세계의 경량 골재 시장 예측(-2030년) : 유형별, 최종 용도 산업별, 지역별

The lightweight aggregates market size is projected to grow from USD 13.14 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 15.52 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.4%. The lightweight aggregates market has a bright future because of the growing demand for sustainable construction materials. Globally, governments are enforcing stricter environmental regulations. With rapid urbanization and increasing infrastructure projects, the demand for lightweight aggregates will rise. The construction industry is shifting toward green building certifications like LEED.

"Expanded clay is projected to be the third largest segment by type in lightweight aggregates market"

The expanded clay is the third largest product because of its properties such as excellent strength and insulation. It has a unique structure which makes expanded clay a strong and lightweight material. It is ideal for use in concrete production, road construction, and building insulation. Expanded clay's market position is its increasing use in green building projects and sustainable construction.

"Infrastructure is the second largest segment by end-use industry in lightweight aggregates market during forecast region."

Infrastructure is the second-largest end-use industry segment in the lightweight aggregates market because of the growing need for durable and cost-effective materials in large-scale projects. Lightweight aggregates help in lowering the stress on foundations and extend their lifespan. They have ability to resist temperature changes, moisture, and harsh weather conditions which makes them ideal for infrastructure projects in regions with extreme climates.

"Europe counts for the second-largest share in lightweight aggregates market by region"

Europe is the second-largest market for lightweight aggregates because of its strong focus on environmental regulations. Governments across Europe are promoting eco-friendly building materials to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency in construction. Europe has a well- established construction industry with investments in infrastructure projects. The lightweight aggregates market is growing in Europe due to the region's strong emphasis on recycling and circular economy initiatives.
