Construction Additive Market: By Type, By End User, and Region

Construction Additive Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Type (Chemical, Mineral, and Fiber), By End User (Residential, Commercial, and Infrastructure), and Region

Construction Additive Market size was valued at US$ 332,891.7 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2024-2030. To improve the physical qualities of construction materials, chemicals, and minerals are added as construction additives. Cement, mortar, and other materials are typically strengthened and made more durable by adding construction additives. To make concrete stronger and more useful for building construction, chemicals known as additives are added to cement. Resource conservation is achieved by using construction additives that reduce the amount of water in the cement. Larger and stronger infrastructures are made possible by this product's modification, which offers resistance to adverse weather, external damage, and waterproofing traits.

The key factors fueling the market growth are infrastructure development, technological advancements, sustainability and eco-friendliness, improved construction efficiency, and regulatory support. For instance, The CICO Group offers a variety of additive solutions in multiple areas, such as grouting, industrial flooring, waterproofing, repair compounds, adhesives, sealants, and concrete admixture, among many others. However, the cost of additives, compatibility issues, regulatory challenges, and lack of awareness in understanding the benefits of construction additives are the limiting factors for the market growth. Furthermore, growth in emerging markets, green building initiatives, innovative products, and integration with smart technologies provide huge opportunities for the market. In addition, some of the key market trends for the market include smart additives, high-performance concrete, modular and prefabricated construction, recycling and circular economy, and enhanced aesthetics.  

Key Developments

  • In September 2022, Sika acquired Pont Rouge, Canada's Sable Marco Inc., a company that makes mortars and cement products, in order to investigate possible new commercial prospects in Eastern Canada.
  • In January 2022, ika's enlarged production plant in Tanzania and Ivory Coast, Africa, is now able to produce both concrete admixtures and mortars. Moreover, this plant leaves enough space for potential future expansion.
  • In December 2021, To steer the construction chemicals industry on a growth path, Lone Star purchased BASF's construction chemicals division. The sum acquired was €3.17 billion. The acquisition will assist the business in expanding into new areas and diversifying its portfolio.
