The global concrete superplasticizers market is expected to grow at a moderate pace during the forecast period.

Ready-mix concrete is the largest application area for these superplasticizers.
Competitive vendor landscape
The global concrete superplasticizers market is one of the growing markets with the presence of major vendors globally. Key players operate in a highly competitive market. The vendors in the market focus on manufacturing products that comply with the fluctuating prices for raw materials from the petrochemical market.
“The major players have a vast geographic presence and have large production facilities located globally. They also operate capacities through strategic partnerships. New capacities are being established to ensure proximity and easy access to the fast-growing markets of China, India, and other countries of Southeast Asia,” says Ajay Adhikari, a lead metals and minerals research analyst from Technavio.
However, there are a sizeable number of large regional vendors that hold significant shares in the market. Furthermore, major vendors in the market seek to expand their geographic presence either through M&As or joint ventures as it gives them easy access to growth markets and dilutes the regional business risks.
