting, rodent attacks, fire attacks, floods, and other natural calamities.
Concrete pipes and blocks are strong, robust, and durable and hence, they do not require any special protection. Concrete pipes and blocks are used in drainage systems due to their high resistance to damage.
Increasing demand for cost-effective products
Growing demand for cost-effective products is expected to drive the market in the coming years. The construction industry requires a huge amount of capital for the construction of residences, commercial buildings, and roadways; therefore, people search for cost-effective products.
Concrete pipelines are low cost, as they can be employed without using full granular bedding, and during the installation excavated materials can be reused, thus saving costs.
Free trade is a policy in which governments force for completely no taxes or duties, tariffs on imports, and export activities. This slows down the competition of products between economies, thus reducing revenue. For example, the US government has revoked the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) that created a trilateral trade bloc in North America.
Similar to the US, many developed and developing countries are imposing restrictions on free trade, these can affect the demand and supply of raw materials including construction materials such as concrete products, thus hindering the market in the coming years.
Infrastructure spending is rising, thus fueling road construction activities. This has created huge investments in construction materials, such as concrete pipes and cement.
Increasing infrastructural development is directly proportional to road construction infrastructure, in terms of smooth transportation and seamless connectivity. However, concrete pipes and blocks are used in multiple works, which include underground constructions such as drainage and roadside barriers. This has created ample opportunities for market players.
