North America Shotcrete Equipment Market Outlook -2027
The North America shotcrete equipment market size was valued at $612.4 million in 2019, and is anticipated to generate $785.1 million by 2027. The market is projected to experience growth at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2020 to 2027.
Shotcrete is a method of applying concrete by spraying a stream of mixed concrete, sand and aggregates onto a substrate, conveyed pneumatically through a hose and water being added at the nozzle. The layer to be applied depends on the type of work to be done. This method is mainly used in mining, tunneling, underground construction, repair, and restoration works. Architectural structures can also be built because of its workability and negligible formwork advantages.
R&D activities are being conducted to further increase the scope and level of implementation along with improving its properties. Considering the advantages shotcrete offers, it can be used as a substitute to conventional concrete. Increase in the demand for sustainable buildings is expected to fuel the utilization of shotcrete for construction purposes. Domes, uncommon and unique architecture, and complex shaped construction can be easily constructed using shotcrete. The skilled personnel who are certified by various organizations are considered as experts in caring out complex frameworks.
The wet mix shotcrete process is the most widely used shotcrete spraying process till date. The advantages such as high flexibility and increased cohesion to the substrate offered by wet mix shotcrete makes it a more useful process for construction of swimming pools and water holding structures. Therefore, it is expected that wet mix shotcrete will be the first choice for the new entrants, because of its widespread use and benefits. The other ideal sector for investment is dry mix shotcrete, as it is used for repair and restoration of damaged structures along with vertical and overhead works. Dry mix shotcrete process is the best choice for projects, which have continuous or more halts.
The North America shotcrete equipment market is segmented on the basis of various parameters such as technique, system, application, and equipment. Depending on technique, the market is bifurcated into wet mix and dry mix. Based on system of spraying, it is classified into manual spraying and robotic spraying system. Further, the application segment is classified into underground construction, inground swimming pool, water retaining structure, protective coatings, and repair works. The equipment segment is divided into general equipment, auxiliary equipment, and special equipment.
Top players in the market are investing huge capital in R&D activities to develop enhanced products to cater to current demands. Some of the major players in the North America shotcrete equipment market are Mesa Industries, Inc (Airplaco and Gunite Supply), Cemen Tech Inc., SANY GROUP, CCS Group, LLC, RFI Construction Products, Cancrete Equipment Ltd., Reed Shotcrete Equipment, Blastcrete Equipment, LLC., Western Shotcrete Equipment, and Structural Shotcrete Systems, Inc.
