Europe Precast Concrete Market Size and Forecasts (2020 - 2030), Regional Share, Trends, and Growth Opportunity Analysis Report Coverage: By Structure System (Beam and Column System, Floor and Roof System, Bearing Wall System, Façade System, and Others), End Use (Residential, Commercial, and Others), and Country
The Europe precast concrete market size was valued at US$ 29.35 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 46.42 billion by 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2022 to 2030.
Precast concrete is widely used in housing, factory, and national laboratory construction projects. Construction activities planned to use precast are cost-effective, fast, and environmentally friendly, and they help ensure optimum quality. The “Concrete Initiative” project aims to increase awareness about sustainable construction in Europe. This project is led by the European Cement Association (CEMBUREAU), the European Federation of Precast Concrete (BIBM) and the European Ready-Mixed Concrete Organisation (ERMCO). Owing to this, the governments of various economies in Europe have taken certain initiatives by investing in infrastructure projects. According to data published by European Commission in June 2023, European Union plans to invest US$ 6.53 billion in sustainable, safe, and efficient transport infrastructure. Such large-scale projects aim to generate new job opportunities and diversify the economy. Thus, supporting government initiatives provide many opportunities for players operating in the Europe precast concrete market.
The Europe precast concrete market has been segmented based on structure system into beam and column system, floor and roof system, bearing wall system, façade system, and others. The beam and column system held the largest share in the Europe precast concrete market in 2022. Columns consist of multilevel components that support beams and spandrels in applications such as parking structures and precast concrete structure systems of all types. The main advantages of precast concrete structures such as beams and columns are increased construction speed and improved productivity, quality control, and cost-efficiency. The precast beams and columns offer other advantages, including design flexibility, faster installation structures, sustainable construction, durability, long life, low maintenance, and moisture resistance. Precast beams and columns are widely used in residential and commercial sectors. Floor and roof system is another attractive segment. The use of precast concrete is extended to different types of floor and roof structure systems, including hollow core floors, ribbed floors, concrete roof elements, and massive slab floors. The partially precast concrete floors are made up of a pre-casted part along with a cast in-situ part.
