The concept of using green building materials is fast catching up pace across markets worldwide. Green materials have already forayed deep into the global construction industry and in the current scenario the segment is also one of the fastest growing of all building materials. As more people become aware of the benefits of this concept, demand for green building materials is increasing. Further, the fact that most of these materials are available domestically within any country gives way for the dependence on imports, which also is a contributing factor to the market’s growth. Taking the green concept a step forward in its endeavor are emerging technologies such as advanced insulation, dynamic windows and the like that are reckoned to be holding immense growth potential. New insulation technologies like phase-change materials and aerogels, with the capability of switching between dark and clear states in accordance with the shade of the sun, are forecast to grow further in importance.
The complete meltdown of the financial system created a massive distress in the real estate market with credit being totally withdrawn from this sector. Industrial and commercial properties witnessed stinging falls in occupancy rates, tenant demand, and rentals. The residential housing market similarly witnessed declining home ownership, new constructions, and eroding property values throughout 2009. Nevertheless, in 2010, the industry appeared to have limped out of the broken economy witnessing improvements in business environments and recovery in growth. Projected increases in public construction activity paved way for greater consumption of building materials. Resurgence in infrastructure spends, improvement in liquidity situation, softening of interest rates, continued urbanization, all helped growth drive back into fore. The strong growth for building materials markets in developing markets such as China and India propped up global growth patterns.
