The escalating demand for sustainable construction practices, rapid urbanization leading to increased construction activity, and the growing environmental awareness among the masses represent some of the key factors driving the market.

The Escalating Demand For Sustainable Construction Due To The Rising Cost Of Construction Materials And Labor is Augmenting the Market Growth

Construction and demolition waste management solutions are becoming more viable as environmentally conscious builders become more aware of the need to reduce their impact on the environment, which is driving the demand for sustainable construction practices. This is supported by the increasing cost of construction materials and labor across the globe. Moreover, in order to reduce waste and maximize material usage in the construction process, there has a growing demand for construction and demolition waste management services as a way to reduce waste.

Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report. Also, detailed profiles of all major companies have been provided. The market structure is fragmented with a number of small and large regional and global players operating in the industry. The volume of new entrants is moderate in the construction and demolition waste management industry due to the capital-intensive nature of the sector which makes the competition tougher for new entrants. However, low product differentiation and switching costs make the entry barrier low for the new entrants.

What is Construction and Demolition Waste Management?

Construction and demolition (C&D) waste management encompasses the comprehensive process of monitoring, collecting, transporting, recycling, and disposing of waste generated during construction, renovation, or demolition of buildings or infrastructure. Demolishing existing structures can generate several kinds of waste materials, including metals, wood, bricks, plastics, concrete, and sanitary ware. C&D is essential in minimizing waste materials scattering around, disposing or reusing these waste materials to curb their negative impact on the environment and reduce the consumption of virgin resources. Unlike residential waste, construction and demolition waste materials are heavy, inert, and non-biodegradable, requiring commercial facilities to sort, treat, and filter these materials before reusing or decomposing them. With increasing awareness of environmental degradation, C&D waste management has become an essential process globally to protect the environment and promote sustainability, minimize waste generation and promote a circular economy.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on the industry, leading to the imposing of nationwide lockdowns, prompting waste management companies to scale down processing capacities to prioritize employee safety through social distancing and other safety measures. As a result, supply chains faced constraints due to movement restrictions and the demand for these services came to a sharp decline. However, companies adjusted supply chain and processing planning to address these challenges during the second half of the pandemic. Short-term disruptions and labor shortages affected raw material prices and despite the negative impact of the pandemic, the construction and demolition waste management industry has regained momentum, and the market outlook is positive as of present.

Construction and Demolition Waste Management Market Trends:

The market is primarily driven by considerable growth in the number of construction and infrastructure development projects across the globe. This can be attributed to the rising volume of waste materials and the growing incidences of improper waste disposal. In line with this, the increasing levels of GHG emissions, environmental degradation, and adverse health effects due to improper waste disposal and landfills are resulting in a higher uptake of C&D management services. Stringent government regulations to control illegal disposal, reuse waste materials as well as promoting awareness about the harmful impact of growing waste volume are also bolstering the market. The market is further fueled by the advent of green buildings incorporating efficient waste management systems with resource-efficient and environmentally responsible processes throughout the building’s lifecycle. Furthermore, the emerging trend of the use of recycled materials in construction is propelling the demand for management solutions for effective sorting and recycling of construction and demolition waste, thereby creating a positive market outlook. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include rapid urbanization, continual innovations of construction materials, inflating disposable income levels and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
