GROWTH DRIVERS AND CHALLENGES

The strong growth of construction industry in developing countries has aided the construction chemicals market growth. The construction chemicals enhance the workability, performance, functionality, chemical resistance, and durability of the construction materials. In India, the growth in the construction activities is driven by continuing industrialization, urbanization, increasing population, growth in middle-class income, and the increase in infrastructural developments. According to the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), foreign direct investments (FDIs) in the construction development sector and construction (infrastructure) activities stood at US$ 26.20 billion and US$ 27.92 billion, respectively, between April 2000-March 2022. The construction industry is a best prospect industry sector for Mexico. Mexican construction industry is growing due to the economic growth and public investment in infrastructure projects. In 2019 and 2020, the country’s President López Obrador, along with private sector representatives, announced multiple projects as part of the nation’s infrastructure plan. Mexico is also moving rapidly towards green and environmentally friendly construction activities. The construction industry from the country has embraced the green building movement. Further, in Brazil, the construction sector is a key contributor to gross domestic product (GDP) growth. The construction market in Brazil offers key opportunities for the foreign multinational companies expanding into Latin America. Hence, the strong growth of the construction industry in these developing countries is mainly driving the construction chemicals market growth. The adoption of innovative product like ready-mix concrete is also the major factor in positively impacting the construction chemicals market size. Ready-mix concrete is a concrete that is batched for delivery from a central plant instead of being mixed on the job site. It is ideal for many jobs. Ready-mix concrete is particularly beneficial when small quantities of concrete or intermittent placing of concrete are required. Ready-mix concrete helps save on capital investments by not having to invest in plants and machinery for cement. All these benefits contribute to the increasing use of ready-mix concrete in various construction activities. Therefore, the development and adoption of innovative products such as ready-mix-concrete is predicted to boost the construction chemicals market size during the forecast period. However, fluctuations in the prices of raw materials can create an adverse impact on the market growth. Different polymers are used for the manufacturing of construction chemicals. The prices fluctuate 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. Hence, the fluctuating cost of raw materials and energy is expected to hamper the construction chemicals market growth.

IMPACT OF COVID/IMPACT OF GEOPOLITICAL SCENARIO/IMPACT OF RECESSION

Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business shutdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected economies and industries in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC), South & Central America, and the Middle East & Africa (MEA). The crisis disturbed global supply chains, manufacturing activities, delivery schedules, and essential and nonessential product sales. Various companies announced possible delays in product deliveries and a slump in future sales of their products in 2020. Further, the international travel bans imposed by various governments in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America forced several companies to discontinue their collaboration and partnership plans. All these factors hampered the chemicals & materials industry in 2020 and early 2021, thereby restraining the growth of construction industry.

Before the COVID-19 outbreak, the construction chemicals market was mainly driven by the rising demand from construction industry. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a delay in most ongoing construction projects and reduced the productivity of the construction industry. Due to the reduced construction activities worldwide, the demand for construction chemicals in different residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructural application has reduced. However, the economies revived their operations. The previously postponed construction projects were resumed, further providing an opportunity for the construction chemicals market players to regain normalcy.
