콘크리트 배치 플랜트 시장 규모는 최근 급속히 확대되고 있습니다. 2024년에 29억 8,000만 달러로 평가되었고 2025년에는 35억 4,000만 달러로, CAGR 18.8%로 성장이 전망되고 있습니다. 지금까지의 성장은 도시화의 진전과 인구 증가, 인프라 프로젝트의 확대, 레디믹스트 콘크리트 수요 증가, 건설 분야에 대한 정부 투자 증가, 콘크리트 혼합 기술의 진보 등이 요인으로 생각됩니다.
콘크리트 배치 플랜트 시장 규모는 향후 수년간 급속한 성장이 예상됩니다. 2029년에는 69억 8,000만 달러에 달하고, CAGR은 18.5%를 나타낼 전망입니다. 예측기간에 있어서의 성장은 주택 및 상업건설활동 증가, 신흥경제국에서의 인프라 개발의 확대, 도시개발을 향한 정부 시책의 강화, 지속 가능한 건설 수법의 보급 확대, 고품질로 내구성이 있는 콘크리트에 수요 증가 등이 요인으로 됩니다. 예측 기간의 주요 동향으로는 자동화 및 디지털 제어 시스템의 통합 강화, 배합 설계 최적화를 위한 인공지능(AI) 활용 확대, 이동식 모듈형 배치 플랜트 개발, 실시간 감시와 예지보전 도입, 친환경적이고 에너지 효율적인 기술 채택 등을 들 수 있습니다.
향후 몇 년 동안 주택 건설 활동 증가가 콘크리트 배치 플랜트 시장의 성장을 이끌 것으로 예측됩니다. 주택건설에는 단독주택, 아파트, 집합주택의 건설이 포함되어 있으며, 이들은 레디믹스트 콘크리트와 효율적인 배치 솔루션 수요를 견인하는 주요 부문을 형성하고 있습니다. 이 분야는 도시화의 가속화와 미국 주요 도시의 주택 투자 증가에 따라 확대되고 있으며, 적시에 고품질의 콘크리트 공급에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있습니다. 콘크리트 배치 플랜트는 현장 또는 인근에서 안정적인 콘크리트 생산을 제공함으로써 이러한 수요에 부응합니다. 이를 통해 프로젝트의 조기 완료, 자재 폐기물 감소 및 건설 품질 향상을 실현할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어 2024년 9월 미국 정부기관인 의회예산국(CBO)이 발표한 예측에 따르면 2024년부터 2033년까지의 주택착공건수는 연간 평균 159만호가 될 전망입니다. 이는 지난 10년간 평균 착공 건수인 연간 130만호에 비해 10년 단위로 상당한 증가를 보여줍니다. 따라서 주택 건설 부문의 성장은 콘크리트 배치 플랜트 시장의 확대를 이끌고 있습니다.
콘크리트 배치 플랜트 시장의 주요 기업은 선진적인 자재 운반 기술에 주력함과 동시에 지속 가능한 하이브리드형 콘크리트 배치 솔루션의 개발을 진행하고 있습니다. 이에 따라 운용 효율의 향상, 배출량의 삭감, 현장에서의 유연성 강화를 도모하고 있습니다. 하이브리드형 콘크리트 배치 플랜트는 배터리 에너지 저장과 디젤 발전기를 조합한 것으로, 주로 저장된 청정 에너지로 가동하고, 수요 피크시에는 디젤을 백업으로 사용할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어, 2023년 10월에는 홀심 호주가 블루 다이아몬드 머시너리와 공동으로 배터리 구동식 이동형 콘크리트 배치 플랜트를 발표했습니다. 이러한 플랜트는 발전기의 가동시간 단축, 연료소비량 절감, 현장 이동성 향상을 실현하여 보다 신속하고 깨끗한 콘크리트 생산을 지원함과 동시에 현대인프라 프로젝트에서 지속가능하고 비용효율이 높고, 저배출 콘크리트 시스템에 대한 수요 증가에 대응하고 있습니다.

