Europe Construction Aggregates Market

Europe Construction Aggregates Market – Overview

Construction aggregate, or simply aggregate, refers to all sorts of construction materials utilized in the construction industry, such as sand, gravel, and crushed stone. Construction aggregates are employed to increase the volume of concrete as well as its durability by putting additional hardness and strength. Aggregates are inert elements that are utilized in a binding substance to form concrete. Aggregates serve as fillers or volume-increasing components on the one hand, and they are responsible for the hardness, stiffness, and roughness of concrete on the other. Aggregates utilized widely in the building industry include sand, gravel, and crushed stone. Aggregators are divided as Fine Aggregates and Coarse Aggregates based on grain size. Sand, with grain sizes ranging from 4.75mm to 0.15mm, is an example of Fine Aggregates. Coarse Aggregates, on the other hand, have a grain size of about 7.5mm and are typically utilized as gravel. Aggregates that have been treated are a subset of aggregates. They are specifically intended for use in the manufacturing of high-quality concrete. They are classified into three types based on density: normal aggregates, high-density aggregates, and low-density aggregates.

Growth Drivers

Massive Nation-wide Urban Redevelopment Projects in Türkiye and Ukraine

Major companies in Europe construction aggregates market are expected to gain from significant opportunities provided by the massive infrastructure projects in earthquake-hit Türkiye and war-ravaged Ukraine.

In Türkiye, analysts estimated that the urban redevelopment across the country post the earthquake would provide huge opportunities for the construction and related industries in total investment of more than USD 250 billion. On February 06, 2023, a 7.8-magnitude of earthquake hit Türkiye and Syria, killing tens of thousands of people and severely damaging infrastructure in cities and villages across its fault line. The President of Türkiye announced that the government would engage in a comprehensive construction program to rebuild cities with safety and sustainability.

In Ukraine, Russia’s war in the country has been continuing for more than a year now. Consequently, infrastructure across Ukraine has been severely damaged. In September 2022, Ukraine government, the European Commission, and the World Bank, along with their partners estimated the cost of Ukraine’s reconstruction and recovery would be about USD 350 billion. As the war continues, the cost is anticipated to escalate.

Massive redevelopment and recovery projects in Türkiye and Ukraine are expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for construction and supplementary industries. It, in turn, is projected to aid the growth of Europe construction aggregates market during the forecast period between 2023 and 2029 and beyond.

Growing Manufacturing Activities

The expansion of the European construction market can be ascribed to rising demand for housing in urban areas, increased infrastructure development activities, and increased modernization and refurbishment of buildings to improve their energy efficiency. Given the region's significant economic expansion, commercial infrastructure construction, such as offices, schools, hotels, restaurants, and leisure facilities, is on the rise. Furthermore, the introduction of many favorable programs and investments by governments to improve housing infrastructure and provide housing for the vulnerable sector is supporting the expansion of the European building market. For example, the Dutch government announced a EUR 253 million investment in December 2021 to build 44,277 new residences, 64% of which would be affordable housing.

Restraints

High Initial and Overall Costs

The availability of low-cost replacements, such as fly ash and recycled aggregates, is anticipated to stifle the expansion of Europe construction aggregates sector. Unfortunately, these materials have lesser compressive strength than construction aggregates, which limits their use in the construction industry. Furthermore, the increasing presence of a large number of businesses, severe rivalry in the market, high capital costs required for operations, and stable demand for aggregates from France's building sector make entry into the market difficult.

Impact of COVID-19 on Europe Construction Aggregates Market

COVID-19 had a detrimental impact on the Europe construction aggregates market. Europe has been placed under strict lockdown. Although it has now been lifted, construction activity in the region has yet to fully resume. Furthermore, delays in petroleum supplies across roads and waterways caused by the closure of major international crossings have significantly increased the quantity of inventories. Consequently, higher expenditures paid for building aggregate storage have restricted market expansion. Delays in cargo shipments from refineries to targeted destinations, as well as travel restrictions, have all had an impact on the building aggregate supply chain.
