Our researchers studied the data for years, with 2023 as the base year and 2024 as the estimated year, and presented the key drivers, trends, and challenges for the market.
The rise in construction and building activities is the primary growth initiator for the global green cement market. The demand for green cement is accelerating the growth of alternative fuels that are derived from waste materials such as solid recovered fuels, foundry sand, used oils, sewage sludge, animal meals, filter cakes, and fly ashes. The urgent need to cut down carbon emissions is encouraging the use of alternative fuels.
Moreover, the rise in the demand for green cement in construction activities is also attributed to its lower water consumption. Also, green cement provides high thermal insulation and efficient fire resistance, which enables structures built with green cement to withstand temperatures up to 2,400 degrees F. Hence, owing to the increasing demand for green cement, the market is expected to witness growth during the forecast period.
With the increasing adoption of Industry 4.0 and big data analytics, most cement and lime manufacturing plants are optimizing their internal management systems. To capture the production and marketing information of each plant in real-time and to foresee risks, manufacturers are setting up the TCC War Room System as a shared platform of internal information. To monitor the temperature status of the front, middle, and rear pullers of each rotatory kiln, a bearing alert system is applied, which automatically sends uneven force alerts seven days in advance, thereby allowing the workers to make early interventions to protect equipment
However, the system has already been set up in all TCC plants in China. In addition, the development of the kiln temperature big data analysis model to detect areas with abnormally high temperatures in real-time and alert the control room crew to temperature anomalies will also foster the growth of the global rotary kiln market during the forecast period.
Limestone is a basic building block in the construction industry as it is an important raw material from which aggregate, cement, lime, and building stones are manufactured. Limestone and dolomite are mined from open quarries or by underground mining, thereby establishing a direct link between the sluggish growth of the mining industry to the slow growth of the rotary kiln market. Mining companies have also cut down on capital investments in new mines.
Additionally, the performance of the mining industry is expected to continue to be low for the next few years. The growing pressure to use cleaner fuels and reduce carbon emissions is also challenging the growth of the coal industry. Though coal will remain an important, long-term fuel source for many economies, the growth of the coal industry will continue to be stunted. These factors represent a major risk to the demand for rotary kilns which in turn restrict market growth during the forecast period.
The cement segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. Notably, the robust expansion in cement production globally is the main factor driving the growth of the global rotary kiln market. The scenario in the market in focus is most effectively demonstrated by the major application of rotary kilns in cement manufacturing.

The cement segment was the largest and was valued at USD 357.95 million in 2018. The demand for cement has been spurred by the increase in the number of construction projects worldwide, infrastructural expansion, and rapid urbanization. Additionally, during cement production, the operation of rotary kilns using alternative fuels for combustion and advancements in clinker production efficiency have been spurred by the growing number of sustainability programs to minimize the impact of cement production on the environment. With advancements and sustainability initiatives fueling its growth, the dominance of cement production in the global rotary kiln market is positioned for continuous expansion as the construction industry expands globally and environmental concerns rise. This, in turn, will drive the growth of the cement segment of the market during the forecast period.
Based on product, the market has been segmented into cement kiln, metallurgy chemical kiln, and lime kiln. The cement kiln?segment will account for the largest share of this segment.?Cement is a gray-colored inorganic substance with high pressure-driven binding properties. It is a vital binding component in any construction activity and is used in the production of concrete along with materials such as bricks or stones. However, there will be an overall increase in demand for cement capacity from developing countries because of the increase in construction activities and government initiatives; the trend of increasing cement consumption is likely to continue with the rise in demand from the housing and infrastructure sectors. All these factors are expected to drive the rotary kiln market by cement kiln during the forecast period.

APAC is estimated to contribute 48% to the growth by 2028. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends, drivers, and challenges that are expected to shape the market during the forecast period. The rotary kiln market in APAC is expected to grow during the forecast period. Factors such as increasing demand for cement and lime, growing construction and mining activities, and an increasing number of cement plants in the region are expected to drive the rotary kiln market in the region. In 2022, China was amongst the leading producers and exporters of lime in the region. The rapid growth of several industries, such as construction and automotive, has resulted in high demand for ferrous and non-ferrous metals such as steel, aluminium, and copper in the country. The various applications of lime in ferrous and non-ferrous metal production and the growth in metal production in the country were the key drivers for the growth of the lime market in APAC.
Additionally, in India, to increase the revenue share of the mining industry, the Ministry of Mines has planned to restart operations in around 100 mines across the country during the forecast period. Also, the Government of India has allowed 100% FDI in the mining sector while fostering the exploration of metal and non-metal ores. This is expected to drive the growth of the mining industry, which, in turn, will increase the demand for rotary kilns in the region during the forecast period.
