Growing urbanization and industrialization is the key factor driving the global precast concrete market growth. Rapid industrialization and urbanization in developing countries are greatly accelerating the demand for precast concrete products. Global economic growth, rising disposable incomes, and changing lifestyles are driving rapid urbanization. Rapid industrialization and urbanization are increasing the demand for roads, housing, water storage structures, tunnels, and bridges. The development of new roads and increased investment in transportation and highway infrastructure projects, as well as smart cities, are driving the growth of the market.
China, India, Italy, Russia, Germany, and the United States have invested heavily in road/highway infrastructure projects. Demand for precast concrete is likely to be in developing countries that lack adequate road and transportation networks and infrastructure. These countries are investing heavily in their transport networks to boost their economic and industrial growth. However, regular investments in technological advancements in infrastructure projects in developed countries are also boosting the growth of the precast construction market during the forecast period.
Increasing investments in the construction industry will fuel the global precast concrete market growth. Construction activity is on the rise around the world due to growing interest in developing infrastructure that will drive economic growth and improve people's living standards. Developed countries like the US are looking to improve their existing infrastructure. The construction industry in developing countries such as China and India is also growing as the populations of these countries move into the middle-income bracket. The global construction industry is growing due to the increasing number of construction projects across the world.
Global investment in roads and highways continues to grow due to rising safety standards and an increase in accidents around the world. As the number of passenger and commercial vehicles in the world continues to grow, congestion on city roads and highways will increase in the coming years. This has forced the government to modernize and expand existing highways. Apart from that, new roads and highways are also being built to minimize travel times between major cities. Such initiatives will increase the demand for ready-mixed concrete and subsequently support the growth of the precast construction market during the forecast period.
A lack of awareness regarding precast concrete can majorly impede the growth of the market. End users often exhibit a lack of awareness of precast concrete. This can lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities to use this versatile building material. Precast concrete is a type of building material poured into reusable forms, allowed to harden, and transported to a construction site for installation. One of the main reasons is the persistent belief that only traditional building materials such as brick, stone, and wood are suitable for building construction. This misconception often stems from resistance to change and a lack of understanding of the many benefits of precast concrete, such as durability, economy, safety, and design flexibility. End users with this belief may be unaware of the significant advances in precast concrete technology in recent years, such as the development of high-performance concrete that can withstand harsh weather conditions and extreme temperatures.
Another factor is the lack of exposure to the material. This may be due to a lack of education in building materials and techniques, as well as a lack of access to information on precast concrete suppliers and manufacturers. End users unfamiliar with precast concrete may be put off by the perceived complexity and expense of the manufacturing and installation process and may prefer a more familiar building material. Therefore, such factors may impede the growth of the precast construction market during the forecast period.
The non-residential segment will contribute a major share of the market, as it saves time and reduces costs. The non-residential segment showed a gradual increase in market share with USD 62.81 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. The non-residential segment includes commercial buildings, offices, hospitals, schools, warehouses, and industrial facilities. This segment represents a large and diverse precast concrete market, offering manufacturers and suppliers an opportunity to serve a wide range of customers with diverse needs and preferences. Precast concrete elements are manufactured externally under controlled conditions to ensure consistent quality and minimize on-site construction time.
