Brazil Prefabricated Construction Industry Business and Investment Opportunities Databook – 100+ KPIs, Market Size & Forecast by End Markets, Precast Products, and Precast Materials - Q2 2023 Update

According to ConsTrack360's, prefabricated construction industry in Brazil is expected to grow by 6.9% to reach BRL 32,964 million in 2023.

The medium to long-term growth story in Brazil remains intact. The prefabricated construction industry in Brazil is expected to grow steadily over the next four quarters. The growth momentum is expected to continue over the forecast period, recording a CAGR of 6.1% during 2023-2027. The prefabricated construction output in the country is expected to reach BRL 41,704.9 million by 2027.

The prefabricated construction industry is still in its nascent stages of development. In 2023, the rising construction material prices along with the surging inflation will keep assisting the market growth. Furthermore, the demand for affordable housing will keep supporting prefabricated construction activities in the Latin American region over the next three to four years.

With a strong growth potential of the Brazilian prefabricated construction market, global players are also seeking to capitalize on the market growth, and are therefore, entering into strategic collaboration with domestic firms. From the short to medium-term perspective, the demand for data centers is also projected to drive the uptake of prefabricated construction activities in Brazil.

Firms are using prefabricated panels to build new school facilities in Brazil

With the shift towards sustainable construction expected to grow significantly over the next three to four years in Brazil, more and more construction sites are expected to involve the use of prefabricated modules. From residential to commercial, prefabricated modules are expected to gain growing traction.

In 2022, Gusmão Otero Arquitetos Associados (GOAA), the Brazilian studio, built a school campus using prefabricated panels. The campus, which will serve students from elementary schools through high schools, includes four main buildings spreading across 9,300 square meters. The structure involves the use of hybrid construction practices. For instance, for all the buildings there are cast-in place concrete beams and pillars that support prefabricated floor slabs.

From the short to medium-term perspective, ConsTrack360 expects firms to undertake more such innovative, hybrid construction projects in Brazil. This will keep supporting the growth of the prefabricated construction industry in the Latin American market over the next three to four years.

Data centers firms are adopting prefabricated modules to launch new facilities in Brazil

Amid the growing digitalization, the demand for data centers has increased substantially over the last few years, and the trend is projected to further continue, as more and more small businesses build their presence online and consumers flock to online sales channels in Brazil. To capitalize on the growing demand for data centers, firms are announcing new projects in the Latin American region. With the aim to increase their speed to market, in terms of launching new facilities, these players are adopting prefabricated construction modules.

Scala Data Centers, for instance, has turned to module prefab offering to launch new facilities in Brazil. In September 2022, the firm announced that the first two prefab facilities will be located at Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre. These two facilities will be operational in Q2 2023. The modular structure used by Scala Data Centers are manufactured by Modular Data Centers in Brazil.

With Scala Data Centers looking to expand its presence in the Brazilian market, ConsTrack360 expects the firm to announce more such prefabricated data center facilities from the short to medium-term perspective. This will keep supporting the growth of the prefabricated construction market in Brazil.

Global firms are forging strategic alliances to capitalize on the pre-built construction market

With a high-growth long-term outlook for the Brazilian prefabricated construction, global firms are seeking to capitalize on the growth potential. Consequently, firms are forging strategic alliances with domestic players to enter the Brazilian market.

In December 2022, ArcelorMittal, through its Brazilian arm, entered into a strategic collaboration with Modularis, the domestic firm which builds steel-based modules to serve the civil construction industry. Notably, the prefabricated modules built by Modularis are used for commercial as well as residential construction projects. With the December 2022 partnership, ArcelorMittal now holds 33% stake in Modularis.

From the short to medium-term perspective, ConsTrack360 expects more such strategic collaborations in the Brazilian prefabricated construction market, as global players continue to seek value in the Latin American region.
