Egypt
Construction Chemicals Market is anticipated to grow at a significant rate in
the projected period, owing to various market-driving factors, such as growing
construction activities in the country, and favorable government policies and
initiatives.
Construction
chemicals are specialty chemicals used in the construction industry to enhance
the properties of concrete, mortar, and other construction materials. These
chemicals can be used to improve the strength, durability, workability, and
appearance of construction materials. Egypt is one of the largest
construction markets in Africa and the third largest in the Middle East and
North Africa (MENA) region, following the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the
United Arab Emirates (USD 1.3 trillion and USD 519 billion, consecutively).
Egypt
has seen a growing demand for construction chemicals in recent years. This is
due in part to the country's increasing focus on infrastructure development and
urbanization, as well as the growing awareness among builders and developers
about the benefits of using construction chemicals. The most commonly used
construction chemicals in Egypt include concrete admixtures, waterproofing
chemicals, flooring chemicals, adhesives and sealants, and repair and
rehabilitation chemicals.
Concrete
admixtures, in particular, have seen a significant increase in demand in Egypt.
These chemicals are used to modify the properties of concrete, such as its
setting time, workability, and strength. This allows builders and developers to
create stronger and more durable structures that can withstand harsh weather
conditions and other external factors. Furthermore, supportive government
policies and the development of green chemicals are the other aspects that
influence the growth of the Egypt construction chemicals market.
Growing
infrastructure development and residential construction activities are Factors
that Drive the Egypt Construction Chemicals Market Growth
The
construction chemicals market in Egypt has been experiencing significant growth
in recent years, driven by the country's growing infrastructure development and
residential construction activities. With a rapidly growing population and a
need to modernize the country's infrastructure, the demand for construction
chemicals has increased exponentially, leading to a favorable market
environment. Egypt ranked at the third place in the MENA region with USD27.3
billion amount of capital contributing to the country annual GDP.
Infrastructure
development has been a key focus for the Egyptian government in the forecast
period. The government has been investing heavily in infrastructure projects
such as highways, bridges, airports, and other key facilities, to create new
opportunities for economic growth and improve the standard of living for its
citizens. This has led to a significant increase in construction activities,
creating a significant demand for construction chemicals.
Concrete
admixtures are among the most commonly used construction chemicals in Egypt, as
they play a vital role in enhancing the properties of concrete, such as its
strength, durability, and workability. This enables builders and developers to
create structures that can withstand harsh weather conditions and other
external factors, which is essential in ensuring the longevity of the
infrastructure projects.
Residential
construction activities have also been a significant driver for the
construction chemicals market in Egypt. The country's growing population and
urbanization trends have led to an increase in demand for housing, which has
resulted in a surge in residential construction activities. This has created a
significant opportunity for the construction chemicals market, as these
chemicals are essential for creating strong, durable, and sustainable
buildings. For example, waterproofing chemicals are essential for protecting
buildings from water damage, which can cause significant harm to the structure
and compromise its longevity. Similarly, chemicals used in floor construction
are critical in creating a smooth and durable surface that can withstand heavy
foot traffic and other types of wear and tear. As a result, the demand for
construction chemicals in Egypt has been on the rise , contributing to the
growth of the construction chemicals market.
Supportive
Government Policies towards the Construction Sector in Egypt Pushing the
Construction Chemicals Market Growth
Egypt
has seen significant economic growth and development in recent years, thanks in
part to the government's focus on implementing favorable policies and
initiatives aimed at promoting investment and supporting economic growth. These
policies and initiatives have been a significant market-driving factor,
particularly in the construction chemicals industry, where the demand for
construction chemicals for use in various industries has been on the rise.
The
government's focus on promoting investment in the chemical industry and
policies drives the growth of the construction chemicals market in Egypt. The
government has implemented policies aimed at attracting foreign investment in
the sector, such as offering tax incentives, fewer bureaucratic obstacles, and
providing subsidies for companies that invest in the chemical industry. This
has resulted in increased investment in the chemical industry, including the
Construction Chemicals industry, and has contributed to the growth of the
sector in the country.
The
government has also implemented policies aimed at promoting economic growth and
improving the business environment in Egypt. For example, the government has
focused on improving infrastructure, including transportation networks, and
increasing access to electricity, making it easier for companies to operate in
the country. This has led to increased investment in various industries,
including the construction chemicals industry.
Apart
from these, the government is supporting green chemicals to produce different
manufacturing chemicals such as construction chemicals. As conventional
construction chemicals often have negative impacts on the environment and human
health, such as greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and toxicity.
Therefore, there is a growing demand for green chemicals that are derived from
renewable sources, have low or zero VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and are
biodegradable or recyclable. Green chemicals can offer several benefits for the
construction chemical sector, such as:
Reducing the environmental footprint and complying with the regulatory
standards and consumer preferences for sustainability.
Improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of construction processes and
materials, as green chemicals can reduce water and energy consumption, enhance
the durability and performance of concrete and other materials, and prevent
corrosion and microbial growth.
Creating new opportunities and markets for innovation and differentiation, as
green chemicals can enable the development of novel products and solutions that
meet the specific needs and challenges of different applications and regions.
