Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Product Type (Wall Panels, Beams & Lintels and Other Product Types), Application (Floors & Roofs, Walls and Other Applications), End User and Geography

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Product Type (Wall Panels, Beams & Lintels and Other Product Types), Application (Floors & Roofs, Walls and Other Applications), End User and Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Market is accounted for $22322.98 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $37851.93 million by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period. Autoclaved Aerated concrete (AAC), also known as aircrete, foam concrete, autoclaved cellular concrete, autoclaved light-weight concrete, or porous concrete. Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a type of concrete that has closed air pockets. This form of concrete contains around 80% air induced by the expansion agent in order to minimise the density and total weight of the product.AAC is one-fifth the weight of concrete. AAC is mainly manufactured using fine aggregate or fly-ash, cement, and an expansion agent, generally aluminium powder. AAC is offered in the form of panels and blocks. AAC wall panels are primarily used for cladding, but they can also support weight. There are also AAC floor and roof panels available.

According to a survey conducted by the American Institute of Architects, the commercial construction sector in the United States was expected to increase by 0.9% in 2020 and 1.5% in 2021.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Favourable properties of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC)

The high fire resistance, light weight, and high thermal insulation qualities of AAC are driving the growth of the global autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) market. AAC is made from non-combustible and inorganic components such as cement, fly ash or fine aggregate, lime, gypsum, and others. This improves its resistance to fire. Furthermore, the autoclaving technique used in the production of AAC products greatly reduces the amount of water added during the component mixing process. This limits the growth of organic materials on the component, such as algae or weeds. This increases demand for AAC materials, accelerating the growth of the autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) business.

Restraint:

Lack of knowledge about AAC in developing markets

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (ACC) is gaining popularity among builders in the regional marketplaces. However, there is a significant lack of understanding about AAC and its benefits, particularly among persons in developing and underdeveloped nations. High familiarity with traditional construction materials, such as AAC, may pose a barrier to comprehending relatively new ones. As a result, individuals may be cautious to choose AAC over well-known traditional materials. Therefore, a lack of or limited awareness regarding AAC could impede the worldwide Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) market's growth.

Opportunity:

Growing preference for affordable housing

Increasing environmental consciousness, as well as changes in people’s needs and demands, has fuelled an increase in the number of smart city initiatives and low-cost green construction materials globally. Builders use the smart home concept and sustainable materials into the design of inexpensive residential and commercial structures. From their increasingly urbanised populations, major emerging economies such as China and India have a significant demand for affordable housing units. China and India are key markets for AAC products because they are the world's most populous and developing countries.

Threat:

Brittle nature of AAC blocks

AAC Block is a non-load bearing material that can only be used in wall dividers. Because AAC blocks are brittle by nature, they can break easily and must be handled more carefully than clay bricks to avoid breakages. Because of the presence of voids, it is fragile in nature. Their water absorption rate is really high. As a result of their expansion when absorbing water and contraction when losing moisture, cracks form in the structure. When installed in high humidity conditions, interior finishes must have low vapour permeability whereas exterior finishes must have high permeability.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) market, mostly due to a halt in international trade, protracted lockdowns, and ceased manufacturing and building activities. The unexpected increase in Covid-19 illnesses prompted tight limitations and preventive steps to limit the transmission of the novel corona virus. International trade was completely halted, and the supply chain was affected. However, as smart city projects and construction activities resumed after Covid-19, the world began to see a major increase in demand for AAC.

The blocks segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The blocks segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to easy installation and increasing demand from residential as well as non-residential projects. Aerated autoclaved concrete blocks are used as a primary building material for internal as well as external construction applications. AAC blocks provide insulation, make construction quick and easy, as they are customizable on construction sites. Therefore, the blocks segment dominates the market.

The residential segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The residential segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to the spurring demand for lightweight and sustainable building materials in constructing housing units. Various initiatives, such as inexpensive housing in developing economies like China and India, as well as expanding policies to replace traditional materials with AAC as a residential building material, considerably increase demand for Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (AAC) in the residential sector.

Region with highest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to some key factors such as, rapid urbanization, industrial growth, ongoing developments and construction projects. Because of the simple availability of raw materials and the growing need for more cost-effective goods in the region, manufacturers are focusing on boosting production of autoclaved aerated concrete materials. India's and China's growing populations are also contributing to market expansion.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, as market participants pursue various tactics to increase revenue prospects. Rapid revenue growth has resulted in the presence of some large players in the region's countries. Furthermore, growing expenditures in technical developments in AAC generating firms in the region are boosting growth in the North America market.
