MARKET ANALYSIS

Construction chemicals and materials are a diverse group of substances and products that are integral to the construction industry. These materials serve a wide range of applications, ranging from providing structural stability to enhancing the durability, safety, and overall performance of buildings and infrastructure. Construction chemicals and materials play a crucial role in infrastructure construction, facilitating the development of essential transportation, communication, and utility networks. High-strength concrete, corrosion-resistant steel, and advanced asphalt mixes are commonly used to ensure the longevity and structural integrity of these critical assets. Construction chemicals such as waterproofing agents and rust inhibitors are employed to protect against water intrusion and corrosion, reducing maintenance and repair costs over the long term.

GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES

Construction chemicals and materials encompass a wide range of substances and products used in the construction industry to enhance the quality, durability, and performance of structures. India is one of the most significant construction markets globally. The growth in construction activities in India is fueled by continuing industrialization, burgeoning population, increasing middle-class income, and infrastructure development. Furthermore, expansion in the commercial sector with the increase in per capita income in developing countries accelerates commercial construction activities. In commercial construction, construction chemicals and materials are added to increase strength and corrosion resistance, and they also bring down the cement and water volume consumed during the construction process. Moreover, the adoption of construction chemicals and materials in commercial buildings enhances the performance of buildings.

However, the fluctuations in the prices of raw materials can adversely impact the market growth. Construction chemicals and materials often rely on specific raw materials, such as polymers, resins, and chemicals. Polymers are prevalent in every construction chemical formulation, ranging from admixtures to waterproofing chemicals. The prices of polymers fluctuate considerably due to various factors. For instance, if the cost of the oil involved in the production is raised, then the cost of the polymer is likely to go up as well. The demand also plays an important role in the cost of polymers. Supply shortages, growing feedstock, energy costs, and logistics problems are the main price drivers for polymers. Fluctuations in raw material prices affect the profit margins of manufacturers. When the cost of raw materials rises sharply, manufacturers may not be able to absorb the cost increases entirely. As a result, they might raise the price of their construction chemicals and materials. These factors could limit the construction chemicals and materials market growth.

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

The construction chemicals and materials market is segmented based on product type and end-use industry. Based on product type, the market is segmented into pipes (steel, composites, polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, and others), concrete (superplasticizers, accelerators, retarders, and others), road construction materials (asphalt and modified asphalt, crack and joint sealants, and others), cables (polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, silicone, and others), membranes (bitumen, ethylene propylene diene monomer, polyvinyl chloride, and others), and insulations (fiberglass, polystyrene, mineral wool, and others). On the basis of the end-use industry, the market is bifurcated into residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure. Based on product type, the pipes segment accounted for a significant share of the construction chemicals and materials market. Pipes are used for water and sewage, air conditioning, firefighting, and gas facilities at construction sites. Proper installation of these pipes ensures efficient and reliable water distribution, helping maintain the comfort and hygiene of the structure's occupants. Further, innovative pipe segments have emerged with manufacturing techniques and materials advancements. The adoption of PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) pipes has increased in plumbing due to their flexibility, ease of installation, and resistance to scale and corrosion. These factors are anticipated to bolster driving the pipes segment growth.
