Cobblestone Market Research, 2031
The global cobblestone market size was valued at $7.64 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach $12.44 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5% from 2022 to 2031.
A natural building material called cobblestone is made up of little round stones that are used to pave roads, streets, and structures. These stones are joined together using mortar, a paste. These stones are employed in the construction of cemeteries, churches, schools, industries, smokehouses, stagecoach taverns, businesses, and churches. The use of natural building materials is increasing popularity as the construction industry becomes more sustainable.
The construction industries in the U.S. and India are anticipated to develop more quickly than those in China, according to the Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics research on Global Construction 2030. By 2030, the number of construction building globally is anticipated to increase by almost 85% by 2030. The greatest consumer of cobblestone and marble is the building and construction sector. The use of these commodities in emerging nations has dramatically increased as a result of rapid urbanization and industrialization. The two countries with the largest exports of these goods are China and India. The majority of the imported granite is processed in China, and the finished goods are then exported to other countries.
Moreover, increase in the construction sector such as residential and non-residential buildings, is expected to drive the cobblestone market. In addition, government investments in renovation and new construction is another factor to drive the cobblestone market growth.
On the basis of type, the natural cobblestone segment generated the largest revenue in 2021, due to increase in consumption of exterior and interior materials in the building and rise in demand from the construction industry. Globally, India is the largest producer of natural stones and has long been leading in granite production and granite exports over the decades. Rise in demand for natural stone such as cobblestone from residential and commercial sectors drives the market growth.
On the basis of construction, the new construction segment accounted for the highest revenue in the global market in 2021 owing to the rise in demand for cobblestones for flooring in commercial buildings, such as shopping centers and big complexes. Cobblestones are available in a variety of textures and colors. Thus, these stones provide an esthetic and appealing look to the buildings.
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) rapidly spread across various countries and regions in 2019, causing an enormous impact on lives of people and the overall community. It began as a human health condition and has now become a significant threat to global trade, economy, and finance. The COVID-19 pandemic halted production of many products in the cobblestone market, owing to lockdowns. Furthermore, the number of COVID-19 cases is expected to reduce in the future with the introduction of the vaccine for COVID-19 in the market. This has led to the reopening of indoor flooring companies at their full-scale capacities. This is expected to help the market recover by mid of 2022. After COVID-19 infection cases begin to decline, equipment & machinery producers must focus on protecting their staff, operations, and supply networks to respond to urgent emergencies and establish new methods of working.
On the basis of region, Asia-Pacific registered the highest revenue in 2021, owning to a rise in infrastructure activity in the region. Moreover, growing construction activities owing to rapid urbanization & industrialization is estimated to boost the demand for natural stones for flooring, wall cladding, memorial arts, civil works, and others. Government initiatives in China in the expanding construction sector are expected to provide growth opportunities in this country. For instance, in November 2020, the central government of China has set a goal of having 70% of new safe building construction by 2022 according to its own standards. Hence, these investments in the construction sector are expected to increase the demand for cobblestone due to its scratch-resistant, and water-resistant feature, and therefore is expected to surge the market growth.
