The global forestry and logging market grew from $981.76 billion in 2022 to $1083.25 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. 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, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The forestry and logging market is expected to grow to $1600.41 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 10.2%. Wood use as a building material is increasing due to the numerous advantages of wood buildings over concrete buildings, thus driving the market for forestry and logging producers. Presently, the building industry is causing 25% of the greenhouse gas emissions globally and therefore the concept of green building construction has evolved, which is expected to reduce CO2 emissions and store carbon. Also, constructing buildings with wood will produce very little waste and can be constructed quickly when compared to a concrete building. For instance, in December 2020, according to an article shared by Unit Magazine, a Finland-based multidisciplinary publication of Tampere Universities, In Finland, wood is frequently used to construct vacation cottages. There are 500,000 summer cottages scattered around the nation, and 7,000 more pop up every year. Up to 99% of them are constructed of wood. In the USA, wood is a common building resource because labour and wood are both inexpensive. Wood makes up more than 80% of all new homes in the US. Therefore, increasing wood use as a building material is driving the market for forestry and logging producers. Stringent regulations have always been a major challenge to the forestry and logging products market. Several countries across the globe have imposed total or partial logging bans in natural forests as a response to natural disasters which are believed to have been caused by deforestation. Banning or restricting timber products is thus viewed as a corrective measure to promote forest conservation and protection and to ensure broader forest benefits for future generations. Advanced techniques in forest logging methods have improved safety, fibre utilization, environmental protection, and productivity with minimum damage to residual trees. The different improved methods of logging are harvester/forwarder systems, cable harvesting systems, and helicopter logging. Harvester or forwarder types of logging are most common in northern and central Europe, and their use is expected to increase in the future due to their economic, ergonomic, and ecological advantages over motor/manual (saw/skidding) harvesting. Cable harvesting is used in mountainous regions, whereas helicopter logging is popular in environmentally constrained and remote areas. According to a recent study, improved logging operations result in a 30% increase in wood volume, and damage to residual trees can be reduced to 20%. For instance, Markit!

The global cement and concrete products market grew from $364.12 billion in 2022 to $394.02 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. 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, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The cement and concrete products market is expected to grow to $527.78 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.6%. Governments globally launched initiatives to provide funds and subsidies to make housing affordable, especially for low-income families, which drove the demand for cement and concrete. These subsidies allowed customers to borrow money at low-interest rates to invest in new houses. The government of Australia, for example, provides a grant of $15,000 through the ‘First Home Owners Grant’ scheme for the purchase or construction of homes by first-time buyers. The Indian Government launched the “Housing for All by 2022” mission which provides grants for slum rehabilitation and construction of new houses. Such government initiatives encouraged people to construct new houses and drive growth in the housing market increasing the demand for cement in the historic period. During the forecast period, the shortages of coal supply were a major restraint on the cement manufacturing industry. Cement manufacturing is an energy-intensive process and a major portion of this energy comes from burning coal, especially in developing countries. Coal supply reduced globally during the historic period due to logistics issues and a decline in investments in coal extraction, negatively affecting the cement manufacturing industry. This increased the costs of coal, and also the production costs for cement manufacturers, restricting the growth of the cement and concrete market. Cement manufacturing plants are increasingly using digital technologies such as the internet of things (IoT) to improve plant efficiencies. IoT is a network of physical devices that communicate over the internet. IoT helps in remote monitoring and predictive maintenance of a cement plant. Remote monitoring is used to oversee operations of big vehicles in the quarries and to report on key metrics such as fuel consumption per ton and operating hours. IoT can also be used to predict potential malfunctions and maintenance needs. In cement plants, predictive maintenance can improve up-time on critical cement equipment such as grinding mills and kilns. Other applications of IoT in the cement industry include tracking and measuring the durability of concrete mixture, reporting on compliance to international standards, and connected logistics to improve quarry production. Zoom link, a ready-mix concrete production equipment manufacturer, is actively testing data-based metrics to improve operations of vehicles used in quarries.
