The rise in cost-effectiveness in the construction industry is one of the major 3D concrete printing market drivers. The cost of printing construction elements using 3D concrete printing is much lower than the traditional construction method. With the lower construction cost, the transportation and storage costs are also low. Moreover, the foundation work is significantly lower in 3D concrete printing compared with conventionally built homes. The roughing stage in 3D concrete printing can be skipped and directly arrived at the final finishing point, whcih can reduce a significant amount of cost. Also, the cost of logistics is less in 3D concrete printing, as there is no need for extra tools and materials. Furthermore, the technology enables the limited consumption of general materials in construction where the cost of building frame construction is relatively less. The 3D concrete printing market report predicts the market to grow at a CAGR of more than 12% by 2021.
The rise in green construction in Asia is one of the latest 3D concrete printing market trends. The advantages of 3D concrete printing have paved the way for creating customized structures by using fewer, transportation, and recyclable materials. The ink mix used for construction is made from recycled rubber, fiberglass, cement, steel, and binder. Such features of 3D concrete printing have made it an eco-friendly process that facilitates the utilization of green materials and results in lower waste production.
The 3D concrete printing market is a concentrated with the presence of few players exploring growth opportunities in the market.
