Global chemical anchors market was valued at USD 870.8 millions in 2020. It is expected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 4.1%) between 2020 and 2028. Due to its superior performance, the market growth can be attributed to rising demand in the construction sector. Due to the COVID-19 global epidemic, market growth was slowed in H1 2020. This caused the temporary closing of many construction projects across multiple countries. The government's unlock programs will allow for the restarting of projects in 2020, with tighter restrictions and social distancing. This is expected to stabilize growth in the construction industry.
Due to the increasing investments in infrastructure, the U.S. will see a rise in demand for chemical anchors. According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, there are 231,000 bridges that need to be repaired and preserved. This will increase the demand for the product in the future.
For the manufacture of chemical anchors, epoxy acrylate and polyester are the main raw materials. The choice of chemical anchor is dependent on many factors such as the performance requirement, preference of consumers, and installation environment.
Pricing of products is largely determined by the total volume of raw materials used and minimum lot sizes. The raw material prices are also affected by resource availability and government policy.
Because of their superior properties, chemical anchors are used in most steel constructions, columns bases, and scaffold anchoring. The market is still being restricted by low awareness among contractors, especially in emerging economies, about the proper use of construction chemicals for structures.
The largest share, over 70% of global revenue in 2020, was attributed to injectable adhesive anchors. They are the most commonly used chemical anchors. Injection chemicals are used extensively in masonry, natural stone, rebar, and other applications. They are used for fixing steel dowels, handrails and staircases, as well as building facades, sound barriers, pipes and brackets.
Injectable adhesive anchors take four times longer to cure than mechanical anchors. Manufacturers are developing new resin formulations to reduce the curing time. This makes it an attractive option for both external and internal applications.
Capsule adhesive anchors can be used on concrete surfaces and are widely used in commercial and industrial construction. They are used primarily to anchor steel structures, cranes and elevators as well as industrial machinery. Capsule adhesive anchors are a great option for companies looking to increase their production capacity after a pandemic.
The largest share, 35.0%, was held by epoxy acrylate in 2020. Its key characteristics include high strength, quick curing, high load applications and resistance to corrosive and moist conditions.
Due to its popularity as an injection anchoring technology, polyester is expected to grow at 3.9% annually over the forecast period. This resin can be used for light to medium loads. It can also be used on concrete and hollow masonry surfaces.
Two-part epoxy bonded chemical anchors with a 1:1 ratio in normal and seismic conditions are available for cracking and uncracked concrete. These anchors can be used in structural applications as well as rebar connections that require high load-bearing capacities.
It is also ideal for high load applications because the bond it forms is stronger than the base material. The system is also centered on adhesion principles, which means that the base material is not subject to additional load stress. It is ideal for group anchoring, low compressive strength concrete, and close to the edge fixing.
In 2020, the infrastructure segment held the largest share at over 35.0% and is expected to grow the most over the forecast period. This segment is dominated by chemical anchors due to its need for superior-performing and robust products. This sector is also less affected by mechanical anchors due to its large application.
In 2020, a large portion of the market's revenue came from both commercial and residential sectors. Market growth is expected to be driven by rising construction spending in emerging countries. These countries' governments have made significant investments in infrastructures such as hospitals, offices, and housing societies.
Many industries have helped to create new manufacturing hubs in various countries. This has led to an increase in population and development of cities. These factors have a significant impact on the growth and demand for chemical anchors, both residential and commercial.
Both the growing global population and increased migration have contributed to an increase in residential building construction. According to the UN's International Migrant Stock 2019, approximately 272 million international migrants accounted for 3.5% of global population. To accommodate the increasing number of migrants living in urban areas, residential building constructions are on the rise, which means that chemical anchors are needed.
Europe was the dominant market, with a greater than 30% share in 2020. The region is expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period. The economic recovery after COVID-19 lockdown is responsible for the growth of the regional markets. Construction activities in residential and infrastructural areas are expected to rebound in 2021.
The pandemic-affected countries of France, Italy, the U.K. and the U.S. are expected to rebound. This will allow for strong demand for chemical anchors. According to the Construction Products Association in the U.K., construction output will rise by 12.9% and 5.2% respectively in 2021, which is expected in order to increase product demand.
In North America, chemical anchors have been gaining prominence over the last few years, particularly in infrastructural and commercial activities. The market is expected to grow due to increased awareness about chemical anchors and growing infrastructure investment in this area.
Canada's construction industry is set to grow due to rising population, increasing urbanization and an increased immigration rate. The country's increasing number of service-providing companies is expected to drive the demand for office space, which will in turn fuel commercial construction.
Chemical anchor manufacturers are now focusing on acquisitions to increase their product range and geographic presence. EJOT, a Finnish manufacturer of anchoring and fastening technology, announced in January 2017 that it had acquired Sormat. EJOT sought to increase its product line of building fasteners and strengthen its presence on the Finnish market with this acquisition.
To gain consumers' trust, manufacturers have been focusing on quality certification. For instance, MungoBefestigungstechnik AG has quality certification of Swiss Safety Center AG and ISO 9001:2015. Chemfix Products Ltd. holds various quality certifications, such as ISO-9001 and ISO-14001. The following are some of the major players in the global market for chemical anchors:
