DRIVER: 4.1.1 INCREASED EMPHASIS ON GREEN BUILDINGS (LEED RATINGS)

• AAC, owing to its thermal insulation and energy-efficient properties, along with being fire-resistant, termite- or pest-resistant, seismic-resistant and lightweight, is
preferred widely for the construction of green buildings. Since AAC is made up of recyclable material, it does not have any harmful effects on the environment.

• Green buildings, also known as sustainable buildings or green constructions, are built with the objective to reduce the impact of built environment on nature and
human health.

• The term “green building” refers to both, the structure and environmentally friendly & efficient processes used throughout a building’s lifecycle

• The design of green buildings helps strike a balance between sustainable environment and homebuilding. A perfect green building requires close assistance of
architects, engineers, design team, and clients at all stages of the project. The practice of green buildings complements the design concerns of economy, durability,
utility and comfort of a classical building.

• Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED), is an internationally renowned program for green buildings. LEED certification (for the places we work, play,
learn, live, and worship) ensures healthier environments, lower carbon emissions and lower electricity costs.

• LEED’s global sustainability agenda is aimed at accomplishing high performance in key areas of human and ecological health, based on the triple bottom line. It is
aimed at putting people, planet and profit before anything else. LEED credits are granted by third-party official reviewers. These credits are valid for all kinds of
buildings throughout their lifecycle. The credits are awarded on the basis of several rounds of public comments and in association with the US Green Building
Council’s (USGBC) members and staff.

• The global green building practices are driven by LEED, with almost 79,600 projects in more than 1161 countries and territories, globally, with 1.85 million square
feet of building space being certified every day. According to USGBC estimates, there are almost five million people experiencing a LEED construction every day.

• The market is responding to these environmental benefits and cost savings. According to our analysis, the global green building market increases twofold in every
three years and by 2018, it is estimated that, in 70 countries, almost 60% of all projects will be green (environment-friendly).

DRIVER: 4.1.2 GROWING EMPHASIS ON CONSTRUCTING SOUND PROOF BUILDINGS

• AAC has many advantages over conventional concrete, like air void within the concrete, leading to good sound insulation, lightweight, better strength to weight
ratio, and low coefficient of thermal expansion.

• The porous structure of the AAC blocks gives it enhanced sound absorption. AAC blocks have Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of up to 45 decibel (db).

• Moreover, AAC improves the sustainability of the constructed structure, through its ability to absorb and reduce noise. The exceptional sound absorption and
insulation abilities of AAC can be attributed to millions of air cells present, which can diminish sound transmission. These properties of AAC ensures that it can be
primarily used in the construction of walls in hotels, auditorium, studios, hospitals, freeways, etc.

• Significant environmental and material savings can be attained using AAC as it consists of insulation (both, sound and thermal), structural, and fire-resistant
material, all in a single product. The use of AAC will also help reduce CO2 emissions, by decreasing the need for old growth lumber and other trees for conventional
timber frame construction.

DRIVER: 4.1.3 USE OF RECYCLED MATERIAL FOR PRODUCTION

• AAC, a precast product, is manufactured by mixing numerous raw materials including cement, silica (either in the form of recycled fly ash, or sand), water, lime,
and an expansion agent - aluminum powder, and finally pouring the mixture into a cast or mold, which consists of a mesh or steel rebar with respect to structurally-
reinforced AAC products like roof panels or lintels.

• Upon adding the aluminum powder and silica to the concrete, it reacts and leads to the formation of millions of miniscule hydrogen bubbles. The volume of the
concrete increases by five times, owing to the hydrogen bubbles. The hydrogen then evaporates, forming a highly closed-cell aerated concrete. The aerated
concrete is then cut into panels or blocks, which are thereafter pressure and steam cured in an autoclave to form AAC.

• The important criteria for determining whether a product meets the requirements of a green product, or can be used in a sustainable manner, depends on the
ability of the product to use recycled raw materials, avoid toxic emissions, and decrease material usage. Raw materials utilized in the manufacturing of AAC
comprise of recycled materials like fly ash (a co-product form power plants using coal) and copper mine tailings. AAC caters to these requirements extremely well,
as it consumes a low volume of raw material as compared to the amount of finished product produced.

• As AAC is made up of 80% air; the final product is five times the volume of the consumed raw materials. Moreover, the raw materials that are used in the
production of AAC are locally sourced as they were abundantly found in many regions. When compared to CMUs and concrete, in terms of embodied energy, AAC
utilizes approximately 20% to 50% less energy.

• The manufacturing process of AAC does not produce any waste or pollutants and the finished product is totally recyclable. The production of AAC also results in a
lightweight, inorganic, strong, and non-toxic product that does not shrink, corrode, and warp, rot, off-gas or depreciate. AAC is assembled with a reduced need for
additional equipment and with minimal waste, owing to its dimensional accuracy and lightweight. AAC is also mold- and termite-resistant, and almost fireproof. This
extreme durability makes the product practically maintenance free, reducing the need for pesticides, repair materials, and chemical treatments, besides decreasing
operating costs.

DRIVER: 4.1.4 IMPROVED INDOOR AIR QUALITY AND HEAT CONTROL ADVANTAGES

• AAC structures have very low air infiltration and are mold-resistant, which leads to improved quality of indoor air than conventional concrete structures and others.
The use of AAC (which has exceptional insulation and structural qualities) also eliminates the need for materials like fiberglass insulation, which may affect the
quality of indoor air.

