Press Release

Cement Roofing Market is Expected to grow at a robust CAGR of 5.12% through 2030F

Cement Roofing Market is increasing due to rising demand for durable, cost-effective, and weather-resistant roofing solutions in rapidly growing residential and commercial construction sectors during the forecast period 2026-2030F.   


According to TechSci Research report, “Cement Roofing Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2020-2030F”, The Global Cement Roofing Market was valued at USD 44.87 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 61.09 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.12% during the forecast period.

The expansion of industrial and infrastructure development is a significant driver for the Cement Roofing Market. The global rise in industrial facilities, warehouses, and public infrastructure projects, such as airports, schools, and hospitals, has increased the demand for robust and scalable roofing solutions. Cement roofing materials, known for their strength and versatility, are widely used in large-scale projects requiring high load-bearing capacity and resistance to environmental stressors.

The growth of e-commerce and logistics has spurred the construction of warehouses, many of which utilize cement roofing for its durability and thermal regulation properties. In emerging markets, government-led infrastructure initiatives, such as China’s Belt and Road Initiative and Africa’s continental free trade area projects, are driving demand for cement roofing in public and industrial buildings. These materials are also favored for their ability to integrate with modern construction technologies, such as modular building systems, enhancing project efficiency. This driver is amplified by the need for resilient infrastructure in rapidly developing regions, ensuring cement roofing remains a cornerstone of industrial and public construction.

In 2024, global industrial construction spending reached USD1.8 trillion, with cement roofing used in 35% of warehouse projects. Infrastructure development in Asia and Africa saw a 25% increase in cement roofing adoption, with 45% of new public buildings, such as schools and hospitals, incorporating these materials for durability and cost efficiency..

Despite proven durability, fire resilience, and weather resistance, the Cement Roofing Market remains under-penetrated in many developing regions due to low consumer awareness, limited distribution networks, and entrenched preferences for traditional or low-cost materials. In rural and peri-urban areas, roof construction often prioritizes affordability over performance, leading clients to opt for thatch, corrugated metal, or low-grade tile options.

Based on End User, In 2024, the new construction segment dominated the Cement Roofing Market and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. This dominance is primarily driven by the global surge in infrastructure development and housing construction, especially in emerging economies experiencing rapid urbanization and population growth. Governments and private developers across regions such as Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East are investing heavily in large-scale residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects to address housing shortages, modernize infrastructure, and support economic expansion.

Cement roofing materials are increasingly being chosen in these new construction projects due to their durability, affordability, fire resistance, and ability to withstand extreme weather conditions. In the residential sector, low and middle-income housing developments favor cement roofing for its cost-efficiency and long-term performance, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas. In the commercial and industrial sectors, new warehouses, factories, and retail outlets are being constructed using cement roofing solutions to meet structural and thermal performance standards.

Moreover, cement roofing systems are well-suited for modular and prefabricated construction, which is gaining momentum due to its efficiency and reduced environmental impact. As sustainability becomes a key concern in new construction, cement roofing materials are also being adopted for their low maintenance requirements and compatibility with energy-saving features such as solar panels and thermal insulation.

Additionally, many construction firms and developers are selecting cement roofing for its aesthetic adaptability, as modern manufacturing techniques allow for various textures, colors, and styles that enhance building design. With the continued push for infrastructure modernization, expanding urban housing demand, and the increasing adoption of eco-friendly building practices, the new construction segment is expected to retain its leading position in the Cement Roofing Market over the forecast period, offering consistent growth opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers globally.

Europe led the way as the fastest-growing region in the global Cement Roofing Market in 2024, and this upward momentum is expected to continue through the forecast period. Several converging trends underpin this growth. First, stringent green building policies and climate-driven regulatory mandates across the European Union, especially under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, are fueling heightened adoption of sustainable materials. Fiber cement and concrete tiles, known for their recyclability, thermal insulation, and low embodied carbon, are now preferred by eco-conscious developers. Second, urbanization and a surge in renovation demand for aging infrastructure, driven by regions such as Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the Nordic countries, have intensified the need for durable, low-maintenance roofing systems. With many European buildings more than 50 years old, widespread re-roofing initiatives have further stimulated market expansion.

Technological improvements are also reshaping the market: cement roofing materials increasingly feature advanced coatings and digitally printed textures that mimic traditional wood, stone, or slate, marrying aesthetic appeal with functional resilience. This innovation is meeting a growing consumer preference for visually striking, yet practical architectural finishes. Additionally, the demand for thermal efficiency has made cool-roof technologies and reflective cement roofing solutions more prevalent, reducing building energy consumption and aligning with Europe’s focus on energy performance.

Moreover, Europe boasts a mature and highly competitive manufacturing ecosystem, supported by skilled labor and research and development investments. Local producers have achieved economies of scale, offering competitively priced, compliant solutions tailored to regional standards. Their ability to quickly adapt to shifting regulations and sustainability standards—such as carbon reduction targets—provides them with an undeniable advantage.
