Report Description<br />
Cement is the most common binding material used in construction activities. Cement is mixed with crushed<br />
rocks, s<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> water in specific proportion to createconcrete. <strong>Admixtures</strong> are chemicals that are added to<br />
concrete at the initial mixing stage to enhances or modify the working properties of the mix. <strong>Concrete</strong><br />
admixtures are primarily used to enhance the compressive strength, workability <strong>and</strong> durability parameter of<br />
the concrete <strong>and</strong> to reduce the water content in it. <strong>Admixtures</strong> are generally classified according to<br />
application as Plasticizers (water reducing agents), super plasticizers (high range water reducers), air<br />
entrainers, accelerators <strong>and</strong> retarders. Also, three types of admixtures very common in the market such as<br />
Lingo-based, Sulfonated Naphthalene Formaldehyde (SNF) <strong>and</strong> Sulfonated Melamine Formaldehyde (SMF)<br />
based <strong>and</strong> PCE (Polycarboxylate Ether) based admixtures.Optimum use of admixtures depends on several<br />
factors including the type <strong>and</strong> amount of cement used, working temperature of concrete <strong>and</strong> air <strong>and</strong> water<br />
content.<br />
For developers, engineers, contractors, builders, architects <strong>and</strong> other end-users, concrete admixtures offer<br />
innumerable benefits such as corrosion resistance, reduced permeability <strong>and</strong> improved resistance to<br />
chemical attack, effective placement of concrete in extreme weather conditions <strong>and</strong> underwater placement<br />
of concrete.<br />

The dem<strong>and</strong> for concrete admixtures is directly related tocement consumption trends. Some of the drivers<br />
ofthe concrete admixtures market are improving quality of construction in developing economies, increasing<br />
dem<strong>and</strong> for high rise buildings, roads, bridges, tunnels <strong>and</strong> dams. Reduction in water usage <strong>and</strong> construction<br />
time is the major concerns of contractors <strong>and</strong> manufacturers,which could be rightly addressed by making<br />
effective use of concrete admixtures.
Report Description<br />
Some of the inhibitors inthe concrete admixtures market are increasing prices of raw materials, unskilled<br />
labour <strong>and</strong> lack of awareness about admixtures in the unorganized sector of construction developers.<br />
Growing residential requirements in the Middle East <strong>and</strong> Africa, <strong>and</strong>the urbanization trend in the Asia-Pacific<br />
region indicates high market opportunities for concrete admixture manufacturers. Repair <strong>and</strong> maintenance<br />
applications also providepotential opportunities, supported by increase in renovation <strong>and</strong> repair activities.<br />
Gradual aging of the housing stock in regions like Europe <strong>and</strong> North America offers major opportunities for<br />
concrete admixtures market.<br />
In developing countries of Asia Pacific, improving quality of civil structures is offering a double-digit growth<br />
rate for concrete admixture consumption. The Asia Pacific region is the largestconsumerof concrete<br />
admixtures, <strong>and</strong> is expected to hold market share ofover two-thirds of the total global admixtures market.<br />
Various factors such as foreign direct investment (FDI) in developing markets such as India <strong>and</strong> China is<br />
providing new market opportunities inthe concrete admixtures market.<br />

Recent developments in concrete admixture technology have led to the development of mid-range water<br />
reducers. Another trend which has been increasingly adopted by major players in themarket is the use of<br />
new concrete mixtures that contain up to 85% recycled material. Another innovative concrete admixture<br />
product includes an additive called Elemix, which consists of exp<strong>and</strong>ed polystyrene beads. This product<br />
allows making of a lighterweight concrete with the same structural strength, while enhancing its thermal<br />
properties, retarding properties <strong>and</strong> cracking resistance.
Report Description<br />
The major players in the concrete admixtures market are The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), BASF SE<br />
(Germany), Sika AG (Switzerl<strong>and</strong>), W.R. Grace Co. (U.S.), Ashl<strong>and</strong>, Inc. (U.S.), RPM International, Inc. (U.S.),<br />
Fosroc International (U.K.), Cico Technologies (India), Pidilite Industries (India), CEMEX S.A.B de C.V. (Mexico),<br />
Chryso SAS (France) <strong>and</strong> MAPEI South Africa (PTY) Ltd.<br />
A number of changes in the construction industry have added impetus formanufacturers <strong>and</strong> contractors to<br />
follow sustainability <strong>and</strong> green building codes.<strong>Concrete</strong> admixtures have evolved overthe past few decades<br />
<strong>and</strong> with growth in the construction industryglobally <strong>and</strong> development of new construction techniques,<br />
concrete building systems are becoming more durable <strong>and</strong> sustainable by re by using environmental friendly<br />
techniques.<br />
