Key Market Trends

Residential Construction Sector to Dominate the Market

- Growth in population, migration from hometowns to service sector clusters, and the growing trend of the nuclear family are some of the factors which have been driving the residential construction across the globe. Besides, decreasing land to population ratio and the growing trend of constructing high-rise residential buildings and townships have been driving the application of concrete admixtures in the residential construction segment across the globe.

- In the recent past, the highest growth rate, regarding residential construction was expected to be registered in the Asia-Pacific region, owing to the expanding housing construction market in China and India. Asia-Pacific has the largest low-cost housing construction segment, led by China, India, and various Southeast Asian countries. However, with most of the Asia-Pacific countries being severely affected by COVID-19 on a large scale the growth is expected to notably slower down in the short run.

- Globally, there has been a significant undersupply to meet the demand for housing. This presented a major opportunity for the investors and developers to embrace the alternative methods of construction and new partnerships, in order to bring forward development. For instance:

Besides that, Puravankara Ltd. planned investment of about INR 850 crore (USD 121.6 million) for the development of three ultra-luxury residential projects in Chennai, Bengaluru, and Mumbai, over the next four years. The government is also pushing huge projects in the next few years. The government’s ‘Housing for All’ initiative aims to build more than 20 million affordable homes for the urban poor by 2022. This will provide a significant boost to residential construction.

- In Southeast Asia, Indonesia is one of the largest and fastest-growing residential construction markets. Moreover, the Indonesian government has started a program to build about one million housing units across Indonesia, for which the government has allocated about USD 1 billion in the budget.

- In Canada, various government projects, including the Affordable Housing Initiative (AHI), New Building Canada Plan (NBCP), and Made in Canada, have been supporting the expansion of the sector.
