By 2024, the global market capacity for dry-mixed mortar is expected to surpass 180 million tons, with China emerging as the core market, accounting for 45% of the total. The industry is exhibiting distinct developmental characteristics.
The product structure is upgrading towards the high-end market - special mortar has become the growth engine, with the annual compound growth rates of self-leveling and waterproof mortar reaching 8.7% and 9.2% respectively. By 2025, their market share has exceeded 35%. The penetration rate of ready-mixed mortar has increased rapidly, reaching 72% in new residential buildings, and dry-mixed mortar has achieved a high penetration rate of 69.4% in high-end fields such as prefabricated buildings.
Green and low-carbon is the core orientation - the substitution rate of industrial by-product-based cementitious materials has risen to 28%, and carbon emission intensity has decreased by about 23%. The trend of substituting machine-made sand for natural river sand is evident, with a penetration rate reaching 68.9% by 2025. Carbon footprint certification has become a key to market access.
Deep innovation in technology and models -- The coverage rate of smart manufacturing units has risen to 61%, and 47% of enterprises have deployed cloud-based order systems. Leading enterprises have shifted to integrated services of "materials + construction guidance", and the application rate of blockchain technology in quality traceability has reached 33%.
In the future, functional breakthroughs and globalization layouts will become key focuses. It is expected that self-repairing mortar and high-performance insulation mortar will be applied on a large scale by 2030, and China's share in the global specialty mortar market is expected to reach 48%.
