The construction chemicals market was valued at $34.18 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $52.25 billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2020 to 2027.
Construction chemicals are chemical compounds used in construction activities to modify the properties of building materials. Construction chemicals are mixed with construction materials such as cement, and concrete to improve workability, increase performance, add functionality and impart durability and strength to the structure. The construction chemicals are added building materials to enhance strength, quality, and durability and protect them from atmospheric degradation and hold the material together. Construction Chemicals are used in the construction of roads and bridges, airport and metro transit, industrial, commercial and residential construction and repair and rehab projects. Construction chemicals are used in new buildings, as well as for repair of the old buildings.
The major factors impacting the growth of the construction chemical market are rapid urbanization resulting in an increased need for infrastructural development, and increasing use of admixtures to enhance concrete properties, among others.
Rapid Urbanization:
The population in the urban area is increasing rapidly due to continuous migration from rural areas to urban. The people are moving to urban areas in search of better employment opportunities, education, and lifestyle. According to a United Nations report, 54% of the world’s population lives in urban areas and it is expected to grow by 66% by 2050 adding 2.5 billion people to the urban population. Growing urban population increases opportunities and demand for construction chemicals for transportation, housing, and infrastructure facilities development. The increasing disposable income of the urban population boosts people for an improved residential structure, thereby increasing the demand for construction chemicals.
Increasing Demand for Admixtures:
Admixtures is a substance that enhances the properties of concrete. Admixtures are a material that is mixed with concrete in addition to cement, water aggregates and additives like Pozzolana or slang. Admixtures can be blended with concrete before mixing or during mixing. The various types of admixtures on the basis of a function include air-entraining, retarding, accelerating, plasticizing, water-reducing, corrosion inhibition, workability enhancement, offsetting, dispersing alkali-silica reactivity reduction, bonding, waterproofing, superplasticizer, coloring, and damp proofing. The benefits of admixture such as a reduction in the cost of building, low water requirement, and enhanced setting time is expected to drive the construction chemicals market.

On the basis of construction chemicals, the concrete admixture is expected to have the largest share in the market. The concrete admixture is extensively used for reducing water content in concrete and enhance durability. The different types of admixtures include lingo-based admixtures, Sulfonated Naphthalene Formaldehyde (SNF), and Sulfonated Melamine Formaldehyde (SMF). Construction adhesives are expected to show prominent growth as they enhance the durability and bonding duration of adhesive. The different adhesives include cement-based adhesive, epoxy adhesive and polymer formulated adhesive. Protective coating offer resistance from oil, acids, solvents, and other containments therefore they are extensively used in new building and restoration of old buildings. Thus, it is estimated to show prominent market growth. The non-residential segment is anticipated to show lucrative growth owing to rapid urbanization in emerging economies.