A concrete batching plant involves the design, manufacturing, and distribution of equipment used to mix concrete components such as cement, sand, water, and aggregates. These plants produce uniform, high-quality concrete for a wide range of construction projects and play a key role in supporting infrastructure and industrial development.
The key types of concrete batching plants are stationary concrete batching plants, mobile concrete batching plants, and compact concrete batching plants. Stationary concrete batching plants are permanent facilities installed at a fixed location to mix cement, aggregates, water, and additives for producing consistent concrete. The main components include aggregate batching systems, cement batching systems, water batching systems, and additive batching systems, with varying levels of automation such as fully automated concrete batching plants, semi-automated concrete batching plants, and manual concrete batching plants. These plants are used by various end-users, including residential construction, commercial construction, and infrastructure projects.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the construction sector, particularly in materials procurement and project costs. Higher duties on imported steel, aluminum, lumber, and machinery have driven up expenses for builders, contractors, and infrastructure developers, leading to increased project bids and delayed timelines. Construction equipment manufacturers face similar challenges, with tariffs on essential components and raw materials inflating production costs and squeezing margins. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs in international markets have curtailed exports of U.S.-made construction equipment and materials, further affecting profitability. The sector must now prioritize local sourcing, modular construction techniques, and supply chain diversification to control costs and ensure project viability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.
The concrete batching market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides concrete batching market statistics, including concrete batching industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the concrete batching market share, concrete batching market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the concrete batching industry. This concrete batching market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The concrete batching plant market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.98 billion in 2024 to $3.54 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing urbanization and population growth, expanding infrastructure projects, rising demand for ready-mix concrete, growing government investments in construction, and advancements in concrete mixing technology.
The concrete batching plant market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.98 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising residential and commercial construction activities, increasing infrastructure development in emerging economies, growing government initiatives for urban development, rising adoption of sustainable construction practices, and increasing demand for high-quality and durable concrete. Key trends in the forecast period include greater integration of automation and digital control systems, increasing use of artificial intelligence for mix design optimization, development of mobile and modular batching plants, implementation of real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, and adoption of eco-friendly and energy-efficient technologies.
Rising residential construction activity is expected to drive the growth of the concrete batching plant market in the coming years. Residential construction includes the building of single-family homes, apartments, and multi-family housing complexes, forming the key segment driving demand for ready-mix concrete and efficient batching solutions. This sector is expanding as urbanization accelerates and housing investments increase in major U.S. cities, resulting in higher demand for timely, high-quality concrete delivery. Concrete batching plants help meet this demand by providing consistent, on-site or nearby concrete production, ensuring faster project completion, reduced material waste, and improved construction quality. For example, in September 2024, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), a US-based government agency, reported that housing starts averaged 1.59 million per year for the 2024-2033 forecast period, compared to a 10-year average of 1.30 million per year previously, reflecting a significant increase in starts on a rolling decade basis. Therefore, the rising residential construction sector is driving the expansion of the concrete batching plant market.
Key companies in the concrete batching plant market are focusing on advanced material handling technologies and developing sustainable and hybrid concrete batching solutions to improve operational efficiency, reduce emissions, and enhance on-site flexibility. Hybrid concrete batching plants combine battery energy storage with diesel generators, allowing operation primarily on stored clean energy while using diesel as backup during peak demand. For instance, in October 2023, Holcim Australia, in collaboration with Blue Diamond Machinery, launched a battery-powered mobile concrete batching plant. These plants offer reduced generator runtime, lower fuel consumption, and easier on-site mobility, supporting faster and cleaner concrete production and meeting the growing demand for sustainable, cost-efficient, and low-emission concrete systems in modern infrastructure projects.
In August 2025, Silvi Materials, a US-based provider of ready-mix concrete and construction materials, acquired Eagle Rock Concrete for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enhances Silvi Materials' presence in the Southeastern U.S. market by adding Eagle Rock Concrete's established batching operations and logistics network to its portfolio. Eagle Rock Concrete is a US-based ready-mix concrete producer operating nine plants.
