Polished Concrete Market Research, 2031
The global polished concrete market was valued at $2.2 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach $3.7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2022 to 2031. Rise in demand for aesthetic and durable flooring solutions, coupled with advancements in polishing techniques and equipment, is significantly driving the growth of the polished concrete market. Modern consumers and businesses prioritize flooring options that combine visual appeal with long-lasting performance, that make them polished concrete a preferred choice for various applications.
Introduction
Polished concrete is a high-performance flooring solution created by mechanically grinding, honing, and polishing a concrete surface to achieve a smooth, glossy, and refined finish. This process involves the use of progressively finer abrasives and often incorporates chemical densifiers to enhance durability and hardness. Known for its aesthetic appeal, low maintenance requirements, and exceptional resistance to wear and stains, polished concrete is a sustainable and cost-effective option for residential, commercial, and industrial applications, offering a modern and versatile alternative to traditional flooring materials.
Market Dynamics
Polished concrete is created by physically honing, polishing, and grinding a concrete floor with bonded abrasives to smooth up the surface. After that, it is altered for each cut until the appropriate level of look is obtained. In this procedure, a penetrant substance known as a hardener is also utilized. After penetrating the concrete, the concrete hardener triggers a chemical process that hardens and dust-proofs the surface. Concrete polishing involves processing the surface over several steps using progressively finer grinding instruments.
One of the main reasons for the increase in demand for polished concrete is the strong demand for the construction of hotel flooring and other commercial structures. This is primarily due to the several benefits of polished concrete, which include a good visual appeal for floors and resistance to sliding and wear and tear from heavy foot traffic. Significant growth in demand is projected both in the Asia-Pacific region as well as the Middle East and Africa. The demand for polished concrete is likely to rise as a result of considerable investments in housing developments and rapid industrialization in these developing countries. A building's or facility's increased aesthetic appeal is anticipated to fuel the demand for polished concrete market size.
The cost of the raw materials and energy used to manufacture polished concrete is volatile, and this tendency is expected to continue during the forecast period. The cost of raw materials could increase due to fluctuations in the price of crude oil and petroleum products, which would subsequently increase the cost of cement, sealants, and adhesives used in polished concrete. As a result, the cost of these components has a direct impact on the cost of polished concrete. Vendors boost the price of their product's profit margins in reaction to rising raw material costs, limiting the potential of the polished concrete market share to grow.
During the forecast year, there will be a surge in the number of redevelopment and renovation projects in non-residential facilities. The structures of their establishments are also being renovated by hotel and resort owners in an effort to increase their customers and improve the accommodation experience. For instance, JW Marriott debuted a new hotel in Canberra, Australia, in September 2019. The hotel has polished concrete flooring, which further improves the visual appeal of the floors, and it has the latest design accents. Furthermore, a rise in investments from industry players in the residential construction and retail sectors is projected to hasten the use of polished concrete.

The global polished concrete market size is segmented by product, method, construction type, end-use, and region. By product, the market is sub-segmented into densifiers, sealer & crack filler, and conditioner. By the method, the market is sub-segmented into dry and wet. By construction type, the market is classified into new construction and renovation. By end use, the market is classified into residential and non-residential. By region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The polished concrete market is segmented into Product, Method, Construction Type, and End-Use.
By product, the densifiers sub-segment dominated the polished concrete market in 2021. On top of the concrete slab, concrete densifiers is utilized as chemical hardener. The densifiers are used in the modification stage of slab polishing. These concrete densifiers increase the density of the slab's surface by filling its pores. Manufacturers are employing cutting-edge tactics to take a big portion of the market. For example, W.R. Meadows' Induroshine, a green concrete grinding, and polishing densifier is used to polish concrete flooring systems. This densifier is extremely long-lasting and VOC-free. The Indochine densifiers offer the flooring a dense, resilient, and visually pleasant appearance. This densifier is utilized in a range of applications, including shopping center floors, airports, schools, museums, stadiums, and warehouses.
The sealer & crack sub-segment is projected to be the fastest growing during the forecast period. For making the flooring more durable, the sealer and crack filler significantly increase the value of the polished concrete. Crack filler and sealer can be used in environments where the temperature swings a lot. As a result, polished concrete sealer and crack filler can be used in industrial and commercial settings, as well as on the exterior of homes. During the forecast period, this aspect may have a substantial impact on the polished conditioner market growth.
By method, the dry sub-segment dominated the polished concrete market in 2021. Higher shine, more hardening and condensing of the floor, and its effectiveness in both wide regions and small sections are all contributing factors to the polished concrete market growth. Using industrial-sized polishing machinery, the concrete surface is ground for the dry concrete polishing procedure. Different abrasive polishing discs are required for each stage of the process, frequently combining diamond grit with coarser textures for early stages and finer ones to achieve the desired shine. All these factors are predicted to boost polished concrete market share and raise demand for dry polished concrete.
By construction type, the new construction sub-segment dominated the global polished concrete market share in 2021. Due to the increase in demand for new construction projects such as warehouses, office buildings, and residential homes, it is projected that the new construction sub-segment of the polished concrete market size would experience rapid expansion. For instance, in the U.S., which is renowned for its burgeoning infrastructure and construction projects, $20,000 million was invested in Hudson Yards' construction in New York. One of the largest construction projects in Chelsea and Hudson Yards. In the next years, a number of these new construction projects are anticipated to boom the global polished concrete industry.
By end use, the non-residential sub-segment dominated the global polished concrete market share in 2021. Due to the strong demand for polished concrete from hospitals, restaurants, commercial complexes, and other locations, the non-residential sub-segment is anticipated to have the largest market share in the global industry. For example, polished concrete has a brilliant luster, a glossy appearance, outstanding performance, and long-lasting durability. During the projected period, these advantages are anticipated to fuel the polished concrete market growth of the non-residential polished concrete sub-segment.
By region, the North America dominated the global market in 2021. The revenue increase is attributed to reasons such as technological improvements and expansion of the construction and building sectors, rising demand for lustrous and attractive flooring systems in suburban buildings, and high demand for the construction of logistic hubs. The e-commerce industry's rapid developments have raised North America's need for additional logistical hubs and warehouses. To attract top e-commerce corporations like Amazon and Home Depot, for instance, The Atlanta Business Chronicles developers in the metro Atlanta area have constructed 18 million square feet of warehouse space. In the end, all these factors will influence polished concrete demand in North America.
