Cement and concrete products encompass structures constructed from aggregate, such as hard, chemically inert particles such as sand and gravel, bound together by cement and water. These products, including concrete pipes, bricks, and paving blocks, contribute to the strength, durability, safety, and cost-effectiveness of constructing buildings and commercial offices.
The primary types of cement and concrete products include cement, ready-mix concrete, concrete pipes, bricks and blocks, and various other concrete products. Ready-mix concrete is produced in a batch plant and utilized in construction projects. Different types of cement products include rapid-hardening cement, low-heat cement, white cement, hydrophobic cement, and other variations such as colored cement and Portland pozzolana cement. These products find applications in both residential and non-residential construction.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs on cement, clinker, aggregates, and construction inputs have influenced the cement and concrete products market by increasing production and transportation costs across key segments such as ready-mix concrete, concrete pipes, and bricks. Regions with high import dependence, including parts of Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa, are most affected by fluctuating tariff structures. These cost pressures can slow large-scale residential and non-residential construction projects. However, tariffs have also encouraged local manufacturing, use of blended and alternative cements, and investments in regional supply chains to improve cost efficiency and resilience.
The cement and concrete products market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides cement and concrete products market statistics, including cement and concrete products industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a cement and concrete products market share, detailed cement and concrete products market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the cement and concrete products industry. This cement and concrete products market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The cement and concrete products market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $402.87 billion in 2025 to $419.29 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of residential and commercial construction, expansion of urban infrastructure projects, availability of raw materials for cement production, rising demand for affordable housing, increased use of concrete pipes and blocks.
The cement and concrete products market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $508.03 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing focus on sustainable and low-carbon cement, rising investments in smart cities and infrastructure, growth in precast and modular construction, demand for high-performance concrete products, technological advancements in cement manufacturing. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for ready-mix and precast concrete, growing adoption of high-strength and lightweight concrete, increasing use of specialized cement types, expansion of infrastructure and urban construction projects, rising preference for durable and cost-effective building materials.
Government initiatives aimed at making housing more affordable, particularly for low-income families, are indeed driving demand for cement and concrete. These programs often provide funds and subsidies that enable individuals to access low-interest loans for home construction, significantly impacting the construction industry. For example, as highlighted by the Center for American Progress in September 2024, the U.S. Treasury Department allocates approximately $13.5 billion annually to the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides $3.2 billion in grants through the Public Housing Capital Fund for repairs and rehabilitation of public housing. These financial supports not only encourage new housing developments but also drive up the need for construction materials like cement and concrete. As governments continue to prioritize affordable housing solutions, the cement and concrete products market is expected to see sustained growth.
The increasing pace of urbanization is anticipated to support the expansion of the cement and concrete products market in the coming years. Urbanization is the process through which a rising share of a country's or region's population relocates from rural locations to cities or urban centers, leading to the expansion and development of urban areas. This process involves large-scale migration from rural regions to cities. Such population movement drives greater demand for housing, commercial spaces, infrastructure, and public amenities. Cement and concrete serve as essential construction materials for residential buildings, high-rise structures, roads, bridges, and other forms of urban infrastructure. For example, in March 2025, according to Our World in Data, a UK-based organization, it is estimated that by 2050, nearly 7 out of every 10 people worldwide will reside in urban areas. Additionally, by 2050, only a limited number of countries are expected to have a higher rural population share than urban. Therefore, the rising trend of urbanization is contributing significantly to the growth of the cement and concrete products market.
Major companies operating in the cement and concrete products market are prioritizing sustainable advancements, including the development of carbon-neutral cement brands that integrate carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology to lower environmental impact and meet increasingly strict emissions regulations. CCS-based carbon-neutral cement captures CO2 released during the cement manufacturing process and securely stores it, enabling the finished product to reach net-zero lifecycle emissions while preserving traditional performance standards. For example, in November 2023, Heidelberg Materials AG, a Germany-based multinational building materials company, introduced evoZero, a carbon-neutral cement brand manufactured using CCS at sites such as its Brevik plant. The product performs comparably to conventional cement in terms of mixing, setting, and strength development, allowing contractors to adopt it without modifying existing construction methods, while delivering verified carbon neutrality through large-scale CCS implementation and validated carbon accounting.
