The concrete admixtures are widely preferred in construction industry as these offer enhanced properties such as improved compressive or flexural strength; decreased permeability; reduction in shrinkage; corrosion resistance; increased slump and workability; retard or accelerate initial setting time; increased cement efficiency as compared to conventional concrete used in the construction. The increasing construction activities in Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions are one of the main drivers for its increasing consumption globally. The global concrete admixtures consumption is expected to grow at an estimated CAGR of 6.88% from 2012 to 2017.
The market dynamics of concrete admixtures industry are studied for market insights such as drivers, restraints, and opportunities. The main drivers of automotive plastics utilization are its high demand in developing countries, improved quality and economics of construction, and steadily growing urbanization trend. The factors restraining the market could be established infrastructures in developed countries and unstable economic cycle. The opportunities are cited in utilization of Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) in developing countries.
