Underwater Concrete Market by Raw Material (Admixtures, Aggregates, Cement), Laying Technology (Bucket Placing, Pneumatic Valves, Pump Method), Application - Global Forecast 2024-2030


The Underwater Concrete Market size was estimated at USD 126.69 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 137.81 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 9.46% to reach USD 238.67 billion by 2030.

Global Underwater Concrete Market

Underwater concrete is a special high-performance concrete used to construct bridges, harbors, foundations in soil with high water levels, and almost all off- and onshore structures. Adopting the underwater concrete process may save engineers from using the conventional method of building by isolating the water, resulting in less disruption to plant operations and significant savings. Underwater concrete is highly flowable concrete that may spread into place under its weight and achieve adequate compaction in the absence of vibration without exhibiting segregation. The rising marine constriction, dams & bridge projects, favorable government initiatives for underwater construction, and the emerging use of hydropower have expanded the market scope. However, fluctuating costs of raw materials and inappropriate placement may hinder market development. Nevertheless, the introduction of anti-washout underwater concrete admixtures and the rising production of eco-friendly underwater concrete create enormous prospects for market growth in the forecast period.

Regional Insights

The American underwater concrete market is highly developing owing to increased hydropower generation, rising aquatic construction activities, and rapid inclination toward shore protection in the region. According to U.S. Department of Energy, Hydropower currently accounts for 28.7% of total U.S. clean electricity generation and about 6.2% of entire U.S. electricity generation, expanding market scope. Additionally, the EMEA underwater concrete market is significantly evolving based on advanced laying technology and the introduction of eco-friendly admixtures. Moreover, the European Commission has published plans to accelerate its transition to clean energy, reducing reliance on Russian gas imports and helping meet climate targets. This transition expands their dependency on renewable energy, such as hydropower generation, which is further expected to improve the demand for underwater concrete. The Asia-Pacific region showcases significant growth prospects shortly owing to emerging underwater construction activities and favorable government initiatives for hydropower generation.
