M2 - Mon Sep 09, 10:23AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/g2h9dq/sand_and_gravel) has announced the addition of the "Sand & Gravel Mining in the US" report to their offering. A stronger foundation: Recovery in the construction markets will push the industry into growth Despite severe contractions during the recession, the industry has already begun to climb out of its trough. The recovery in the housing construction market will support the industry's expansion throughout the next five years. Growth in the nonresidential market will also boost demand for the industry's products. Governmental infrastructure investment, though, is expected to slow. With profit margins growing, many operators will become vertically integrated, which will limit the number of new companies entering the industry. This industry comprises firms involved in mining and quarrying sand (construction and industrial) and gravel, along with clays, and ceramic and refractory minerals. Industry activity may include the beneficiation of these minerals by washing, screening and otherwise preparing the mined sand, gravel and clays. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares. Companies Mentioned: Martin Marietta Materials, Inc.

Global Construction Aggregates Market Report - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017
M2 - Thu Aug 08, 10:39AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7ln3pc/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Construction Aggregates Market - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017" report to their offering. 'Global Construction Aggregates Market - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017' provides detailed market analysis, information, trends, issues and insights into the global construction aggregates market. The global construction aggregates market valued over US$99 billion in 2012, of which the Asia-Pacific region constituted a 42.5% share, making it the largest regional market for construction aggregates in the world. In the same year, Europe and North America were the second- and third-largest regional markets, representing respective shares of 26.9% and 20.8%. Continuing economic uncertainty in Europe and a gradual recovery in the US are expected to reduce these regional market shares. Growing economies in the Asia-Pacific, in particular China, India and Indonesia, are expected to reduce the market shares of Western regions, as the rapid development of infrastructure and other construction markets in these areas increases the demand for construction aggregates. The market shares of the European and North American regions are expected to reach 22.7% and 20% respectively in 2017, down from 2012, while the Asia-Pacific region is forecast to increase its share to 47.6% by 2017. Key Highlights - The global construction aggregates market valued over US$99 billion in 2012, of which the Asia-Pacific region constituted a 42.5% share, making it the largest regional market for construction aggregates in the world. - In terms of growth, the global construction aggregates market recorded a CAGR of 2.40% during the review period.

The majority of construction work in these countries will be limited to repairs and upgrades of existing infrastructure, and demand for construction aggregates will be less than in emerging nations. - Increasing traffic congestion in urban areas worldwide has forced governments to invest in mass transit projects such as metro railways. GCC nations, in particular, have earmarked large sums of money in the development of a rail network to connect national and regional locations. These developments are expected to drive demand for construction aggregates. - Stringent environmental and land use regulations in place in developed countries are expected to boost demand for recycled and secondary construction aggregates (waste-based aggregates) such as blast-furnace slag and crushed hydraulic concrete.
