The lightweight aggregates market in the US is expected to grow due to various reasons. One of them is the rising building expenditures in the country. Between 2019 and 2024, the expenditures increased significantly. The expected cost of the construction industry, which includes residential and commercial construction in January 2025, was USD 2,192.5 billion, and highway construction cost USD 145 billion. In contrast, public construction costs USD 506.6 billion, according to the US Census Bureau. The government is focusing on enhancing public infrastructure. One significant project is the Hudson Tunnel Project to improve rail infrastructure between New Jersey and New York. The I-5 corridor extension on the West Coast is also an important construction project. The California High-Speed Rail project aims to build a high-speed rail network connecting the state's major cities. Government funding is available for surface transportation infrastructure improvements that have a major local or regional impact through the US Department of Transportation's (USDOT) Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) grant program. On the other hand, funding for bridge replacement, rehabilitation, preservation, and protection projects that lower the number of bridges in bad condition or those in fair condition with the potential to deteriorate into poor condition is provided by the Bridge Investment Program (BIP). This is driving the lightweight aggregates market in the US.
The fly ash segment accounted for the largest share, by type, in the US lightweight aggregates market in 2024.
Due to its extensive availability and environmental advantages, fly ash is the leading type in the US lightweight aggregates market. Fly ash-based aggregates are lighter, more affordable to transport, and easier to handle on construction sites. This lowers overall building expenses. Fly ash enhances the strength and durability of concrete, thus, it is a preferred material in the construction industry. As the construction sector is growing in the US, the demand for lightweight aggregates is expected to rise.
The building & construction segment accounted for the largest share, by end-use industry, in the US lightweight aggregates market in 2024.
Building & construction is the leading end-use industry in the US lightweight aggregates market. Lightweight aggregates are used in residential and commercial projects as they help in reducing the overall weight of structures. As the US is experiencing growth in infrastructure development due to government investments, urban expansion, and rising housing demand, the need for lightweight aggregates is expected to increase. The lightweight aggregates support green building initiatives and is further expected to boost the market in the US.
