Aggregates Market Drivers

• People are increasingly relocating closer to towns and cities to take advantage of privileged social and economic services and benefits in both emerging and developed countries. These include social and economic advantages such as better housing, business opportunities, transportation, health care, education, and sanitary conditions. This usually aids in the development of land for commercial buildings, social and economic support structures, transportation infrastructure, and residential structures.
• One of the major factors driving up demand for such products is the government's various infrastructure projects and maintenance initiatives. Governments seek good infrastructure because it facilitates trade, fuels industry, connects workers to jobs, gives hope to suffering communities, and protects the country from an increasingly volatile natural environment.

Aggregates Market Restraints

• High transportation costs of construction aggregates are likely to limit their market growth. Transportation costs account for roughly half of the total administrative expense for building aggregates. As a result, the market for construction aggregates is expected to be constrained by high transportation costs during the projection period. Furthermore, due to strict zoning regulations and restrictions on aggregate extraction in densely populated areas, aggregate market growth is expected to be slower. Obtaining clearance for a mining site is a time-consuming and difficult procedure that could take many years due to environmental rules, zoning laws, and land development laws.
