Hollow Concrete Blocks Market to 2021 Growth Rate, Demands, Status and Market Share By Application

Global hollow concrete blocks market is segmented on the basis of product type, application, and geography. Concrete blocks have core void area larger than 25% of the gross area. As such, they are better known as hollow concrete blocks. Hollow concrete blocks are substitutes for conventional bricks and stones in building construction. This block is a type of building material generally used in both - commercial and residential industries.


The blocks mentioned above are made from water, cement, sand, and aggregate, though exact formulae can differ. Hollow concrete blocks are lighter than bricks, easier to place, and also prove to be frugal with respect to base cost and consumption of cement. When compared to conventional bricks, hollow concrete blocks offer the benefits of faster speed of construction, uniform quality, lower labour involvement, and greater durability. As such, hollow concrete hollow concrete blocks are being used extensively in the construction activities.


Some patterns of hollow concrete blocks are shaped generally like the number eight (8) with squared-off corners and typically measure 16 inches long by 8 inches tall by 8 inches deep. In construction sites builders use hollow concrete blocks to construct floors, walls, and the other structural surfaces inside and outside a home. They are also used to construct footers and foundations to support a building and evenly distribute the load of the building.

Majority of the hollow concrete block structures are constructed using mortar and also need steel reinforcement for adding support and strength. The factors that drive the growth of the hollow concrete blocks market (apart from the benefits mentioned above) are rapid execution of work, increase in floor area, better insulation properties, decrease in construction cost, and good bonding of mortar & plaster. Hollow concrete blocks are used for interior walls, panel walls, exterior load bearing walls, columns, retaining walls, and compound walls.
