Introduction
Cement and Mortar perform a key role in the construction industry. During the construction process, cement and mortar require a series of tests to ensure compliance and standards of construction. Multiple tests are required to satisfy the compliance requirements.
Some of these mandatory tests are compressive strength test, tensile strength test, fineness test, etc. It is also important to check consistency, setting time and flow, soundness and expansion of cement and others.
The cement and mortar testing equipment perform these tests to satisfy the standards and regulations. The most common types of cement and mortar testing equipment in the market are humidity cabinets, compression machines, blaine apparatus, tensile testing machines and others.
Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment Market Segmentation: Portable Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment Segment is Expected to Create Highest Incremental Opportunity During the Forecast Period
In this report, FMI has segmented the global cement and mortar testing equipment market on the basis of location, machine type, product type and region. By machine type, the cement and mortar testing equipment market is segmented into stationery and portable.
The portable cement and mortar testing equipment segment is expected to project high incremental opportunity in the cement and mortar testing equipment market as these equipment are easy to transport as well as light in weight.
Portable cement and mortar testing equipment also reduce the installation and maintenance cost significantly. The portable cement and mortar testing equipment segment is expected to capture the largest market share of the global cement and mortar testing equipment market and is expected to create incremental opportunity worth US$ 206.9 Mn between 2018 and 2027.
Increasing Research & Development Activities and Continuous Training & Development for Using Advanced Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment Are Two Important Factors that Will Drive the Growth of the Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment Market
Increasing spending on research and development is a major factor driving the growth of the cement and mortar testing equipment market. That apart, high spending on construction industry and rapid urbanization will create potential growth opportunities for the cement and mortar testing equipment market during the forecast period.
In addition, growing concerns regarding safety will also attract end users towards cement and mortar testing equipment and thus, the cement and mortar testing equipment market is expected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period.
Furthermore, technological advancements in cement and mortar testing equipment, such as automation, increased speed and high accuracy, will further fuel the growth of the cement and mortar testing equipment market during the forecast period.
However, lack of skilled personnel is one of the major factors hampering the growth of the cement and mortar testing equipment market currently and is expected to affect the market negatively during the forecast period as well.
However, vendors are continuously focused on training and development activities to overcome challenges. For instance, in September 2018, CONTROLS Group, a leading provider of cement and mortar testing equipment, conducted a training session on concrete compression machines in Italy for its customers.
Technological Advancements in Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment and a Booming Construction Industry are Creating Potential Growth Opportunities
Vendors are offering advanced and digital cement and mortar testing equipment with features such as digital data recording, fully automatic feature with enhanced accuracy of devices.
The rapid urbanization and booming construction industry in developing countries of Latin America and MEA are expected to fuel the cement and mortar testing equipment market during the forecast period.
The compression machine segment is expected to capture the largest market share of the global cement and mortar testing equipment market and is expected to create an incremental opportunity of US$ 92.5 Mn between 2018 and 2027.
The standards such as EN 13454-2, EN 459-2, EN 1015-11, and others are expected to drive the demand for compression machine during the forecast period of global cement and mortar testing equipment market.
Regional Overview: Asia Pacific Excluding Japan is Anticipated to be the Most Attractive Region in the Global Cement and Mortar Testing Equipment Market
On the basis of geography, the cement and mortar testing equipment market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Japan, APEJ (Asia Pacific Excluding Japan) and Middle East & Africa.
The cement and mortar testing equipment market in APEJ is expected to dominate the global cement and mortar testing equipment market owing to rapid urbanization and growing construction industry in various countries in the region.
Latin America and developing countries of MEA are also expected to capture a substantial market share in the global cement and mortar testing equipment market owing to growing GDP in these regions.
According to FMI analysis, long-term partnerships with distributors and new innovation strategies are likely to increase revenue, which is expected to enable the manufacturers of cement and mortar testingto reach new growth markets.
Some of the market participants in the global cement and mortar testing market report include Humboldt Mfg. Co., NL SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS SDN BHD, Controls S.p.A., ELE International, EIE Instruments, Accro-Tech Scientific Industries, Cement Test Equipment, Aimil Ltd., Qualitest International Inc., Matest and others. Companies, such as Matest and Controls, are expected to increase their market share by entering into long-term partnerships with distributors and expanding their product portfolio with advanced technology products.
