South Korea Cement Industry Trends and Drivers:
The cement market in South Korea is continuing to grow, with significant consumption coming from construction related demand, as infrastructure projects such as smart cities and high-speed rail networks demand consumption of more than 50 million metric tons of cement a year. Urbanization and government investments into public-works projects, particularly in Seoul and Busan, support the expansion of the market. In parallel, the increase in the adoption of low-carbon and eco-friendly cement varieties is supported by the push for sustainable construction, which is being encouraged by the Republic of Korea’s Green New Deal. The South Korean cement market is valued slightly above $2 billion and utilizes state-of-the-art cement production technology, which increases efficiency and reduces emissions.
All the major players, including Ssangyong Cement and Hanil Cement, actively develop new products using this technology, while some smaller firms are engaged in research-based development into sustainable or eco-friendly technologies and products, in order to meet stricter environmental protection regulations in South Korea. South Korea’s speed of economic growth and the increasing investment from foreigners into real estate developments maintain demand. In addition, blended cements are being increasingly used in residential and commercial projects, and are improving diversification in the cement market in South Korea. The cement industry in South Korea has a strong supply chain that is integrated with the local distribution market, while developing export potential, particularly into countries in Southeast Asia. The increase in domestic investment in disaster-resistant infrastructure, particularly on the Pacific Rim, further creates sustained demand for specialized cements in South Korea. In sum, the South Korean cement market is still poised for continued growth, given the continued increases in construction activity, expansion of sustainability and technological innovations.