• AAC results in augmented energy efficiency owing to its exceptional insulation properties, which makes it a sustainable construction product. The thermal efficiency
of AAC can be attributed to three factors:

 The use of AAC results in solid wall construction with integrated insulation. Owing to entire wall coverage, thermal bridging is avoided, which is ordinarily
done for conventional stud-framed walls. This leaves cold gaps about every header and stud.

 An airtight building envelope is formed, owing to the solid wall assembly of AAC constructions, which helps reduce uncontrolled air changes besides
maintaining desired indoor temperatures, which in turn maximize the HVAC efficiency equipment.

 AAC structures have an additional benefit, owing to low thermal conductivity and added value of thermal mass.

 The benefits of thermal mass vary for every location and are highest in regions with constant outdoor temperature fluctuations, below and above the
required indoor temperature during a 24-hour period. For instance, an 8” AAC wall has a steady state of R-value (it is a measure of resistance to flow of heat
through the given material thickness) of approximately 8.4, and has “mass enhanced” or an “effective” R-value of about 21.8 in Sacramento.

 Hence, AAC is well justified by its ‘green’ title, owing to its ability to consume less raw materials, high energy efficiency, excellent durability, cost-effective
nature (than others), and the ability to be recycled.

4.2 RESTRAINTS 21

RESTRAINT: 4.2.1 HIGH INITIAL COSTS

• The cost of manufacturing an AAC block is higher than normal cement or burnt clay blocks.

• As compared to burnt clay blocks and other blocks, AAC requires high initial investment owing to the equipment involved in the manufacturing.

• The equipment used in the manufacturing of AAC include raw material separation equipment, slurry mixers, casting equipment, autoclaving equipment, and many
others. The state-of-art technology equipment require high initial investments. Despite low cost of raw materials, the high cost of an AAC block can be attributed to
the high initial costs involved.

RESTRAINT: 4.2.2 LIMITED USAGE IN LOAD BEARING WALLS

• AAC has limited usage when it comes to load bearing walls. This is due to its porous nature.

• AAC blocks are susceptible to moisture absorption in regions with high humidity and high rainfall. So, when these blocks are used on the exterior of buildings, they
may require stucco or cladding to keep the water out.

• When used in load bearings, in particular, AAC blocks will require rebar reinforcement. This need for extra equipment increases the overall cost of construction and
increases the weight of the structure. Owing to this limitation, AAC blocks can only be utilized in the construction of low-rise and mid-rise buildings.

4.3 OPPORTUNITIES 24

OPPORTUNITY: 4.3.3 EMPHASIS ON USING FIRE-RETARDANT BUILDING MATERIALS

• AAC is one of the few building materials currently used for construction, with the highest hourly fire resistance ratings per inch.

• AAC becomes the perfect choice for fire protection around steel beams and steel columns and in the construction of stairwells, shaft walls, firewalls and corridors.

• Furthermore, AAC is noncombustible, inorganic, and virtually fireproof. It has a melting point of over 2900 °F (F-Fahrenheit) and has received a four hour UL fire
rating. Thus, the presence of AAC excludes the need for additional materials of fireproofing. Moreover, when exposed to fire, AAC does not emit toxic gases
because it is completely inert.

• These Characteristics of AAC will lead to its quick adoption and provide growth opportunities in the market.

OPPORTUNITY: 4.3.4 GROWING NEED FOR DISASTER-RESITANT BUILDINGS

• AAC can withstand harsh weather conditions or extreme changes in climatic conditions. Thus, it can last for longer periods and will not degrade due to normal
changes in climatic conditions.

• Buildings constructed using AAC have performed well in areas with high rate of natural calamities like earthquakes, hurricanes, etc. For example, in the 1995 Kobe,
Japan, earthquake, many buildings that survived mostly undamaged were constructed using AAC. These buildings even acted as fire breakers and were also
immune to fires that began because of the earthquake.

• This ability of AAC structures to withstand natural disasters and fire helps minimize waste, contamination of the surrounding environment, and decrease the need
for repairing materials, besides lowering insurance costs.

6.1.3 CHINA 57

• China is an emerging economy and is the largest in terms of purchasing power parity and the second-largest economy in terms of nominal GDP. In 2017, its GDP is
expected to grow at 6.5%, while in 2018, it is expected to grow slower with 6.3%. So far, the Chinese government policies have been in line with the proposed
objectives to implement economic reforms. China’s geographic location provides easy access to industrial goods markets in the neighboring countries, as well as,
globally other countries, making it a major access point for manufacturers and suppliers.

• 2016 was the first year of China’s 13th five year plan. It was an important year for the country’s engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) industry as it
ventured into new business models domestically and internationally. The construction sector had slowed down after 2013 but it is still a major contributor to the GDP
of China. In 2016, China’s construction industry developed rapidly achieving 17% growth over the past year, a contrast to the slow down of other traditional industries
in China. This strong growth was because of two reasons:

1. China’s central government’s push for infrastructure investment as a means to sustain economic growth

2. Local government’s relaxations of real estate regulations, purchase criteria and credit availability which boosted domestic construction

• On the international stage, China’s leading construction enterprises have been ranked ahead of other global players. Engineering News Record (ENR), one of the
industry’s leading publications, ranked China’s construction companies as the top four “Global Contractors” over the last three consecutive years.

• The labor cost has increased but the construction activity is expected to grow at about 3.8% in the forecast period. The demand for autoclaved aerated concrete
products is expected to grow with China’s One Belt, One Road initiative. This plan focuses on green development and urbanization with infrastructure development
of airport, roads, 30,000 km of high speed rail covering which will cover more than 80 cities. These infrastructural projects will be the major drivers of the AAC market
in the country.

