DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/138511/precast_concrete_p) has announced the addition of the "Precast Concrete Products Market - UK 2009-2013" report to their offering.
The 2nd edition of the report 'Precast Concrete Building Products Market - UK 2009 -2013' Incorporates original input and primary research. The report represents an up to date and informed review of all sectors within the precast concrete building products market.
In recent years, the overall market for precast building products has been adversely affected by factors such as loss of share to competing products in certain sectors and depressed levels of activity in key markets. However, longer term market prospects appear more encouraging owing largely to product innovation, with particular respect to modern methods of construction, with the precast products industry very much at the forefront of this growing market.
The construction industry's drive towards sustainable development should also benefit the precast sector, due to the high levels of recycled materials used in some products, and precast concrete's high thermal and acoustic insulation properties.
Market Overview:
The overall market for precast concrete products in 2008 is estimated at around 2.1 billion, although this figure includes sales from products outside the scope of this report.
This report identifies and quantifies specific products within the broad categories of precast concrete production and includes dense, lightweight and aerated concrete blocks, precast concrete tiles (excluding flagstones), precast cladding and structural products for residential, commercial and industrial buildings and precast concrete for building or civil engineering.
Overall non-domestic output is currently forecast to decline by around 11% between 2008-10, though this figure reflects major variations in sector performance. In the medium-term, total non-domestic output is expected to begin a modest recovery in 2011, with moderate annual rates of growth currently forecast to 2013.
The key sectors which are likely to experience significant decline are offices, industrial and retail, though these will be partially offset by anticipated growth in education, infrastructure and health - though these growth' sectors are dependent on funding streams from Government and PFI sources being maintained. The Olympic Games development programme offers some light in the current gloom for precast concrete products such as cladding, flooring etc.
