세계의 폴리머 콘크리트 시장 예측(-2030년): 유형별, 골재 유형별, 기능별, 용도별, 최종 사용자별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Polymer Concrete Market is accounted for $702.1 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $1,059.6 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period. Polymer concrete is a type of concrete where traditional cement is replaced or supplemented by polymers as a binder. The polymers, such as epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester resins, improve the material's properties, making it more durable, resistant to chemicals, and capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. Polymer concrete is often used in applications where high strength, rapid curing, and resistance to environmental factors like corrosion are crucial, such as in industrial flooring, bridge decks, and sewer systems. It provides enhanced performance over traditional concrete in specific demanding conditions.

According to Oxford Economics, Europe is estimated to account for nearly one-fourth of the global construction output during the period from 2020 to 2030, with huge demand for construction and growing consumption in various residential, commercial and industrial applications.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing infrastructure development

The market is witnessing significant growth due to increasing demand for durable, corrosion-resistant materials in infrastructure development. Its ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions and offer superior strength makes it ideal for use in roads, bridges, and wastewater systems. The rise in urbanization, construction activities, and the need for sustainable building solutions further boosts the demand for polymer concrete, making it a preferred choice for modern infrastructure projects.

Restraint:

Limited availability of skilled professionals

The limited availability of skilled professionals in the market hampers its growth. A shortage of experts in mixing, curing, and application techniques can lead to improper installation, affecting the material's performance and durability. This lack of expertise also increases the risk of project delays, reduced efficiency, and higher costs. As a result, the market faces challenges in meeting the rising demand for high-quality polymer concrete solutions.

Opportunity:

Rising demand for durable materials

The rising demand for durable materials is driving growth in the market. Known for its high strength, corrosion resistance, and longevity, polymer concrete is increasingly favored in construction projects where durability is critical. It is used in harsh environments, such as wastewater treatment facilities, bridges, and highways, where traditional materials may fail. As infrastructure needs evolve, polymer concrete provides a sustainable solution, ensuring extended lifespan and reduced maintenance costs.

Threat:

Raw material price fluctuations

Raw material price fluctuations negatively impact the market by increasing production costs and causing price instability. Volatile costs for resins, aggregates, and other components can lead to unpredictable pricing for end products, making it difficult for manufacturers to plan and budget effectively. This uncertainty can also affect profitability and delay projects, potentially reducing the market's overall growth and adoption of polymer concrete in construction and infrastructure applications.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the market by causing delays in manufacturing, supply chain interruptions, and reduced demand in construction projects. Lockdowns and labor shortages slowed production, while economic uncertainty led to postponed infrastructure developments. However, as construction activities gradually resumed, the demand for durable, low-maintenance materials like polymer concrete increased, offering potential for market recovery and growth in the post-pandemic period.

The epoxy polymer concrete segment is expected to be the largest market share during the forecast period

The epoxy polymer concrete segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period due to its exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to chemicals, moisture. It is widely used in applications like road repairs, industrial flooring, and wastewater treatment plants. The growing demand for high-performance materials in infrastructure projects drives its adoption, as epoxy polymer concrete offers long-lasting solutions, reduced maintenance costs, and improved safety in harsh environments.

The roads and highways segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the roads and highways segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate due to the material's durability and resistance to wear, chemicals, and environmental stress. Polymer concrete is used for paving, repair, and maintenance of roads, offering enhanced longevity and reduced maintenance costs compared to traditional materials. Its ability to withstand harsh conditions, including freeze-thaw cycles and heavy traffic loads, makes it ideal for infrastructure projects focused on sustainable, long-lasting road systems..

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share driven by increasing demand for durable and low-maintenance materials. The region's focus on sustainable development, coupled with rising urbanization, is propelling the adoption of polymer concrete for roads, bridges, and industrial flooring. Additionally, advancements in polymer technologies and rising awareness of corrosion-resistant materials further fuel market expansion in North America, particularly in the U.S. and Canada.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR. The rapid industrialization and urbanization in the Asia Pacific region are contributing to the increased adoption of polymer concrete in various construction applications. Additionally, Polymer concrete's resistance to harsh weather conditions, corrosion, and chemical attacks makes it a preferred choice for infrastructure projects requiring longevity and low maintenance.
