Construction chemicals are a niche specialty segment of the chemical industry. They are used in both residential and non-residential construction activities to impart strength and durability, and to speed up the pace of the construction work. Construction chemicals also help minimise the quantity of cement and water used in the construction process.The demand for construction chemicals in any country is dependent on a number of factors, prime among them being the spending on infrastructure, real estate growth, and urbanisation trends.
India is one the fastest growing economies in the world. The Indian economy has witnessed phenomenal growth in the last decade or so, with infrastructure development receiving a major boost. These developments have provided an impetus to the country’s construction sector, and it has shown a Y-o-Y growth of over 10%.
Government Initiatives have Provided a Boost to the Indian Construction Chemicals Market
Over the years, there has been a renewed focus on infrastructural development in India. Successive governments have played an active role in providing a boost to the country’s infrastructural sector through high-investment programmes, such as Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojna (PMGSY) and National Highways Development Programme. The private sector companies have also played a major role in the growth of India’s residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. These factors have fuelled the growth in the Indian construction sector, which in turn, has provided an impetus to the construction chemicals market in the country.
The government’s effort to promote green buildings has also contributed to the increasing demand for construction chemicals. Moreover, the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) mandate on using construction chemicals under stipulated guidelines for projected funded by it has augured well for the prospects of the Indian construction chemicals market.
