Manufacturing Plant Shut Down Dents Industry Growth amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19-induced disruptions, including the temporary shutdown of manufacturing units, dented the growth prospect in 2020. For instance, Birlasoft Limited claimed that in 2020, construction output in North America was expected to reduce by 6.6%, leading to a loss of USD 122.4 billion in projects. Prominently, the shutdown of manufacturing plants in Germany and the U.S. hampered the industry outlook. Meanwhile, the adoption of green cement could add fillip to the industry growth.

Bullish Demand from Construction Sector to Propel Growth Potentials

Burgeoning population and urbanization have added fillip to the industry growth with the rising need for residential spaces, including private bungalows and apartments. Surging demand for amenities in residential spaces will augur well for the industry outlook. Besides, the rising penetration of commercial establishments, such as roads, airports, malls and industries, will bode well for leading companies gearing to expand their footfall. So much so that governments have upped investments in the infrastructural sector, fostering cement market growth during the forecast period. Prominently, increasing demand for precast products, including roof tiles, panels and blocks, will propel the industry growth. However, rigorous government regulations on carbon emissions from manufacturing plants could dent the industry prospect.

Stakeholders Emphasize Collaboration to Gain Ground

Leading companies are likely to inject funds into technological advancements, product launches, mergers & acquisitions and R&D activities. Moreover, leading players are expected to bolster their geographical footprint through innovations.