• Rapid growth in the construction sector of China over the past year is an indication of the potential for the AAC market in this country. The market is expected to
grow at a high rate in this forecast period.

• Moreover, 100% FDI in construction sector and introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) are expected to ease tax-related complexities in the construction
sector and result in the growth of construction activity. Some of the main priorities for the government are Delhi- Mumbai industrial corridor, Navi Mumbai International
Airport and Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train network, where the use of AAC in expected to grow considerably.

• In order to increase efficiency and competitiveness in transportation infrastructure, multi modal logistics and transport network are expected to be implemented by the
government. To this effect, USD 36.2 billion has been allocated to transportation sector. The housing sector has also witnessed growth with institutional housing credit
growing to 19.5% in 2015-16 from 16.8% in 2014-15. There is still an urban housing shortage of 19 million units and the major demand is from lower income and
weaker section groups. Some of the regions in North India face unstable climates and the use of AAC in these regions is expected to grow with projects like Housing
for All by 2022 and smart cities.

• India’s construction market is registering signs of growth. The Housing and Infrastructure sectors would be key development drivers in the near future, buoyed by
Government support. In 2018, the market would be driven by increased public and private investment in transport and urban infrastructure. The market for autoclaved
aerated concrete product is still under growth stage in the nation but with many construction activities, government initiatives and increasing consumer awareness
about the product, the market for autoclaved aerated concrete is expected to grow at a high rate during the forecast period.

6.1.5 JAPAN 63

• The economy in Japan is growing from low to a moderate rate. The earthquake that hit Kumamoto, the manufacturing hub of Japan, in mid 2016 has
affected its economy to slowdown a little. GDP is expected to grow at 0.9% in 2017 while in 2018, it is expected to be a stable economy with 0.8% growth
rate.

• The Japanese construction sector remains positive. It is a stable, advanced market that is strongly receptive to the high quality building products. Japan’s
population, has high disposable incomes, a commitment to energy efficiency and resource conservation, and a strong interest in new technologies. The
Japanese market includes dense urban centers and extensive existing buildings in need of renovation, and seismic resilience of buildings is a long-
standing requirement in Japan. The construction industry is expected to grow at 1.2% annually with civil engineering works showing slightly higher rate of
expansion than buildings.

• Japan’s wooden housing market is the largest in the world outside the United States, and the residential housing sector accounts for an estimated 40% of
wood use in Japan. Housing and other buildings consume 30% of the total energy in the country. With significant increase in energy consumption by
housing sector compared to other sectors like transportation and industrial, the Japanese government has embarked on a roadmap to roll out a series of
building energy efficiency policies and programs. The use of AAC is expected to be an integral part in these policies because of its low carbon footprint
value.

• The AAC market will benefit from increasing demand, triggered by a rebound in residential construction and projects related to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Also, there are some other major long-term projects such as Maglev railway and upgrades to highway networks etc., which will also increase the market
for autoclaved aerated concrete in the country. Moreover, Mori Building Co. had unveiled the plan for transforming Tokyo’s Toranomon area into
international business hub with about JPY 400 billion investment plan. Overall the market for autoclaved aerated concrete product is expected to increase
at a high rate during the forecast period.

6.1.6 SOUTH KOREA 66

• The economy of South Korea has slowed down due to two reasons, outbreak of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in 2015, and slow demand from China and
other Asian countries, and higher household debt, which has directly affected the growth rate of all industries. So, in the forecast period the economic growth is
expected to be at a rate of 2.6% - 2.8%.

• The Construction sector will grow at a rate of 1.3% in 2017 and moderately during the forecast period. The AAC demand is expected to be driven by works related to
the hosting of the 2018 Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, Gangwon province, in which government has planned to invest USD 10.8 billion to construct new
stadiums and related infrastructure including residential hotels and others . The government has also increased the permits in construction for residential, institutional,
and industrial buildings which will further drive the growth for autoclaved aerated concrete products during the forecast period.

• However, weak growth in residential sector will undermine the long term development of South Korea’s overall construction industry and will also decrease the demand
for AAC in the housing sector. The autoclaved aerated concrete market in South Korea is expected to increase at a high rate.

6.2.1 CANADA 75

• Canada is a hi-tech industrial country. It is a developed country in North America, with a GDP of USD 1,529 billion in 2016 and GDP growth rate projected at 1.4%
for 2017.

• The important driver of the overall Canadian economy is the construction sector, which also serves as an accurate measurement of how strong or weak the national
economy is, at any given time. Canada is identified as one of the world’s largest markets for commercial, residential, and infrastructural development.

• Finance Minister Jim Flaherty and the federal government maintain that there will be a continuance of support for infrastructure and construction, under the
Economic Action Plan 2012. The Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund (CIIF) provides USD 150 million for the repair and improvement of community
infrastructure facilities across the country. Many provinces are also helping to shore up a number of the country’s key economic sectors, including FedDev Ontario,
which is delivering funds of about USD 50 million over two years. In addition, 6,500 projects were bolstered through Infrastructure Canada, to build and repair
thousands of kilometers of expressways and highways across the country.

• After a slight decrease in the growth of the construction sector in 2015 from the 2014 levels, the growth levels witnessed an upward trend in 2016. They are
expected to maintain this positive trend during the forecast period.

• The government is planning to invest on public & renewable energy infrastructure, Affordable Housing Initiative (AHI), Made in Canada, and New Building Canada
Plan (NBCP), among others, which is expected to support the country’s growth in the future. The Government of Canada has announced investment plans of about
USD 120 billion, for such projects.

• Residential construction and other domestic infrastructure are expected to gain more focus during the forecast period. These developments in infrastructure and
construction activities are expected to drive the demand for autoclaved aerated products at a high pace over the forecast period.

