Shotcrete/Sprayed Concrete Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Shotcrete/sprayed concrete is a mixture of portland and aggregate cement which is carried by compressed air to the outlet of spray gun with the help of water and projected at high velocity onto the surface. This mixture is then sprayed in place and immediately trowelled or carved. This is a high performance concrete/mortar which is spread at high velocity on the backing surface of construction through a hose. Shotcrete/sprayed concrete can be conveyed by using two methods: dry mix and wet mix.

Global Shotcrete/Sprayed Concrete Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing usage of shotcrete/sprayed concrete in commercial and non-commercial construction

The demand for shotcrete/sprayed concrete is also driven by the upsurge in demand from commercial and non-commercial construction.
