The global formwork market is expected to grow at CAGR of 1.9% to reach USD 6.03 billion by 2025.

Formwork is a name given to mould in which concrete is kept. It is usually made up of steel, timber, plastic, aluminium and others. It should possess enough strength so that it can tolerate the weight of wet concrete without any distortion. Once the concrete gains enough strength, the formwork is removed or it can be kept as it is in case of permanent solution. In upcoming years, the increase in expenditure on infrastructure development will stimulate the product demand across the globe. Also with the increase in growth of residential and commercial sectors, the demand for formwork is anticipated to increase. This product minimizes the time and cost required for the completion of construction work. The global industry is expected to rise by taking into account the vast use of simple and reusable molds.

Formwork is known for maintaining the quality of construction work while speeding up the work. The necessity to give support to newly constructed buildings is likely to boost the market growth. Additionally, saturation in urban population will generate strong demand for residential buildings, driving the industry growth. However, lack of flexibility and high maintenance cost are some of the restraints of this material, but its excellent strength to support concrete will accelerate the market in near future.
