The global insulated concrete form market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of nearly 5.7% during the forecast period. The major factors that are driving the market growth include the increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings, along with the increasing construction of high-rise buildings. For instance, The Indian government has been actively boosting housing construction, as it aims to provide homes to about 1.3 billion people. The country is likely to witness $1.3 trillion of investment in the housing sector over the next seven years, and it is likely to witness the construction of 60 million new homes in the country. The availability of affordable housing in the country is expected to rise by around 70% by 2024.
Another factor includes increasing preparation toward disasters, and reduced construction time drives the market growth. For instance, in August 2021, Graven Hill has partnered with Iconic Development Group to offer ICF-constructed homes in the United Kingdom. Moreover, Iconic Development Group is building six homes at Graven Hill and plans to build 20 houses at the site in the coming years. However, high costs of insulated concrete form are expected to hamper the growth of the insulated concrete form market during the forecast period.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Insulated Concrete Form Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had disrupted the manufacturing operations of various industries across the globe, which had drastically reduced the demand for insulated concrete form. As per the International Monetary Fund (IMF), due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global economy shrunk by 3.0% in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has given a very tough time to most of the manufacturing, developing, production, and logistic units of the market. The construction industry has been impacted due to this pandemic. The negative impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the construction sector has in turn led to declining in the growth of the insulated concrete form industry. Due to lockdown the supply chain disruptions and closing of contracts to control expenses. Every day about an estimated loss of $4,000.0 million is faced by the global market in this pandemic. The investment in the insulated concrete form market is decreased by 13.0-30.0% during the pandemic. The insulated concrete form market started recovery as industrial operations were normalized after the recovery.
Segmental Outlook
The global Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) market is segmented based on the material, and application. Based on the material, the market is segmented into polystyrene foam, polyurethane foam, cement-bonded wood fiber, cement-bonded polystyrene beads, and cellular concrete. Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into the commercial, industrial, infrastructure, and residential.
Global Insulated Concrete Form Market Share by Application, 2020 (%)
ResidentialSegment Holds the Major Share in the Global Insulated Concrete Form Market.
Based on the application, the residential held the major share in 2020. The migration of rural population to urban areas, and the conversion of towns into cities are increasing the development for new construction projects, which in turn, is stimulating the demand for ICF. As per the Asia-Pacific Human Development Report published by the United Nations Development Programme, the total population in the Asia Pacific region is projected to reach 4.84 billion by 2050, of which 64% is projected to be urban population. A positive shift in the living standards is expected to lead to the demand for energy-efficient, and durable buildings. The growth in disposable income enables consumers to opt for new, latest, and environment-friendly construction materials.
Regional Outlook
The global Insulated Concrete Form market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
Global Insulated Concrete Form Market Growth by Region, 2021-2027
Asia-Pacific Region Holds the Major Share in the Global Insulated Concrete Form Market.
Asia-Pacific region dominates the insulated concrete form market. The factor that drives the market in Asia-Pacific is the increasing penetration of ICF blocks in the commercial construction segment. China and Japan accounted for the prominent shares for the consumption of the product due to the rising trends for modern and green constructions. Additionally, government investments in the construction sector provide potential growth opportunities for the insulated concrete form market in this region. For instance, to contain the growing greenhouse gas predicaments in the major cities of China, the country’s national climate commitment calls for 50% of all new buildings constructed by 2020 to be certified as green buildings, while its 13th five-year plan prioritizes building efficiency. Following these commitments, the country’s green building sector is expected to increase from 5% to 28% by 2030, representing a $12.9 trillion investment opportunity. This provides a lucrative opportunity for the ICF market.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global Insulated Concrete Form market include Airlite Plastics Company, Amvic Inc., Apex Block, and BASF SE. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, partnerships and collaborations, and geographical expansion, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, In April 2021, the Insulating Concrete Forms Manufacturers Association (ICFMA) has announced its partnership with National Ready Mixed Concrete Association’s (NRMCA) Build with a strength program, namely, Build with Strength 2.0. The program is partnering with Humanity International to fortify decent, affordable, and sustainable housing across the US, and is donating concrete for the construction of Habitat homes.
