MARKET DYNAMICS

KEY DRIVERS

  • Rising demand for autoclaved aerated in the construction industry

To strengthen the building's strength and durability, there is a growing need for the product. For instance, bricks and blocks made of autoclave-aerated concrete provide a strong architectural foundation and aesthetic appeal. As a result, the item is frequently utilized in commercial establishments, museums, and smart airports. Complex constructions can be cast using bricks and blocks of autoclave-aerated concrete. Extreme tensile strength, durability, and damage are made possible by this distinctive construction. By enabling flexible construction, autoclaved aerated concrete blocks and bricks are useful for cutting-edge buildings.

RESTRAIN

  • Environmental impacts of harmful building material

The construction industry has benefited from the usage of products, but growth is hampered by the emissions brought on by the production of goods. Portland cement, which makes up the majority of the concrete blocks, emits enormous volumes of carbon dioxide, which causes pollution of the soil, water, and air. Despite environmental concerns, the development of improved building materials was responsible for the global market's sluggish expansion.

OPPORTUNITY

  • The demand for sustainable concrete blocks and bricks

  • Growth in the construction industry

Bricks and concrete blocks are considered to be vital materials in the construction sector. A maker of a product has a huge chance to produce products in new and varied sizes using improved raw materials. Manufacturing techniques that release a lot of carbon dioxide have been outlawed in many nations, including the US and the UK. As a result, there was a huge opportunity for both new and established product producers to set up eco-friendly concrete block and brick manufacturing, which might increase product demand globally.

CHALLENGES

  • Switching to alternative materials such as wood or steel

  • Fluctuating prices of concrete blocks and bricks

Prices of concrete blocks and bricks depend on various factors such as the cost of raw materials, such as cement and sand, varying demand during periods of economic growth or recession, supply chain disruption, and others.

When the prices of concrete blocks and bricks change, contractors and builders may find it difficult to budget for their projects. This can result in delays and cancellations, harming the market for certain commodities.

IMPACT OF RUSSIAN UKRAINE WAR

Global construction projects have been hampered by the intensifying war between Russia and Ukraine and the ensuing U.S. and international sanctions against Russia. Due to this, the main building industry has declined. The building materials market was where the Russia-Ukraine war's effects on the construction industry were most noticeable. Sharp price rises for building supplies, made worse by scarcities. a departure of conscripted Ukrainian workers, an increase in labor costs, a lengthening of delivery times, market unpredictability, and a disruption of supply and demand linkages.

IMPACT OF ONGOING RECESSION

The recession impacts the construction industry negatively. As of March 2022, the price of essential resources like steel and cement had increased by more than 20% annually. The majority of the building cost depends on cement, bricks and block, and steel materials. Given that these materials make up two-thirds of the overall cost of building, developers will be forced to raise prices as a result of increased material costs.  In November 2022, the supplier's price index for brick production increased by 15% from the previous month.

14. Conclusion

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
