U.S. Construction Abrasive Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Construction abrasive refers to the sharp as well as hard material that is used in keeping the surface softened by grinding, polishing, finishing, and other ways. The construction is abrasive helps in increasing the surface profiling and, along with that effect, has maximized the usage in construction. The construction abrasive has a wide range of applications in new residential construction, residential renovation, new non-residential construction, and various other areas. Construction abrasives are available in various types, such as coated abrasive, bonded abrasive, and super abrasive. A construction abrasive involves the usage of a variety of raw materials, such as natural and synthetic.

U.S. Construction Abrasive Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing number of residential and commercial buildings

Abrasive are sharp, hard materials used to wear away the surface of softer, less resistant materials which are used in the construction. Abrasives are mostly used for the removal of surface material by grinding or rubbing. An increase in the construction of housing and commercial office in the U.S. will boost the market for construction abrasive in the region. This will drive the growth in U.S. construction abrasive market.

• Growing demand of high quality smooth finished surface materials

The demand of high quality smooth finished surface materials is increasing in the construction of the new commercial building. In the U.S., with the increasing working population in the country, the demand for commercial buildings is increasing. In the construction of the commercial building, several types of surface cleaners’ equipment are being used for the production of smooth surface floors and walls. This will drive the growth in U.S. construction abrasive market.

Opportunities

• Growing robotics equipment in the construction industry

Highly automated robotic equipment, production parts, and products can be even more consistent with higher quality. Demand for abrasives in the application has increased with the rising robotic equipment for surface finishing in the construction industry. To ensure better overall quality, robotic equipment can take advantage of speed, productivity, and repeatability, which also increases abrasive demand.

Restraints/Challenges

• Stringent regulations on the usage of silica abrasives  

Abrasives are manufactured from different raw materials and used on different grade of products to give desirable shapes. On rubbing and grinding of the materials with the abrasives increases the production of gasses and dust in the environment, which result in toxic pollutants in the air. Applying the silica abrasives at the construction site resulted in two-thirds of the workers assessed were potentially over-exposed to respirable crystalline silica. The higher authority for the use of silica abrasives has approved many strict regulations and lawsuits. By itself, the use of a silica replacement did not seem to have a significant impact on the mean levels of airborne exposure. Through the use of silica abrasives, which are highly toxic to the lungs, many forms of VOCs are released.
