Cementing Additives Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Type (Cement Retarders, Dispersant, Defoamers, Fluid Loss Additives, Others), By Application (Oil & Gas, Construction), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Cementing Additives Market Size:

Cementing Additives Market is expected to grow at a 5.38% CAGR, achieving USD 33.380 billion by 2030 from USD 25.686 billion in 2025.

The growing number of firms and the thriving real estate industry are the key reasons behind the sector's expansion. Future smart innovations in the building industry are driving the cementing additives market growth. Because of their ability to increase strength, increase friction, reduce water, retard, waterproof, and have other features, cement, and concrete additives are highly sought after in the building and construction sectors. Moreover, the infrastructure industry is growing as a result of higher spending on urban marketing, regional business plans, and business plans. For instance, in India, the US$ 1.3 trillion Gati Shakti national master plan for infrastructure has been one of the major initiatives in implementing systemic and practical reforms in the field.

Cementing Additives Market Growth Drivers:

• Increased demand from the construction sector

Cement has several different features, including resistance to moisture, ease of workability, and the ability to provide masonry structure strength. It is mostly employed as a binder in concrete. Therefore, cement is essential for building bridges, homes, hospitals, and other structures. Consequently, to produce high-performance cement admixture, the cement industries use grinding aids and sodium gluconate, which helps to extend the workability and life of cement additives. Cement grinding aids have the potential to significantly lessen the occurrence of electrostatic adsorption during the grinding process. Grinding aids are an essential auxiliary raw material in cement plants all over the world which increases the demand and production of cement. For instance, India's demand for cement was predicted to increase by up to 12% annually in 2022 due to the government's emphasis on infrastructural development and the need for rural housing. Further, as per the United States Geological Survey, the production of cement in the United States increased from 89,000 metric tons in 2020 to 92,000 metric tons in 2021

 

Cementing Additives Market Geographical Outlook:

• It is projected that the cementing additives market in the USA will grow steadily. 

A cementing additive is a substance applied in cement slurry to modify its behavior, compressive strength, water & wear resistance, and durability. The additives reduce the cement hydration speed thereby improving the overall thickening owing to which they are majorly used in the construction and oil & gas sectors. The growing construction expenditure and implementation of new construction & infrastructure projects in the USA are acting as a major driving factor for the cementing additives market demand in the country. For instance, according to the U.C Census Bureau, in August 2023, total construction spending at a seasonally adjusted rate stood at US$1,983.470 billion which signified a 7.4% increase in the August 2022 figure of US$1,847.285 billion. Moreover, as per the same source, the total construction spending in the first eight months of 2023 witnessed a 4.2% growth over the same period in 2022.

• Booming oil well drilling and investments

The booming oil well drilling and investments to bolster the same have paved the way for future cementing additives market growth. For instance, according to the U.S Energy Information Administration, in 2021, the total strength of horizontally drilled oil wells stood at 166,160 which represented a significant increase of 67.8% over 2014’s figure of 99,000. Furthermore, various providers of cementing additives are establishing labs & facilities in the USA to optimize the growing demand for such substances.

Cementing Additives Market Products Offered by Key Players

To produce cement at a reduced cost and with better performance, GCP Applied Technologies Inc. offers cement additives, TAVEROTM VM grinding aids, and OPTEVATM HE quality improvers. Cement additives called OPTEVATM HE quality improvers offer choices for increasing early (HE) strength and are especially useful for difficult cements. Alternatively, TAVEROTM VM grinding aid additives improve cement performance by offering greater strengths and faster setting times, while also helping to stabilize vertical roller mills (VM) during production by lowering the need for water injection and cement pre-hydration.
