Over the assessment period, the South Asia geosynthetic industry (Industrie des géosynthétiques en Asie du Sud) is projected to experience a robust growth trajectory, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. This upward trend will drive the total revenue in the region to an impressive USD 5,576.5 million by 2033. The expansion is fueled by increased infrastructure development, urbanization, and growing awareness of the benefits of geosynthetics in enhancing soil stability, erosion control, and drainage systems. As the demand for sustainable construction solutions escalates, the geosynthetic market in South Asia is set to thrive, reflecting a significant boost in both market size and industry prominence.

Geosynthetics are in high demand owing to accelerating projects for water containment and canaling in South Asia. Furthermore, developments of rail networks and road is also surging, thus generating the demand for geosynthetics. Geosynthetics are installed to absorb overlay stress, base reinforcement, subgrade stabilization, drainage facility, and filtration. With the help of geosynthetics, rail networks observe better stability and improved stress propagation.

Governments are also vigorously promoting the development of water containment projects owing to the constant demand for water the world over. Government bodies and private entities can also be seen significantly investing in infrastructural projects like airports, railways, roads, and ports. For this purpose, geosynthetics are being utilized due to their cost-effectiveness when it comes to pavement reinforcement, soil stabilization, and erosion control.

Growing environmental concerns and regulations have led to the adoption of sustainable construction practices. Geosynthetics offers solutions for environmental protection, waste management, and erosion control in line with the region’s sustainability goals.

The adoption of geosynthetics might be hampered due to the dearth of skilled labor for the utilization of geosynthetic materials in infrastructural projects. Additionally, oscillating prices of raw materials utilized in geosynthetic materials are also expected to restrict the acceptance of geosynthetic materials.

Top Highlights from the FMI’s Analysis of the South Asia Geosynthetics Market:

  • FMI has spotted that the Australian market is expected to provide significant remunerative opportunities over the forecast period. The Australian market is estimated to offer a 6.7% market share in 2023.
  • India is expected to leave behind all the other South Asian markets for geosynthetics. As per FMI estimates, India is expected to register a CAGR of 9.6% from 2023 to 2033.
  • Based on product type, geotextile segment is expected to command a market share of 33.2% in 2023.
  • Polyester material is popularly used in the production of geosynthetics. In 2023, the segment is anticipated to acquire 27.6%.

“South Asia Geosynthetics is poised for significant growth in the coming years. The study highlights the region’s increasing infrastructure development, environmental concerns, and the need for cost-effective solutions as key drivers for the geosynthetics market. With a focus on sustainable construction practices, South Asia is expected to witness a rising demand for geosynthetics across various applications, ranging from transportation and agriculture to environmental protection.” says an Analyst at Future Market Insights (FMI).
