The construction chemicals market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $48.96 billion in 2023 to $53.73 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to infrastructure development demands, the need for durable construction materials, the utilization of concrete admixtures, advancements in waterproofing solutions, a surge in repair and restoration projects, and progress in material science improving construction materials.

The construction chemicals market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $77.77 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. Anticipated growth in the upcoming period is expected due to the adoption of sustainable construction practices, the integration of energy-efficient building solutions, an increased focus on safety and resilience in construction, the pursuit of green building certifications, and the expansion of residential construction projects. Key trends projected for this period encompass innovation in self-healing materials, the development of adhesives and sealants for efficient construction practices, the utilization of corrosion inhibitors in infrastructure projects, advancements in flooring solutions, and the application of shotcrete and gunite technologies in construction processes.

The burgeoning demand within the construction sector significantly drives the expansion of the construction chemicals market. Construction encompasses a broad spectrum of activities involving the creation, modification, repair, renovation, enhancement, or dismantling of structures. Construction chemicals play a vital role in mitigating abrasion, enhancing bonding capabilities, and extending the lifespan of buildings. For example, as reported by the FMI Corporation, a U.S.-based management consulting firm, there is a projected 5% increase in engineering and construction investment in 2022 compared to 2021. Notably, key contributors to this growth include prominent nations such as China, India, and the USA. Consequently, the upsurge in construction activities is anticipated to serve as a significant catalyst propelling the growth trajectory of the construction chemicals market.

The escalation in catastrophic events is poised to drive the growth of the construction chemicals market in the foreseeable future. Catastrophic events encompass sudden, widespread, and severe incidents or disasters that cause substantial damage and disruptions to communities and ecosystems. The utilization of construction chemicals plays a crucial role in fortifying structures against such events, bolstering their durability and resilience, minimizing damage, and aiding in effective recovery and reconstruction efforts. For example, as per ReliefWeb, a U.S.-based humanitarian information portal, the recorded instances of catastrophic events in 2022 totaled 387, slightly surpassing the average of 370 from preceding years. Consequently, the mounting concerns surrounding catastrophic events serve as a significant driver propelling the demand for construction chemicals as they play a pivotal role in fortifying structures against such adversities.

Strategic partnerships are emerging as a prominent trend within the construction chemicals market, with major companies actively engaging in collaborations to fortify their market standing. An illustrative example of this trend unfolded in January 2021 when Nippon Paint, a leading paint manufacturer based in Japan, forged a partnership with Choksey Chemicals, an Indian company specializing in construction chemicals. This collaboration saw Choksey Chemicals taking on the manufacturing and supply responsibilities for waterproofing and sealant grades tailored for Nippon Paint's offerings in India. Another noteworthy instance occurred in May 2022 when Pidilite Industries Limited, an Indian adhesive manufacturer, entered into a partnership with GCP Applied Technologies, a U.S.-based provider of construction products. This strategic alliance empowered Pidilite to offer high-performance waterproofing solutions, marketed under the brand Dr.Fixit, designed specifically for challenging sites characterized by extreme temperature variations and high water tables. These partnerships underscore the industry's drive to leverage synergies and expertise, resulting in enhanced product offerings and market presence within the construction chemicals sector.

Major players in the construction chemicals market are actively pursuing the development of innovative products, including eco-friendly dispersions, in response to the rising demand for sustainable solutions and to gain a competitive advantage. Eco-friendly dispersions represent a sustainable alternative devoid of harmful components, tailored for diverse applications such as paints, aimed at reducing environmental impact. As an illustration, in July 2022, Synthos, a chemicals company based in Poland, introduced Synexil SAB 05, a novel eco-friendly dispersion tailored for the production of construction chemicals, particularly paints suitable for children's rooms and allergy-sensitive applications. This product offers impressive features including UV resistance, a low film formation temperature for solvent-free chemicals, and high scrub resistance. Compliant with stringent low emission standards, it is well-suited for white interior paint, ensuring minimal indoor air pollution. Notably, Synexil SAB 05 is free from harmful elements such as APEO, solvents, ammonia, and formaldehyde donors, aligning with Synthos' commitment to safety, sustainability, and responsible manufacturing practices.

In September 2022, Saint-Gobain, a renowned French manufacturer and distributor of materials and solutions, completed the acquisition of GCP Applied Technologies for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition represents a pivotal milestone for Saint-Gobain, positioning the company as a prominent global entity in the realm of construction chemicals. The move seamlessly aligns with Saint-Gobain's overarching strategy to solidify its position as a global leader in lightweight and sustainable construction solutions. Notably, GCP Applied Technologies, a U.S.-based company specializing in construction chemicals, now stands as a valuable addition to Saint-Gobain's portfolio, bolstering its capabilities and presence within the industry.
