Status Of Global And Chinese Building Waterproof Material Industry in 2023

First, building waterproof material industry definition and classification

Waterproof material is an important functional material of building. Building waterproof material as a building maintenance structure, is used to prevent rain, snow, groundwater penetration and air moisture, steam and other harmful gases and liquids erosion of the building materials. In the past, China mainly used asphalt felt for waterproofing. With the increasing attention paid to waterproofing, asphalt felt products with high energy consumption and high pollution have been gradually replaced by new waterproof materials. At present, the domestic building waterproof materials are mainly divided into waterproof coil and waterproof coating two categories, including waterproof coil polymer modified asphalt coil and synthetic polymer coil two main categories, waterproof coating according to the main composition of the different, can be divided into solvent-based coatings and water-based coatings two major categories.

Second, building waterproof material industry policy

With the continuous introduction of new regulations at the policy end to standardize the development of the building waterproof material industry, eliminate backward productivity, promote industry structural adjustment and industrial upgrading, the improvement of industry standards will further compress the living space of non-standard small enterprises, and actively layout environmental protection materials, product quality, and large enterprises with strong research and development capabilities have advantages.

Third, building waterproof material industry status

1. Global

So far, building waterproof material technology has been basically developed and mature. According to statistics, in 2022, the global production of building waterproof materials is about 9.769 billion square meters, and the demand is about 9.736 billion square meters. From the perspective of regional distribution, the global building waterproof material market in 2022 is mainly concentrated in Asia Pacific, North America and Europe, and the three regions account for 85.57% of the total market. In Europe and the United States, building waterproof materials are mainly waterproof coils. The flat roof in the United States market is mainly polymer waterproof coil, the slope roof is mainly glass fiber tire asphalt shingles, and the Europe is mainly modified asphalt waterproof coil.

2. China

1) Market size and regional structure

Over the past years, benefiting from the rapid development of infrastructure and real estate, the scale of the building waterproof material industry has rapidly increased. Data show that in 2022, the market size of China's building waterproof materials will be about 118.75 billion yuan, a decrease of 5.52%. Influenced by regional natural environment, economic development level, construction industry operation status and other factors, China's building waterproof material consumption has a certain regional characteristics, among which East China is the largest building waterproof material consumer market in China.

2) Supply and demand

From the perspective of production, the output of China's building waterproof material industry increased from 1.356 billion square meters in 2012 to 3.457 billion square meters in 2022, with a CAGR of 9.81%; In terms of demand, the demand for building waterproof materials increased from 1.353 billion square meters in 2012 to 3.43 billion square meters in 2022, with a CAGR of 9.75%.
