Geosynthetics Market: Overview

The market size for Geosynthetics was USD 9.5 billion in 2021, and it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8 percent during the forecast period. The growing demand for geosynthetics is owing to investments in infrastructural products and increasing global worries over waste and water management. Market growth is primarily driven by the growing population and urbanization associated with increasing industrial activities in the Asia Pacific and South America, which is expected to provide opportunities for manufacturers during the forecast period. Products in the technology field and the growing demand for sustainable products are opportunities for the geosynthetics market.

The availability of raw materials, such as Polypropylene(PP), on the performance of the improved plurality of petrochemical complexes of companies such as Chevron Phillips, ExxonMobil, Shell, and BP promotes market players for extended production. The factors mentioned above are anticipated to drive the demand for geosynthetic products in the U.S. over the forecast period. Geotextiles are used as banding systems in constructing ponds, streets, dams, and pipelines. In addition, these products are also used for developing railway networks as they facilitate the detachment of soil layers from the subsoil without limiting the underground water circulation.

Geonets and geocells are key in promoting vegetative growth and providing shore protection, preventing soil erosion. Moreover, the constant soil preservation projects in various economies, including Spain, South Africa, Canada, and India, are expected to drive the market over the forecast period. Excessive outflow casualties from canals have boosted the drainage concerns. Geosynthetics positively control seepage problems in irrigation and other development projects. In addition, they are used in the creation and construction of common embankment dams, channels, and slope security and in controlling seepage failures from channels and reservoirs.

Geosynthetics Market: COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 pandemic seriously disrupted the global construction sector in 2020, with projects being stopped due to lockdown conditions owing to the non-availability of workforces, supply chain upheavals, country-wide lockdowns, momentary closures of infrastructure projects, and limited availability of raw materials. Companies have witnessed lower demand for new office spaces, shops, and others, resulting in a decrease in revenue. However, due to the easing of the means by the government with preventive measures such as social distancing and reserve funds, the end-use industries are healing. Moreover, the construction sector was exempted from the lockdown conditions in a few countries, such as Australia, as it falls beneath basic services. In Indonesia,  preventative lockdown measures, restricted supply chains, and holds in infrastructure projects are major reasons for the downfall of the building industry in the country. The US construction industry was affected majorly due to the restricted availability of raw materials, as imports from other countries, such as China, were delayed due to the pandemic. However, different governments' stimulus package has permitted the countries to support the declining economy, which is also expected to support the construction industry and guide economic recovery post the COVID-19 problem by boosting infrastructural growth.

Geosynthetics Market: Drivers

Growth of the Geosynthetics  Market can be Attributed to Increasing  Investments in Waste  Management in Emerging Economies

Rapidly increasing population and urbanization are contributing to growing levels of solid and liquid wastes across the globe. Increasing environmental understanding increases demand for appropriate waste and water management projects. Geosynthetics are employed as landfill caps to stop the migration of fluids into landfills by reducing or destroying the post-closure years of leachate and associated treatment costs. Geosynthetics are widely used in different water management activities owing to the increasing public concerns about severe and widespread water pollution. Geosynthetics liner systems are utilized in waste treatment lagoons at wastewater treatment plants to save water resources, including lakes, rivers, ponds, aquifers, and reservoirs which are expected to boost the demand for geosynthetics during the forecast period.

Several Strategies by Key Players to Drive Market Growth

The key companies working in the industry are highly predisposed toward the adoption of various growth strategies, including capacity expansion, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical development, new product launches, and product creation to stay competitive in the marketplace; this is expected to positively impact significant market growth. Hence owing to the development and manufacturing of innovative solutions, the geosynthetics market is augmenting its growth over the forecast period. For instance, in June 2021, SOLMAX drafted TenCateGeosynthetics, the Netherlands-based provider of geosynthetics and industrial fabrics. The investment is expected to improve the innovation capabilities and global reach of the company. The acquisition is expected to bring more business opportunities for the company in containment and infrastructure applications in mining, transportation, energy, waste management, and civil engineering. Furthermore, in June 2019, SOLMAX is expanding its operations by launching a new geosynthetics facility in Nevada, US. The development is expected to bring a competitive advantage to the company through the development of innovative and more reliable products to cater to different end-use industries. Moreover, In February 2019, Strata System launched a new production facility in Gujarat, India. The company is expected to manufacture StrataGridgeogrid and HDPE geocells to cater to the rising demand for geosynthetic materials. The new structure is expected to have sufficient production ability to cater to the Indian geosynthetics market along with international exports.

Geosynthetics Market: Restraints

Fluctuating Raw Material Prices Due to Volatility in Prices of Crude Oil to Hamper Market Growth

The prices and availability of raw materials are the immediate factors that affect the prices of end products. Most raw materials required for geosynthetics (polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and ethylene propylene diene monomer) are powerless against fluctuations in crude oil prices. The rise or fall in crude oil prices directly impacts the prices of the raw materials required to manufacture geosynthetics. However, growing the pandemic, almost all countries have denied domestic and international travel. This has resulted in a significant reduction in the demand for fuel for transportation, which has also affected crude oil prices and hampered market growth.

Geosynthetics Market: Segment Overview

Geogridsto Dominate Market due to its Utilization in Railways

The market for geogrids grows in the market during the forecast period. Geogrids are increasingly used in railway and road infrastructure development for reinforcement of the structural base over soft soils on account of their outstanding bearing capacity. Moreover, geogrids are employed in retaining walls for reinforcement of railway abutments and bridges. Thus, the above factors are expected to bolster the market growth over the forecast period. Geonets are incorporated as detachment media in the group of landfill leachates, foundation wall systems in drainage, road and pavement drainage systems, and methane gas collection. The product's growing penetration in erosion management due to its characteristics of diverting down the surface runoff is likely to complement the segment growth.

Our Research Methodology

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.
