Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

Construction aggregates, also known as aggregates, are a broad category of medium to coarse-grained (particulate) materials used in the construction industry. Sand, crushed stone, slag, gravel, and other aggregates are some of the most common types of construction aggregates. Construction aggregates are among the most mined minerals on the planet and are a key component of composite materials such as asphalt concrete and concrete. The use of construction aggregates in composite materials reinforces the structure's overall strength. The global construction aggregates market is part of the larger global construction materials market. Manufacturers of sand, clay, gypsum, lime, aggregates, cement, concrete, and bricks compete in the global construction materials market.

Construction Aggregates Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Growing manufacturing activities

The growing number of manufacturing processes and rising innovation in construction technologies are driving the global construction aggregates market forward. The use of high-quality construction aggregates will improve the overall manufacturing process and allow it to last longer. This increases the overall market demand for construction aggregates.

• Innovations in aggregate production technologies to increase manufacturing process efficiency and productivity

Furthermore, innovations in aggregate production technologies to increase manufacturing process efficiency and productivity with high quality products are expected to drive global construction aggregates market growth during the forecast period. For instance, Haver & Boecker's Hydro-Clean washing unit removes toxic materials from aggregates while reducing water consumption by up to 75% when compared to traditional wooden washers. Furthermore, the implementation of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is rapidly accompanying the construction sector's digital transformation. BIM helps with time management, cost planning, and sustainability for raw material use, waste reduction, and overall project performance improvement. These elements are expected to drive market growth.

Opportunities

Population migration from rural to urban areas has compelled governments around the world to provide incentives for residential construction. For instance, the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna - Housing for All, an Indian government scheme, grants home loans to citizens for the construction of required residential spaces. Similarly, the USDA provides assistance to rural citizens through homeownership, repair, and renovation programmes. The department also provides financing to elderly, disabled, and low-income residents and assistance with rent payments. The USDA collaborates with private and public organisations to provide financial aid to rural and multi-family housing complex construction and repair.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Initial and Overall Costs

Construction aggregates' high transportation costs are expected to limit market growth. Because construction sites are far from mining sites, transportation costs account for roughly half of the total administrative cost incurred on construction aggregates. As a result, high aggregate transportation costs are expected to limit growth in the construction aggregates market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact on Construction Aggregates Market

The outbreak of coronavirus had a negative impact on the construction aggregates market. Furthermore, the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has slowed the construction industry's growth in recent months, causing delays that can be attributed to several disrupted demand and supply chains. Most construction projects have been temporarily halted in recent months to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The aforementioned factors have significantly impacted the demand for construction aggregates in recent months. Construction aggregate market producers and manufacturers, as well as the overall construction industry, are expected to face a number of challenges, as most construction projects are likely to be left incomplete or delayed due to supply chain disruptions, cash flow constraints, workforce unavailability, and production shutdown.

Expected Impact of Economic Slowdown on the Pricing and Availability of Products

When economic activity slows, industries begin to suffer. The forecasted effects of the economic downturn on the pricing and accessibility of the products are taken into account in the market insight reports and intelligence services provided by DBMR. With this, our clients can typically keep one step ahead of their competitors, project their sales and revenue, and estimate their profit and loss expenditures.

Recent Development

• Special economic zones (SEZs) are likely to have been established as a market component to promote industrialization and economic growth through sustainable development. According to information circulated by the Ministry of Commerce, SEZs can benefit from tax breaks, simplified procedures, flexible regulations and restrictions, exemption from customs and duties to promote export of goods, foreign investment, followed by others such as employment opportunities, and more effectively develop infrastructure facilities. The implementation of such government policies has resulted in a significant increase in the number of SEZs, which in turn has fuelled the growth of the global market.
• The infrastructure segment of the construction aggregate segment held the largest market share and is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the global market for the period ending in 2030. The construction industry in emerging economies such as China and India has seen an increase in investment as a result of numerous government initiatives to develop better infrastructure such as rail, road, dams, and irrigation canals. For instance, in countries such as India, the government has taken steps to establish Special Economic Zones (SEZs), which aid in the promotion of industrialization and economic growth. The Indian Ministry of Commerce has also reduced the number of regulations and taxes in order to increase FDI and develop the country's infrastructure.
