Insulated Concrete Form: Worldwide Market Analysis & Forecast 2018-2023 - Increasing Demand for Energy-Efficient Green Buildings is Driving the $1.5Bn Projected Market
DUBLIN, Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
The "Insulated Concrete Form Market by Type (Flat, Grid (Screen, and Waffle), and Post & Lintel Systems), Material (Expanded polystyrene Foam, Polyurethane Foam), End-Use Industry (Residential, and Non-residential), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The insulated concrete form market is estimated to be USD 1.11 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 1.49 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 5.95% from 2018 to 2023.
The growth of the insulated concrete form market can be attributed to rapid urbanization, increase in demand for energy-efficient green buildings, favorable government regulations, and rise in the number of construction activities worldwide.
The construction industry witnessed a significant change with the introduction of insulated concrete form, as it provides flexibility to designers to modify and enhance the physical strength of the concrete features associated with insulated concrete form, such as fire & sound resistance, high insulation values, and impact resistance, are driving the demand for insulated concrete form.
Factors such weak economic conditions in several countries as the aftermath of the financial recession of 2008-2012 and high cost of raw materials are restricting the growth of the market.
The insulated concrete form market has been segmented on the basis of type, material, end-use industry, and region. The residential segment is projected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry segment of the insulated concrete form market during the forecast period. The gradual shift of building contractors and consumers toward cost-efficient, eco-friendly, and energy-efficient building techniques in emerging countries have created growth opportunities for the insulated concrete form market.
Based on material, the expanded polystyrene foam segment is projected to lead the insulated concrete form market from 2018 to 2023. The polyurethane foam segment of the insulated concrete form market is projected to grow at the second-highest CAGR during the forecast period.
In terms of value, the expanded polystyrene foam material segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to varied consumer preferences such as structural safety, comfort, energy efficiency, durability, and low maintenance costs. Properties of expanded polystyrene foam include lightweight, moisture resistance, durability, acoustic absorption, and low thermal conductivity. This material is increasingly used in insulated concrete form due to its closed cell structure that causes minimal water absorption and low vapor permanence. Expanded polystyrene foam is used as a construction material to provide insulation for walls, foundation, and roofs.
The North American region is the largest consumer of insulated concrete form products. The US, Canada, and Germany are among the major markets for insulated concrete form. The insulated concrete form market in North America is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Increasing number of residential activities in the US, Canada, and Mexico is projected to drive the growth of the North America insulated concrete form market. Additionally, government investments in the construction sector provide potential growth opportunities for the insulated concrete form market in this region.
The insulated concrete form market is led by players that include NUDURA Corporation (Canada), Quad-Lock Building Systems (Canada), AMVIC (Canada), Fox Blocks (US), BASF (Germany), LOGIX Insulated Concrete Forms (UK), ConForm Global (US), KORE (Ireland), Polycrete International (Canada), LiteForm (US), Sunbloc (UK), Rastra (US), SuperForm Products (Denmark), Durisol (Australia), and Beco Products (UK). Fox Blocks adopted the strategy of partnerships to cater to the rising demand for insulated concrete form worldwide.
