<strong>Self</strong>-<strong>Compacting</strong> <strong>Concrete</strong> <strong>Market</strong> <strong>2024</strong> Business<br />

Development <strong>Analysis</strong>: Global <strong>Market</strong> Insights Inc.<br />

<strong>Self</strong>-<strong>Compacting</strong> <strong>Concrete</strong> <strong>Market</strong> size has seen a substantial growth owing <strong>to</strong> up surge in construction<br />

industry coupled with engineering advantages <strong>and</strong> aesthetics will drive the industry growth. The key<br />

fac<strong>to</strong>rs driving the industry are the improved air quality, significant reduction in MRO costs <strong>and</strong> nonrequirement<br />

of vibration process in laying SCC along with eco-friendly process which is less harmful <strong>to</strong><br />

the environment. Its improved durability <strong>and</strong> noise free construction features will be major indica<strong>to</strong>rs<br />

<strong>to</strong> fuel the self-compacting concrete market. Rapidly growing repairing activities of old buildings <strong>and</strong><br />

quickly exp<strong>and</strong>ing in construction industries in both developed <strong>and</strong> developing economies will foster<br />

the market dem<strong>and</strong>.<br />

<strong>Self</strong>-compacting concrete (SCC) can flow under its own weight <strong>and</strong> fills the form work without applying<br />

any vibrating machines <strong>and</strong> huge work force which reduces the <strong>to</strong>tal cost. Some of the advantages in<br />

using SCC in building & construction sec<strong>to</strong>r are improved quality & strength, reduced vibration, faster<br />

development <strong>and</strong> low clamor level will further enhance the product dem<strong>and</strong>. However, limited usage<br />

of the product in infrastructure activities <strong>and</strong> high cost associated with using SCC may restrain the selfcompacting<br />

concrete market over the forecasted years.<br />

SCC is manufactured in the same way as old traditional concrete without adding viscosity modifying<br />

admixtures <strong>and</strong> super-plasticizers. It is a high flow construction <strong>and</strong> high-performance material.<br />

Moreover, rising usage of SCC in precast <strong>and</strong> repairing activities will impel the self-compacting<br />

concrete market.<br />

Raw materials required for manufacturing self-compacting concrete are fine & coarse<br />

aggregates, fibres, fly ash, admixtures, water <strong>and</strong> cement. The product is available in distinct<br />

designs which include powder type, viscosity agent <strong>and</strong> combination type. Amongst,<br />

combination type is the fastest growing design segment owing <strong>to</strong> property of effectively<br />

balancing the moisture fluctuations during solid blocks production process.<br />

<strong>Self</strong>-compacting concrete is used for marking concrete frames, metal decking, columns <strong>and</strong><br />

drilled shafts. Among these, concrete frames application holds the largest market share <strong>and</strong> is<br />

anticipated <strong>to</strong> witness the same trend due <strong>to</strong> upsurge in dem<strong>and</strong> of specific complex design<br />

desired by the cus<strong>to</strong>mers in construction industry.<br />

End-use industry for self-compacting concrete market include building & construction, oil &<br />

gas <strong>and</strong> infrastructure. Construction industry holds the fastest growing application segment<br />

owing <strong>to</strong> rise in building activities in both developed <strong>and</strong> developing countries.<br />

North America self-compacting concrete market is predicted <strong>to</strong> grow at moderate rate as the<br />

region suffered with the crisis in residential <strong>and</strong> commercial sec<strong>to</strong>r.<br />

Europe, led by Germany is the fastest growing region for self-compacting concrete market<br />

owing <strong>to</strong> increased construction activities. The region is expected <strong>to</strong> witness a high dem<strong>and</strong><br />

due <strong>to</strong> rising precast activities along with gradually recovering housing <strong>and</strong> construction sec<strong>to</strong>r.<br />

Asia Pacific self-compacting concrete market is expected <strong>to</strong> witness significant growth<br />

urbanizing with growing transportation & power industry in India <strong>and</strong> escalating investment in<br />

building industry in China will flourish the market dem<strong>and</strong>.<br />

The Middle East <strong>and</strong> Africa region will be the fastest growing self-compacting concrete market<br />

over the forecasted years. Rapidly rising oil & gas <strong>and</strong> construction industry in this region will<br />

augment the SCC market. Growing industrialization is the key reason <strong>to</strong> propel the product<br />

market.<br />

Global self-compacting concrete market is moderately consolidated in nature. Several wellknown<br />

participants operating in the field are Unibe<strong>to</strong>n Ready Mix, Ultratech Cement, Tarmac,<br />

Sika Group, Lafarge, Cemex <strong>and</strong> BASF SE.<br />

Numerous market leaders are trying <strong>to</strong> develop new product & technology <strong>and</strong> mergers &<br />

acquisitions strategies <strong>to</strong> exp<strong>and</strong> their product portfolio <strong>and</strong> <strong>to</strong> sustain in the market. In 2016,<br />

Sika Group introduced an innovative technology named. ‘Sika Viscocrete’ for SCC. Using the<br />

technology enables high strength, easy finishing, significant water reductions, excellent SCC<br />

properties <strong>and</strong> consistent slump & flow in SCC.<br />
