The market is fragmented with the presence of many domestic manufacturers and distributors that import low-cost products from countries such as China. This has led to several regional manufacturers losing out to cheaper imports. Both multinational as well as regional and indigenous manufacturers have an established presence in the market. Manufacturers compete based on price, innovation, quality, and performance.
Multinationals focus primarily on large-scale construction projects, whereas indigenous players focus more on small-scale construction projects.
Chandrakumar Badala Jaganathan, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on metals and minerals, says, “Conservation of energy and reduction in emissions have now become the prime focus for organizations worldwide and this trend is likely to have an effect on the market during the forecast period, as manufacturers try to adopt advanced technologies. Manufacturers are also promoting innovation by expanding their R&D horizons, and investing in the development of new products.”
