Prefabricated Building Market Forecast 2023 - 2031

Market Overview :

Consegic Business Intelligence analyzes that the prefabricated building market is growing with a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period (2023-2031), and the market is projected to be valued at USD 266.64 Billion by 2031 and USD 190.74 Billion in 2023 from USD 184.47 Billion in 2022.

Market Definition :

A prefabricated building is manufactured and constructed using prefabrication. It consists of factory-made components or units that are transported and assembled on-site to form the complete building. The buildings with different components such as walls, roofs, and floors are manufactured in a factory or a manufacturing plant. The components are fully or partially assembled in a factory and then transferred to a site. This method of building is preferred due to its fast turnaround, cost efficiency, and reusability. Certain common applications of prefabricated buildings include office spaces, construction facilities, medical camps, apartment blocks, and others. It is more efficient than conventional on-site construction as manufacturing through a production line is much more controlled. These buildings are widely demanded due to the growing need for housing and commercial spaces, coupled with standardization of construction and building codes.

Prefabricated Building Market Dynamics

Drivers :

  • Government initiatives in the infrastructure and construction sector is driving the market growth.

    Prefabricated construction is a method of building that involves manufacturing components of a building off-site in a factory, then transporting and assembling them on-site. The government initiatives and investments in the infrastructure and construction sector, especially in emerging nations, are boosting the growth of prefabricated buildings. Governments of different nations have been laying out different schemes and initiatives for infrastructure projects globally. For instance, according to an article by Make in India in 2021, under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, an initiative by the Government of India, houses will be constructed with eco-friendly technology and families will get central assistance to enhance their existing houses or construct new houses. The Government has also proposed a new scheme which is Housing for All, under the same initiative for the urban areas. Furthermore, according to a report by India Brand Equity Foundation, in 2022, the Government of India has allowed FDI of up to 100% for townships and settlements development projects. Hence, increasing government initiatives and schemes for better infrastructure and improved construction sector help to boost the demand for the prefabricated building market.

  • Increasing demand for modular construction is boosting the market growth.

    Prefabricated building materials are largely incorporated into modular construction projects in educational institutes, residential spaces, airports, and others. Moreover, increasing disposable income, and growing private sector investment in construction is boosting the demand for modular constructions. Also, less construction time involved in modular constructions through fabricated materials and the cost efficiency of the products has been driving major demand for modular construction activities. Furthermore, prefabricated materials are widely used in ventilated thermal panels, bathroom pods, kitchenettes, and others owing to the materials being environmentally friendly, flexible, and causing minor site disruption. Also, certain features of the prefabricated materials such as viability for different designs, construction of distinctive homes, and others are acting as catalysts for increasing modular constructions, thus boosting the prefabricated building market. Hence, due to the aforementioned factors, the high demand for modular construction globally is increasing the growth of the prefabricated building market.

Restraint :

  • High transportation issues serve as a major restraint for market growth.

    The transportation and logistics costs involved in the movement of the prefabricated materials are high, and thus it proves to be a major restraint for market growth. The prefabricated materials are mostly made in rural areas due to the availability of cheap labor. Furthermore, transporting volumes of prefabricated materials is difficult and it requires special heavy vehicles and heavy-duty cranes. Thus, factors such as expensive transportation, risk of damaged delivery of goods, untimely delivery, and others serve as major restraints for the growth of the prefabricated building market. For this reason, high transportation issues is acting as a restraint for hampering the market growth.

Opportunities :

  • Growing infrastructure investments is expected to propel the market growth.

    The increasing infrastructure investments, especially in commercial real estate, are expected to boost the growth of the prefabricated building market in the forecast period. Also, rising concerns about construction waste and the promotion of green buildings is boosting the market growth. Furthermore, the wide usage of prefabricated materials in commercial buildings coupled with the increasing commercial sector globally is driving the growth of the prefabricated building market. For instance, according to a recent report by the Indian Brand Equity Foundation in 2023, the Indian real estate market is expected to increase to around USD 1 trillion in 2030. Hence, due to increasing infrastructure investments and growing commercial industry, the market for prefabricated buildings is expected to flourish significantly in the forecast period.

Market Segmentation :

By Material Type :

The material type segment is categorized into metal and non-metal. In 2022, the metal segment accounted for the highest market share in the prefabricated building market. The metal segment is further bifurcated into steel, aluminium, and others. Steel is the most widely used material owing to its high strength and durability. Steelwork is widely demanded as it forms the skeleton frame of a building. Steel framing is also associated with on-site design and helps in holding the structure of the building. Hence, due to the aforementioned factors, the metal segment is witnessing significant growth in the prefabricated building market.

Moreover, the non-metal segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period in the prefabricated building market. The non-metal segment is further bifurcated into concrete, glass, timber, wood, and others. Concrete is in high demand as it provides thermal insulation and improves the energy efficiency of the building. The wood material is also incorporated largely in applications such as floor structures, engineered joists, and others as it offers increased strength while remaining lightweight. Also, the recyclability feature of the material is further boosting the growth of the wood material. Hence, due to the aforementioned features, the non-metal segment is expected to flourish significantly in the forecast years.

By Dimension :

The dimension segment is categorized into skeleton, panel, cellular, and combined. In 2022, the panel segment accounted for the highest market of 33.27% in the prefabricated building market.
