Asphalt Market Insights:

The volume of asphalt market in the U.S. is anticipated to reach approximately 30 million tons by 2025. Demand for asphalt in highway and street applications is likely to yield strong gains due to increased government funding.

One of the major factors driving the growth of this market is advancement in transportation sector and infrastructural development. Some of the developing countries still face problem of unpaved roads that extend for considerable distances.

Unpaved roads accounted for 4.5 million kilometres, worldwide, out of which the U.S. accounted for more than 2 million kilometres. Other factors hindering the growth of this market are sustainability and environmental issues.

The chemical nature of asphalt enables it to stiffen immediately after application; its durability is reduced over time. The hardening of asphalt is favourable to a certain extent in order to minimize temperature susceptibility. These drawbacks of asphalt could lead in the replacement of concrete for asphalt, thereby limiting the market growth.

Product Insights:

Modernization of pavement technologies has been one of the latest trends gaining importance in the market. The demand for porous asphalt is anticipated to increase due to its cost effectiveness and ability to channelize water to flow in a desired way. Paving products accounted for more than half of the consumption of asphalt. It is anticipated to remain the dominant application over the years. The demand for asphalt in roofing products is expected to grow moderately due to increased expenditures on construction activity.

Application Insights:

Asphalt is mostly used in road construction as a glue or binder and when mixed with aggregate particles forms asphalt concrete. Other applications of asphalt include manufacturing of roofing felt and bituminous waterproofing products among others.

The global demand for asphalt is anticipated to increase on account of increasing construction activity particularly in the emerging economies such as China, India, and Brazil. Other applications which stimulate demand for asphalt include paving products such as asphalt cement, asphalt emulsions & cutback asphalt, roofing products such as asphalt shingles, roofing membranes modified bitumen, mopping asphalts, and standard asphaltic roofing felts among others.

End User Insights:

End users mainly include market segments such as residential buildings, non-residential buildings among others. The residential market is anticipated to witness rapid growth as substantial gains from stand-alone housing is likely to trigger the demand for asphalt shingles.

Moreover, the increasing application of recycled asphalt pavement is anticipated to result in growing demand for asphalt emulsions. Considering the non-residential market segment, increased expenditures on construction is expected to aid the demand for low-slope roofing products like roll roofing, modified bitumen membranes among others.Asphalt Market

Regional Insights:

North America is expected to command the global asphalt market over the forecast period. Expansion of the transport and construction sector in this region is the major contributor to the growth of asphalt market. These regions contribute to such high demand due to length of the U.S. and Canadian road networks. Moreover, the rise in the consumption of asphalt for roofing is also likely to stimulate growth in the global asphalt market over the forecast period.

Unpaved roads in the U.S. accounted for more than 2 million kilometres. Countries such as China, Canada, India, and Switzerland also have large stretches of unpaved roads. Urbanization and industrialization corresponding to the increased requirement ofpaved roads is likely to impactsale and consumption of asphalt in a positive way.