6.2.2 MEXICO 78

• The GDP of Mexico was USD 1.046 trillion in 2016 and is expected to record a moderately low growth rate in 2017. The country has become the second largest
export market and the third largest source of imports for the united States. Mexico has a free trade agreement with 46 countries with around 90% of the
commodities in the free agreement, which is very beneficial for almost all the sectors and economy of the country.

• The Mexican construction industry represents the fourth-largest value-added activity in the country. Ranked behind manufacturing, commerce, and real estate
services, it constitutes roughly 8% of the GDP.

• The construction industry has been facing problems post the US elections of 2016. The United States adopting a protectionist stand in trading relations has led
the investors reconsidering their plans for operations in Mexico, decreasing the investment on the country’s construction industry. Peso (MXN) has been
devaluated to a record low value against the US dollar (USD). As a consequence, the increased inflation has contributed to a rise in the prices of construction
materials and equipment.

• The Mexican government has made cuts in the budget and increased taxes to retain the revenue. The government is relying on the best financial vehicles, like
the corporate sector, to attract private capital for investment at a great scale.

• Despite the federal cuts, the construction industry has grown by 2% in 2016. This is mainly because of continued investment in commercial and residential
building projects by the private sector.

• The growth in construction activity is expected to remain stagnant in the coming years but with a slight upward shift, which is expected to greatly impact the
demand for autoclaved aerated concrete products.

• The US construction industry slowed down to 2.6% in 2016, from 4.5% in 2015. An increase of 2% is expected in 2017. The slow-down is expected to slightly affect
the demand for autoclaved aerated concrete products. These products are beneficial in applications, cost effective, and eco-friendly. Owing to these properties and
as a substitute to other construction materials, the products are expected to witness increased demand.

• The construction of both single and multi-family residents and commercial buildings has gained momentum in the country, with the non-residential construction
activities expected to grow at around 5% in 2017. The US housing construction sector is also poised for growth, albeit at a slower pace than the previous years.

• The US construction industry has a huge potential for growth, if the new administration invests heavily on several infrastructural activities, with banks lending a
helping hand. There has been an increase in the buying activities of the country, after the Federal Reserve has increased the interest rate in December 2016. The
construction industry’s payments take place on an average between 30 – 60 days, to avoid late payments. For two years, payments in the construction sector have
been good and late payments have been levelled off. The construction sector’s insolvencies have been decreasing, but the small businesses in this sector are still
facing risk of bankruptcy.

• The use of autoclaved aerated concrete products in the United States began 20 years ago, much after the usage started in Europe and other Asian countries, due
to higher initial capital expenditure required for domestic autoclaved aerated concrete facility and the major residential buildings using timber-frame construction.
The United States has witnessed a constant increase in the use of autoclaved aerated concrete products during the recent years. Moreover, these products are
certified as environmentally-sustainable materials.

• The market for autoclaved aerated concrete products is expected to grow at a moderate rate during the forecast period.

6.2.4 REST OF NORTH AMERICA 84

• Rest of North America includes emerging countries, such as Cuba, Jamaica, and Dominican Republic. The region is expected to grow over the forecast period. The
consumption of autoclaves aerated concrete is less in these countries. Construction activities in the region are less and the governments are trying to boost the
same.

• Cuba is prioritizing construction among all other sectors, with the aim of attracting foreign investment and acquiring new construction technologies and systems,
which will stimulate the development of this sphere in the country. The most important driving factor in Cuba is the housing sector.

• Dominican Republic has displayed a remarkable growth in construction sector, with the Dominican Republic Central Bank providing the investment in construction
activities of several mega-projects, including the several highways infrastructure systems, elevation of several major avenues in Santo Domingo, second Metro line
of Santo Domingo, the construction of 10,000 new classrooms, low-income housing projects across the country, and other infrastructure improvements. Also there
has been an increase in US government goods, as there are no tariffs or low tariff rates, with the country being a member of CAFTA – DR (Dominican Republic –
Central America FTA).

• The Jamaican government has initiated major reforms in the housing segment, to drive the economic growth. To expand the construction sector, several major
projects, such as, North-South leg of the highway, the Blue Mountain Renewable project, etc., have been completed. There has been an expansion in the
importation of construction materials.

• A major restraint affecting the construction sector’s growth in these countries is their lesser population, which has resulted in lesser infrastructure development;
consequently having a slowing impact on the expected growth of the autoclave aerated concrete market over the forecast period.

• However, the usage of autoclaved aerated concrete in renovation or reconstruction of existing residential and industrial structures will positively impact the demand
for AAC in these countries.

6.3.1 FRANCE 90

• The French economy is estimated to record a GDP growth rate of 1.2% in 2017 and is anticipated to remain at the same level in 2018. France is the third largest
economy in Europe. France spends 2.6% of its GDP on research & development. The level of productivity has increased and the household consumption has
increased by approximately 0.5%. The public investment has also increased in businesses, supporting the growth of the country’s economy.

• France is the second largest country in the European construction segment. In the previous years, the French construction industry witnessed a decline. However,
from 2016 onward, it witnessed a volumetric growth of 1.9%, according to the French Builders Association FFB (Fédération Française du Bâtiment). The recovery is
driven by new residential and commercial construction activities. The country’s construction activity is expected to increase by 3.4% in 2017. This growth will be
propelled by tax exemptions and low interest rates. The infrastructure sector is expected to garner an additional investment of EUR 500 million over the forecast
period. The AAC is a popular product in France, due to its insulation properties. The demand for AAC is expected to increase further, with the recovering construction
market.

