Industrial and institutional sector to grow at a faster rate during the forecast period

• In 2022, the market studied witnessed a 1.5% decline in demand, primarily driven by a dip in construction activities across end-user sectors. However, the construction volume was projected to rebound in 2023, leading to a 5.1% surge in demand for anchors and grouts compared to 2022.

Rising retail and office spaces in countries such as India to boost the Asia-Pacific commercial construction sector

• In 2022, Asia-Pacific witnessed a 3.23% decline in its commercial new floor area compared to the previous year.
