The global bio-based construction materials market size was estimated at USD 36.0 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 75.6 million by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 8.6% from 2025 to 2033. The industry is driven by the increasing emphasis on sustainability within the construction sector.
With growing concerns over the environmental impact of conventional materials such as concrete and steel, bio-based alternatives offer a lower carbon footprint and improved eco-friendliness. Many governments worldwide have implemented stringent regulations and incentives to promote the adoption of sustainable building practices, which in turn fuels demand for bio-based materials like timber, hempcrete, and bamboo. This regulatory support is pivotal, as it aligns with wider goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving net-zero carbon targets in urban development.
Technological advancements in material science and production methods also play a critical role in expanding the bio-based construction materials market. Innovations such as bio-based resins, engineered wood products, and mycelium-based composites have improved material performance, durability, and cost-efficiency. Furthermore, emerging manufacturing technologies like foam forming and energy-efficient processing facilitate the commercial scalability of these materials, making them more competitive against traditional options. These technological improvements enhance the feasibility of bio-based solutions across a variety of construction applications, accelerating their adoption globally.
Another major driver is the rising consumer awareness and preference for healthier indoor environments. Bio-based construction materials often enhance indoor air quality by emitting fewer volatile organic compounds compared to synthetic or fossil-based products. Consequently, homeowners, architects, and developers are increasingly prioritizing materials that contribute not only to sustainability but also to occupant health and comfort. This trend is closely linked to the broader movement towards green building certifications and sustainable urban living, which encourage the use of renewable and non-toxic materials in construction projects.