• However, due to eight years of decline, the construction industry still faces challenges. Household purchase power remains restricted, due to low public building
activities. Competition is high and profitability is low. Banks are unwilling to give short-term credit despite the current upturn. Although the rebound in the construction
sector is encouraging, the industry is still cautious. Overall, the French AAC sector is expected to grow at a moderate pace over the forecast period.

6.3.4 NORDIC COUNTRIES 99

• The NORDIC countries in Europe include Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Greenland, Faroe and Island, among others. These countries are
developing and are expected to grow during the forecast period. However, the recent instability in the wake of Brexit is likely to impact the industrial development of
these countries.

• Construction is one of the main industries in the NORDIC countries. The autoclaved aerated concrete was first discovered in Sweden in 1920s. The Swedish
construction industry witnessed positive growth rate in the recent past. Among the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, the residential sector holds a
major contribution of the construction industry. It accounts for approximately half of the construction industry. The industrial sector also holds a significant portion of
the construction sector. The autoclaved aerated concrete products are being adopted by consumers in Sweden ever since the time of discovery of these products
and is one of the major consumers of these products.

• Denmark is another major country in the region. Rising population and urbanization led to the growth of the construction industry in this country, which is majorly
contributed by the residential building sector. Commercial buildings are also growing and are expected to contribute significantly during the forecast period. These
factors are anticipated to result in an increased use of AAC in the country’s residential and commercial construction activities.

• Weak economic conditions in the countries, such as Norway and Finland in the recent past, due to uncertain economic developments in the Eurozone, are
expected to affect the construction industry in these countries. The demand for autoclaved aerated concrete products is mainly in residential and commercial
buildings, because of their environmental-friendly nature. The market in these countries is fragmented and still growing, with specific demands by consumers. The
overall demand for autoclaved aerated concrete products in Nordic countries is moderate, since the market is already matured and depends on the upcoming
construction projects during the forecast period.

6.3.5 UNITED KINGDOM 102

• The economy of United Kingdom has witnessed a stagnation, with the voting of Brexit. The GDP growth rate of the United Kingdom was 1.8% in 2016, which is
expected to slightly decrease in the future. The UK construction sector is a major contributor to its economy and is ranked as the sixth largest construction sector in
the world. It employs around 10% of the country’s population. The industry is highly fragmented, with more than 280,000 businesses operating in the country.

• The construction industry is currently at its highest growth level in the last 18 months, with public and private house building accounting for the strongest part over
the past year. House building was the main driver behind construction growth again and grew at the fastest rate since 2016. Work on civil engineering projects also
picked up at a robust pace, while commercial construction increased only slightly. The construction industry is growing at a moderate pace and residential
construction is slowly increasing. The rest of the construction industry has picked up pace post 2016 and is expected to recover during the forecast period. United
Kingdom being a cold weather country, AAC was already a major product in the construction sector of the country. With rising construction activities in the country,
AAC’s importance in the residential and commercial sector is set to grow.

• The country’s construction industry is a highly prioritized one for the government. The government has promised to build 1000000 homes by 2020. In 2016, the
government updated the Government Construction Pipeline announcing its plans for projects worth GBP 163 billion, including large projects such as HS2, the new
North South High Speed Rail, as well as the affordable homes program. Furthermore, the total investments from 2017 to 2021 in the construction sector are
expected to be worth GBP 300 billion. These government initiatives further encourage the AAC market in the country.

• From a mergers and acquisitions perspective, infrastructure is the most attractive segment in the country. Interest in this segment is driven by China, to develop
presence in areas, such as nuclear power generation, road, and rail. House building and general constructing continue to attracting interest, particularly from China.
In the United Kingdom, large contractors have been through a period of divestment. They have consequently experienced a small performance increase. However,
the depreciation of the currency after Brexit has also affected the market and is expected to witness a decline in the near future. Looking ahead, the construction
industry may face a period of volatility and structural change, as the UK negotiates its exit from the European Union.

• Rest of Europe includes countries, such as, Turkey, Spain, Russia, Czech Republic, Poland, etc. and the usage of autoclaved aerated concrete in the region has
been in practice for several years, owing to its benefits.

• The commercial construction segment is poised to register a high growth rate in the region. Furthermore, the industrial construction in a few countries is increasing
at a moderate rate. The residential construction sector is expected to grow at a moderate rate, due to decreasing housing demand in these countries as the
population is less and economy is growing at slow pace. The rest of European autoclaved aerated concrete sector is expected to grow at a moderate pace, owing to
these factors.

6.4.1 ARGENTINA 112

• The Argentine economy has been highly volatile in nature, since the past few years. The economy has slowed down and the GDP growth rate of the
economy is projected to increase at 0.7% for 2017, with economic reforms, increasing public investments, and consumption levels.

• The deteriorated macroeconomic environment has affected the country’s performance. The decrease in economic activity is mainly owing to declining rate
of private consumption, high inflation rate, devaluation of Argentine currency against the United States Dollar, decline in trade surplus despite the country’s
strong control of imports and, limited access to financing. The industrial output in Argentina witnessed a slight slowdown in the recent times.

• The construction sector in Argentina has witnessed a rapid downfall in the beginning of 2016, owing to the fiscal deficit in 2015, thus causing non-
payments to workers and higher inflation, resulting in less private developments. The government’s efforts to support growth in the industry involves
providing affordable housing to the country's low income population and increasing the production of renewable energy to drive investment in energy and
infrastructure projects. The Argentine President, Mauricio Macri, has announced investment of USD 25 billion to restrain the existing deficiencies in the
transportation sector (rail, road, airports, and sewage systems) between 2016 and 2026.

