The Importance of Recycled Materials in the Construction Industry drives Recycled Concrete Aggregates Market

Recycled Concrete Aggregates Industry Overview

The global recycled concrete aggregates market size was estimated at USD 7,708.3 million in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8% from 2021 to 2028. The market growth is expected to be driven by rising concern about the environment and natural resources and the importance of recycled materials in the construction industry.

A major impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been felt by the construction sector, a sensitive sector to economic cycles. There have also been disruptions in the industry as many countries have closed their construction sites. In addition, most of the open sites have faced disruptions in supply chains and operational restrictions. This has resulted in financial index volatility. However, construction holds much potential to stimulate recovery, owing to its ability to create jobs; and, as a result, recovery measures can help the sector shift toward sustainability and digitization.

Words such as "sustainable development" have become household terms in the U.S. Concrete is the most important, the most versatile, and the most widely used building material across the globe. With more stringent sustainability requirements, rising costs, a shortage of labor, and new materials, production techniques, and digital tools available, the industry is forced to innovate. Another environmental burden is the demolition and disposal of concrete structures, pavements, etc. Concrete is the largest single component of construction debris, which contributes a large portion of solid waste disposal problems.

Concrete waste can be recycled into recycled concrete aggregates, which are estimated to be less expensive than natural aggregates. Recycling aggregates has some limitations due to transport, quality, and availability of raw materials, which in this case are highways and demolitions. It is necessary to recycle every tonne of concrete to benefit the environment and contribute to a more sustainable future rather than burying it. To protect natural resources and promote sustainability, companies engaged in the construction materials business focus on producing and promoting recycled concrete aggregates in the U.S.
