Vietnam is the fastest-growing country, while China is expected to maintain its leading position in Asia-Pacific during the forecast period
- In 2022, the demand for cement in Asia-Pacific dropped by 6.4% compared to the previous year, primarily driven by an 11.3% decline in demand from China, which is the region's dominant player. Several countries in the region were expected to see a slight dip in demand in 2023, and the overall growth was projected to be negative, at -0.4%, compared to 2022.
- China, with its consistently high construction output, stands as the largest cement consumer in Asia-Pacific. Notably, in 2022, its infrastructure sector alone accounted for 79% of the region's total cement demand in that sector. However, China's cement demand is anticipated to decline during the forecast period (2023-2030) due to challenges in the real estate industry and a decrease in new infrastructure projects.
- Following China, India emerges as the second-largest consumer of cement in Asia-Pacific. The residential sector in India holds the major share of cement demand, representing 61% of the total demand across sectors in 2022. Unlike some of its regional counterparts, India predominantly relies on concrete for its buildings, driving up the demand for cement.
- Among the countries in the region, Vietnam is projected to witness the highest growth in the demand for cement, and it is expected to register a CAGR of 7.46% by volume during the forecast period. This surge in demand is likely to be attributed to new land policies that bolster real estate development and the government's ambitious plan to construct 1 million affordable housing units by 2030.

Rising retail and office spaces in countries such as India to boost the Asia-Pacific commercial construction sector
- In 2022, Asia-Pacific witnessed a 3.23% decline in its commercial new floor area compared to the previous year. This setback was attributed to factors such as regulatory pressures, higher inflation, and a surge in mortgage rates. In 2023, the region rebounded, with commercial construction new floor area increasing by approximately 146 million sq. ft. This surge was primarily driven by a rise in foreign direct investment (FDI), which spurred the demand for new offices, warehouses, retail outlets, and other facilities. Notably, the Vietnamese construction sector attracted an FDI capital of USD 71.44 million in 2023.
- In 2020, the Asia-Pacific region experienced a significant setback in commercial new floor area, with a volume decline of 21.92% compared to 2019. This decline was primarily due to widespread government lockdowns, which disrupted project work and severely impacted supply chains, equipment, and labor. However, as restrictions eased, the region witnessed a remarkable rebound, with its commercial new floor area surging by 20.98% in 2021, reaching a volume of approximately 526 million sq. ft.
- Asia-Pacific's commercial new floor area is projected to witness substantial growth, with an estimated increase of 1.41 billion sq. ft by 2030 compared to 2023. This surge is fueled by a rising demand for shopping malls, office spaces, retail outlets, and more. The Asia-Pacific region is emerging as a global retail powerhouse, contributing to nearly three-quarters of the worldwide retail growth. For instance, the Indian Grade A office market in its top seven cities may to expand to 1 billion sq. ft by 2026 and further to 1.2 billion sq. ft. by 2030.

| Residential Construction | Residential construction involves constructing new houses or spaces like condominiums, villas, and landed homes. |
| Resin Fixing | The process of using resins like epoxy and polyurethane for grouting applications is called resin fixing. Resin fixing offers several advantages, such as high compressive and tensile strength, negligible shrinkage, and greater chemical resistance compared to cementitious fixing. |
| Retarder | Retarders are admixtures used to slow down the setting time of concrete. These are usually added with a dosage rate of around 0.2% -0.6% by weight of cement. These admixtures slow down hydration or lower the rate at which water penetrates the cement particles by making concrete workable for a long time. |
| Sealants | A sealant is a viscous material that has little or no flow qualities, which causes it to remain on surfaces where they are applied. Sealants can also be thinner, enabling penetration to a certain substance through capillary action. |
| Sheet Waterproofing Membranes | Sheet membrane systems are reliable and durable thermoplastic waterproofing solutions that are used for waterproofing applications even in the most demanding below-ground structures, including those exposed to highly aggressive ground conditions and stress. |
| Shrinkage Reducing Admixture | Shrinkage-reducing admixtures are used to reduce concrete shrinkage, whether from drying or self-desiccation. |
| Silicone | Silicone is a polymer that contains silicon combined with carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and, in some cases, other elements. It is an inert synthetic compound that comes in various forms, such as oil, rubber, and resin. Due to its heat-resistant properties, it finds applications in sealants, adhesives, lubricants, etc. |
| Solvent-borne Adhesives | Solvent-borne adhesives are mixtures of solvents and thermoplastic or slightly cross-linked polymers such as polychloroprene, polyurethane, acrylic, silicone, and natural and synthetic rubbers. |
| Surface Treatment Chemicals | Surface treatment chemicals are chemicals used to treat concrete surfaces, including roofs, vertical surfaces, and others. They act as curing compounds, demolding agents, rust removers, and others. They are cost-effective and can be used on roadways, pavements, parking lots, and others. |
| Viscosity Modifier | Viscosity Modifiers are concrete admixtures used to change various properties of admixtures, including viscosity, workability, cohesiveness, and others. These are usually added with a dosage of around 0.01% to 0.1% by weight of cement. |
| Water Reducer | Water reducers, also called plasticizers, are a type of admixture used to decrease the water-to-cement ratio in the concrete, thereby increasing the durability and strength of concrete. Various water reducers include refined lignosulfonates, gluconates, hydroxycarboxylic acids, sugar acids, and others. |
| Water-borne Adhesives | Water-borne adhesives use water as a carrier or diluting medium to disperse resin. They are set by allowing the water to evaporate or be absorbed by the substrate. These adhesives are compounded with water as a dilutant rather than a volatile organic solvent. |
| Waterproofing Chemicals | Waterproofing chemicals are designed to protect a surface from the perils of leakage. A waterproofing chemical is a protective coating or primer applied to a structure's roof, retaining walls, or basement. |
| Waterproofing Membranes | Waterproofing membranes are liquid-applied or self-adhering layers of water-tight materials that prevent water from penetrating or damaging a structure when applied to roofs, walls, foundations, basements, bathrooms, and other areas exposed to moisture or water. |