• The onset of 2017 witnessed a slight increase in the construction industry, with increase in government fiscal activities. On April 3, 2017, the Argentine
government announced the agreement with unions and banks to lower labor costs in the construction sector to attract investments. The agreement
involves banks promising loans with lower interest rates and concessions like lowering income taxes for labor unions. The government is working to
provide impetus to private construction, after the construction for public works projects have already taken off.

• During the forecast period, the sector is expected to recover from the downfall, owing to the government’s endeavors in enhancing growth of the
construction Industry. However, the growth is expected to be lower. The Argentine autoclaved aerated concrete market is expected to grow at a moderate
rate during the forecast period.

6.4.2 BRAZIL 115

• Brazil has been witnessing a volatile economy since the past few years, with the GDP decreasing by 0.4% in 2016 .

• The political instability and high inflation, low prices of export of goods, and depressed confidence levels have caused the Brazilian economy to contract. The
economy is expected to grow during the forecast period, until there are reforms and corrections in the country’s political system. However, the Brazilian government
is investing heavily in the R&D sector, with public universities and research institutes carrying out similar activities.

• As of 2015, the construction sector in Brazil had a deteriorating rate, with the inflation rate being higher and the currency being depreciated. The residential market
segment is the largest in the construction sector of the country, with about 30% market share.

• The government is striving to establish political and economic stability. The “Crescer” initiative, launched by the government, grants concessions on infrastructure
projects to private investors in the hope of reaching nearly EUR 19 billion in investments, by 2020. “Minha Casa Minha Vida”, a housing program was
reestablished, promising 35,000 residential units by 2017.

• However, the likelihood of numerous infrastructural projects facing temporary delays is high in Brazil, as witnessed in the past. In addition, the implication of
construction companies involved in corruption scandals raises questions regarding credibility.

• The demand for housing is higher in the country. However, the investors have low confidence, owing to high volatility in the economy and restricted credit supply.
The government initiatives require time for execution. Thus, the construction industry can remain stagnant for a considerable amount of time and is expected to
grow from 2020.

• The autoclaved aerated concrete market has potential in the country and is expected to increase at a moderate rate, with improving construction and infrastructure
projects during the forecast period.

6.4.3 COLOMBIA 118

• The Colombian economy is the third-largest in South America. The GDP was USD 282.6 billion in 2016 and is estimated to reach USD 300 billion by 2017.

• In 2016, the inflation rate had increased to around 8-9%, from 6.8% in 2015. The consumer confidence has decreased, owing to the scandal which involved bribing
in exchange for construction activities. The government has announced to decrease social spending by 10% in the budget proposed for 2017, owing to low prices
of oil, which is the main source of government revenue.

• The construction sector is expected to grow at a higher rate, owing to the government’s efforts in construction activities like new residential buildings, roads,
hospitals, and over-bridge construction activities planned during the forecast period. The advancing fourth generation (4G) Public-Private Partnership (PPP) had
dealt with about 28 projects, including airport expansion and river transport infrastructure projects. The eventual expansion of the 4G program is expected to have
a positive impact on the Colombian economic competitiveness, by lowering the increased logistic costs that hamper the country’s productivity and drive up the
industry outputs.

• In 2016, the Colombian government had collaborated with Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency ( SIDA) to contribute to peace building, state
building, and sustainability development.. The US Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement (TPA) offers many benefits for the United States, like strong protection
for investors, US companies treated as locals during public bids, expanded access to service market, etc. Owing to the increase in opportunities in road
construction and 4G contracts, American investors are interested to offer services to Colombia’s construction companies.

• The residential sector demand for housing is higher in the country , with more demand arising from the middle-class population. The use of autoclaved aerated
concrete has been increasing, with consumer awareness about the benefits.

• There are few manufacturers of autoclaved aerated concrete products in the country, but the number is expected to grow. Majority of the products are imported
from Brazil and other global suppliers. The demand for autoclaved aerated concrete products is expected to increase at a higher rate, with higher construction
activities expected during the forecast period.

6.4.4 REST OF SOUTH AMERICA 121

• Rest of South America includes countries, such as Chile, Peru, Venezuela, etc., which hold a major share in the South American region.

• Chile’s construction sector had witnessed negative growth in 2016, but is expected to modestly expand during 2017. The importation of construction machinery and
equipment decreased by 15% between 2015-2016 and is expected to remain with zero growth during 2017. The Chilean government has to take measures like
investing at least 3.5% of the GDP to increase and improve the current infrastructure. Currently, investment aggregates approximately between 1.5 and 2.5%.
Financing of infrastructure projects is mostly by direct state investment and public/private partnerships. In addition, there is a need for expansion in ports, airports,
and highways as Chile has a large portfolio of outstanding transportation infrastructure projects .

• The construction industry in Venezuela has taken a downturn. Building middle-income homes is rarely feasible, owing to meagre financing available for construction
or purchase, with middle-class spending power battered by inflation .Venezuela is witnessing a slight increase in the construction of luxury buildings. Venezuela has
started advancing toward the socialism to protect laborers’ interests.

• The construction sector, one of the most important industries in Peru, is witnessing a continuous growth. The growing Peruvian middle-class and the increase in
tourism is fuelling the construction industry, which also drives the economic growth. New malls and hotels are built all over the country and the high housing demand
of the growing-middle class population induces the building of residential areas within Lima and other Peruvian provinces. The government also plans to attract
private investments into infrastructure construction, by exempting complex tax barriers to improve the underdeveloped Peruvian infrastructure.

