KEY INDUSTRY INSIGHTS
The global insulated concrete form (ICF) market size is anticipated to grow substantially during the projected timeframe 2024-2032. The product demand is primarily driven by the rapid rise in urbanization, especially in emerging economies. Insulated concrete forms (ICFs) result in cast-in-place concrete walls that are sandwiched between two layers of insulation material. They are used to hold fresh concrete that remain in place permanently to provide insulation for the structure they enclose. This formwork consists of twin-walled expanded polystyrene panels that are stacked together to create the permanent formwork used to contain the ready-mixed concrete for the walls. The formwork remains in place to provide complete thermal insulation to the walls of the finished building. Increased demand for sustainable and green construction to reduce carbon footprint in the environment and for disaster resiliency is likely to fuel the growth of the global insulated concrete forms market. The high strength, durability, and light properties associated with these forms should further stimulate the market. Moreover, growing demand for heating and cooling benefits is expected to increase growth of the global insulated concrete forms industry.
Rapid urbanization in most of the developing countries is projected to offer a positive outlook for the building and infrastructure sector, which is likely to fuel the growth of insulated concrete forms market. Besides, technological advancements in the forms has augmented its popularity in the infrastructural and construction sector. Moreover, increasing natural calamities such as earthquakes and flood, have increased the demand for construction of disaster-resistant buildings. Additionally, there is a huge support from the government for this concrete form, since they are made up of recyclable material.
However, the raw materials used in the manufacturing process are relatively expensive, which further restricts their use in various applications. Hence, this is anticipated to restrain market growth.
Key Market Driver -
Rapid urbanization, technological advancements, and increasing government support will drive the market growth
Key Market Restraint -
High raw material costs and lack of skilled workforce to restrict the market growth
