The construction composites market consists of sales of the construction composites by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that are used in the construction of entire bridge structures, bridge decks, and bridge enclosures. The composite construction is aimed at providing the maximum strength and stiffness to the structure with the minimum investment of the resources that are made available. They are advantageous due to their high stiffness-to-weight and strength-to-weight ratios when compared to standard materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. The compression resistance of concrete and the tension resistance of steel in the structure are combined in the composite construction. The main types of resins in construction composites are polyester resin, vinyl ester, polyethylene, polypropylene, and epoxy resin. Polyesters are the frequently used thermoset resin for all commercial composites. These resins provide stability of good mechanical, chemical, electrical properties, dimensional stability, ease of handling, and low cost. The different types of fibers include carbon fibers, glass fibers, and natural fibers that are used by various end-use sectors such as industrial, commercial, housing, and civil. The global construction composites market is expected to grow from $5.71 billion in 2021 to $6.31 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, affecting many markets across the globe. The market is expected to grow to $8.09 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The increasing construction activities are significantly driving the growth of the construction composites market. Construction is the process of putting together materials to create enormous structures. Composite materials are employed in construction because of the numerous advantages they provide over traditional building materials.