• Countries in the rest of South America are expected to experience stagnancy in the construction sector for sometime, owing to decline in the economy’s growth and
is expected to increase after a considerable amount of time, with government policies and estimated growth of municipal corporation (government) construction at
higher rate in the countries during the forecast period. Therefore, an increase in demand for aerated autoclaved concrete products is expected in the future.

6.5.1 SAUDI ARABIA 127

• Saudi Arabia, an oil-rich country, has an emerging economy that had slowed down in 2016, when compared to 2015, owing to lower crude oil prices and the
country’s regulatory policy. The market openness and investment opportunities in the kingdom are less, when compared to other emerging economies, which have
become restraints to the growth rate. The GDP of Saudi was USD 646 billion for 2016 and is expected to increase to 2.2% by 2017..

• The major application of autoclaved aerated concrete is in the construction industry, which is expected to remain moderate in 2017, owing to the lack of government
revenue, which resulted from decrease in oil prices. Banks, which were the main source of investment, have restricted lending owing to the poor economic
conditions and lack of credibility, as a result of increase in non payment notifications and insolvencies in 2016.

• The Saudi Arabian government is trying hard to maintain economic stability by attracting private investments. In its tenth development plan, the government is
reforming the economic plans, with growing investments in diversified sectors and to get transformed into a diversified economy, away from oil.

• The announcement of the Vision 2030 and associated National Transformation Plan (NTP) has increased investments in various sectors, such as healthcare,
education, and infrastructure to support the country’s economic growth. The government has expansive plans for the development of social infrastructure,
transportation and energy & utility construction in the country. The government and private investment in different sectors in the country is expected to lead to rise
in the industrial and commercial building & construction activities in the kingdom.

• The demand for residential buildings is expected to be fueled by the population growth, rapid industrialization, and positive regional economic conditions. The
country’s population is expected to increase at a significant pace during 2010-2030, as per the United nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs
(UNDESA) report. Furthermore, the government’s white land tax initiative, to reduce the housing shortage, is expected to boost the demand for autoclaved aerated
concrete in the country.

• The construction industry is expected to grow moderately in the forecast period, as considerable time is required to overcome the deteriorated economic stability.
Then, further increase can be expected in the industry, which, in turn, is expected to increase the demand for autoclaved aerated concrete in the country in the
future.

6.5.2 SOUTH AFRICA 130

• The South African economy has been under crisis since 2015, with depreciation in currency value and high unemployment rate. Thus, there is a shrinkage in the
economic growth. The GDP was USD 294.8 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow by 2% in 2017, according to a forecast by the International Monetary Fund
(IMF).

• Brexit is expected to affect the South African economy, since South Africa is the largest recipient of FDI from the United Kingdom. FDI had also slowed down in
2015, which has again contracted the economic growth rate. The government is planning to have a one-stop-shop program, which is expected to improve new
businesses, in addition to taking up new initiatives for promoting investments and build up consumer confidence.

• The South African construction industry has been facing a downturn in the non-residential sector, owing to slow recovery of the economy. The data has shown a
sharp rise in construction prices of 9.5% in the first quarter of 2017, driven by high national inflation pressure and a marked increase in input costs. The economic
had a serious effect on the building plan permissions, which decreased their value by 21.9% compared to the same period in 2016.

• The residential sector has shown positive outlook, with a significant 52%,when compared to 2016, with the South African government investing in housing, energy,
transport & sanitation sectors (which were not ceased, despite the bleak outlook for economy growth) and modernizing the airports and buildings of educational
institutions. The authorities have announced to an investment of USD 767.8 million in educational building construction for 2023 and USD 67.3 billion in airport,
water, energy, and transport infrastructure development and renovation works. In addition, the construction industry has weighed upon the private sector project
investments, which have slightly increased.

• The construction industry is expected to remain stagnant in the coming years, owing to the lack of business confidence in construction activities and uncertain
political and economic outlook. However, the industry can show progress in the forecast period, owing to an increase in reliance on infrastructure pipeline. The
infrastructure developments in construction activities are expected to add value to the autoclaved aerated concrete market during the forecast period

6.5.3 QATAR 133

• Qatar is an oil-rich country, with maximum dependency on the hydrocarbon and oil & gas sectors. In 2016, the country witnessed a budget deficit for the first time in
the last 15 years, owing to low oil prices. The GDP was USD 152 billion in 2016, and is estimated to increase slightly to 3.8% by 2017.

• Qatar is the fastest-growing construction market in the Gulf region. Despite the economic crisis, the budget for infrastructure and construction activities were not
reduced, which maintained the confidence among the private sector. The country had spent nearly USD 98 billion on large-scale projects and an additional USD 13
billion on new projects in 2017.

• A number of infrastructure projects are expected to be undertaken by the government, in preparation for the FIFA World Cup 2022 event, thus providing the
necessary stimulus to the growth of the construction industry. The event was the major reason for Qatar not suffering a severe slowdown as some of its Gulf
Cooperation Council (GCC) neighbors, in the wake of low oil prices.

• The construction industry can be classified under building, infrastructure, and energy. The building construction segment, which includes residential, commercial,
healthcare, and education is estimated to increase from USD 12,073 million in 2016 to USD 16,993 million in 2017. Qatar has set a target to develop the highest
number of green or carbon-neutral buildings by 2030. The infrastructure construction, which includes roads, bridges, and airports is estimated to increase from USD
5,336 million in 2016 to USD 6,629 million in 2017.

• Qatar’s Public Works Authority is working on projects worth USD 200 billion. The country is mainly focusing on the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The energy sector, which
includes power and oil & gas is estimated to increase from USD 1,500 million in 2016 to USD 3,000 million in 2017, with main focus on deploying solar energy.

