Construction chemicals are chemical compounds that are added as formulations on construction materials. It is one of the niche segments from the specialty chemical market. It is used on construction material or the finished structure to increase their life and also provide protection from environmental hazards. Increasing the demand for buildings, roads, bridges, tunnels and dams are driven the construction chemicals market. Moreover, global concrete market has risen dramatically due to the development of construction chemicals. Polymers are the most important raw materials of construction chemicals from chemical formulation ranging from adhesives to waterproofing treatments. Protective coatings and resins are largest segment in global construction chemicals, followed by adhesives and sealants, concrete admixtures and asphalt additives.

This report estimates the market size of the global construction chemicals market both in terms of volume and revenue. The market has been further segmented on the basis of types such as concrete and mortar admixtures, water proofing compounds, floor hardeners, protective coatings and resins, adhesives and sealants as well as by applications such as residential construction, nonresidential construction and non-building construction. This segmentation is given for major regions and key countries in those regions. Market drivers, restraints and challenges, raw material and product price trends are discussed in detail. Market share by participants for the overall market is discussed in detail in the report.
