The construction industry is growing in many countries across the world. Different projects are under construction,including buildings or structures.Concrete and asphalt are considered as the important components as they are made up of materials that provide strength to the building. Therefore, concrete and asphalt playa crucial role in the construction industry. The cleaning of concrete and asphalt structures needs to be done after certain period of time. Therefore, different types of chemicals are used to remove the stains and impurities from the concrete and asphalt structures.

Market scope and structure:

COVID-19 scenario analysis:

• The demand for concrete and asphalt cleaners is expected to decrease in 2020 due to low demand from the construction industry,owing to the lockdown imposed by governments of many countries.

• Demand for new construction materials has witnessed a massive negative shift since the coronavirus outbreak in December 2019, with manufactures and investors fearing an excessively receding economic growth.
• Travel prohibitions around the globe have affected the trade of construction materials. Thus, the supply and demand for construction materials have almost halted across the globe.
• Construction material manufacturing companies located in China are the major sufferers of the outbreak, owing to lockdown and unavailability of logistics in the country.
• The major hindrance for the global construction materials market comes from the orders of home quarantine by respective governments, which led to the discontinuation of production of construction materials.
• Decreased consumer demand and consumption has led toreduction and slow down ofsales of construction materials across the globe over the course of the current economic year.
• Therefore, the concrete and asphalt cleaners market is expected to be negatively affected in 2020.

Top impacting factors:Market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, and impact analysis

Cleaning chemicals are generally used as cleaners for concrete and asphalt cleaners. By using these chemical cleaners, stains present on the concrete and asphalt structures are removed.

Concrete and asphalt cleaners can remove graffiti on the surface, rust stains along with oil & grease stains. With increase in number of commercial buildings, such as shopping malls, hospitals, and educational institutes,there is high demand for concrete and asphalt cleaners to clean the concrete floors. This could be an important growth factor for the market.

There are different types of cleaning chemicals used to clean asphalt and concrete surfaces. These cleaning chemicals includespecialty cleaners, bacterial cleaners, alkaline cleaners, acidic cleaners, and pH neutral cleaners. The stains of acid soluble solutions are removed with the help of acidic cleaners while oil & grease stains from concrete surfaces are removed by alkaline cleaners. Alkaline cleaners also provideother application as they are capable of working as a neutralizing agent after the concrete surface gets cleaned by the acidic cleaner.Attributed to these factors, the demand for concrete and asphalt cleaners is expected to rise during the forecast period.