• The increase in the demand for the construction industry has increased the demand for construction-related materials, such as autoclaved aerated cement, which is
increasing at a higher rate, with high demand from industrial buildings, residential buildings, hotels & resorts, among others. The middle-class’ residential demand
has gone up in the country, in addition to an increase in demand for villas from the high-class population. The growing construction market is expected to boost the
growth of the market for autoclaved aerated concrete products in the country.

• Rest of Middle East & Africa mainly includes countries, such as Kuwait, UAE, Bahrain, Oman, etc., with major share in the regions.

• The construction industry in Kuwait is poised for growth, as the government is investing USD 234 billion in the construction industry, despite a decrease in oil
prices. Construction being the catalyst for economic growth, the government is investing in five major construction projects, which include oil &gas, urban
construction (which contribute to 73% of construction activities), hospitality, and tourism.

• UAE is witnessing increase in the number of construction activities, owing to growing infrastructure activities in the countries. There has been an increase in
momentum in UAE’s non-oil activities in the private sector in December 2016, owing to improving economic conditions. Dubai’s 2017 budget has increased the
emirate’s infrastructure spending by 27%, with the launch of “Dubai Harbor”, a multi-billion dollar tourism project.

• In 2016, the Bahraini government had planned to invest USD 32 billion for infrastructure pipeline, which is a key driver for economic growth. In addition, projects
including a major upgrade of the international airport, road-building schemes, a new railway link with Saudi Arabia, utilities developments and logistics support,
investments in housing, industry, and services are in the rudimentary stage.

• Oman, being struck by low crude oil prices, is currently focusing on the development of transport infrastructure, energy and utilities’ facility, and housing sectors.

7. FUTURE OF THE MARKET 138

• The global autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.12% (in terms of revenue) during the forecast period. In a span of five
years, AAC is expected to penetrate the construction market in a significant manner, particularly in the developed nations.

• AAC is primarily developed as a substitute for wood that is used in construction. Europe has pioneered the usage of the product since its invention. However,
Asia-Pacific is expected to emerge as the highest AAC consuming region in the future. By 2022, Asia-Pacific is expected to use ~20% more AAC than Europe.
The awareness about AAC in Asia-Pacific is consistently increasing. Clay bricks are already being replaced by AAC in major cities of the region. Asia-Pacific,
predominantly a tropical region, favors the use of AAC. The cost effectiveness of AAC has already been realized in the region and social stigma is the only factor
restraining the market. Cement usage in AAC is high and, thus, cement prices directly affect the cost of AAC. The volatile cement prices in the region are
expected to hinder the demand for AAC in countries, such as India. From the manufacturing perspective, the region has already emerged as the largest producer
and exporter of AAC, particularly in China and India.

• Europe is a saturated market for AAC, owing to extensive use. Modest growth is expected from the eastern European nations, owing to the scope of penetration
of the market. By country, Germany is the major user of AAC in the region and is expected to hold its position in the future as well. Nordic countries collectively
consume more AAC than any other country in the world, except China, and are expected to continue the trend. However, non-autoclave technologies are
expected to foray into the market share and the potential of AAC in the near future, owing to the growing popularity of non-autoclave technologies. However, AAC
market share is expected to rise, as it may continue to replace clay bricks in Europe over the next five years.

• Although a predominantly developed region, North America is an extremely low-potential market for AAC. Few construction firms are showing interest in the
technology. However, abundant availability of substitutes and non-popularity of AAC are expected to hinder the market growth in the region. Except for Mexico,
the North American region is expected to be a low-potential market during the next five years. Mexico is a bright spot for the AAC market in the North American
region and is expected to get a significant boost in the future, with active investments in AAC manufacturing. Some of the manufacturers hoe to export AAC to the
United States in the near future.

8.3 STRATEGIES ADOPTED BY LEADING PLAYERS 144

Xella Group

Globally, Xella Group is the largest manufacturer of AAC. The group is always focused on innovation and expansion, through its strategic expansions, acquisitions,
product launches, and research & development activities. For example, the company has recently introduced its newest aerated concrete block, Ytong Energy+,
which claims to possess unsurpassed insulating properties and is used in the construction of inner and outer walls. From 2021, private developers are expected to
be required to build zero-energy homes under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, which is the company’s long-term goal. The company has developed
this product, which will specifically be used for monolithic wall constructions, thereby, facilitating energy saving in buildings.

ACICO Industries

Demand for building & construction materials is expected to increase, as a direct result of the infra-structure projects announced by the State under the second
development plan (2015/2016 – 2019/2020) within the Kuwait Vision 2035. To this regard, the ACICO group launched the extension of its concrete production line,
which includes the establishment of a factory for the production of all types and sizes of aerated concrete and non-concrete, construction requirements, and import
and export of building materials. Furthermore, the company’s aspirations are not restricted to the presence in Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.
The company plans to expand to other Middle East and North African countries, according to an accurately-assessed expansion strategy to maximize the market
share, future returns, and profits.

H+H International A/S

The second-largest manufacturer of AAC, H+H’s primary strategy is to penetrate new market segments, including high-rise residential and non-residential buildings,
create more sales from direct contact with the builders, and maintaining customer loyalty. The company initiates various agreements, developments, and acquisitions
to maintain its position in the market. For example, in 2016, the company decided to upgrade the Borough Green factory project to increase the availability of AAC
and to maintain the leading position in the market. The company tries to maintain diversity in the geographical market and not get affected by the performance of a
single region.
