Sustainable Construction Materials: How Polymeric Sand is Revolutionizing Landscaping and Hardscaping Globally | FMI

The polymeric sand market is projected to grow from USD 127.05 billion in 2024 to USD 249.94 billion by 2034, driven by construction and landscaping demand.

NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, May 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The polymeric sand market size is estimated to be around USD 127.05 billion in 2024. It is projected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.00% over the forecast period and reach a market size of USD 249.94 billion by 2034.

With the revival of the construction sector, especially after the pandemic, polymeric sands are experiencing increasing demand from various construction firms, including professionals and contractors involved in residential, commercial, and municipal projects. This growth is due to the benefits of polymeric sand, such as weed prevention, durability, and ease of maintenance.

The growing adoption of polymeric sand is also observed among public entities responsible for infrastructure development and maintenance, such as city governments and municipal authorities. They use it for building various public projects like sidewalk construction, park pathways, and streetscaping initiatives. The market for polymeric sand is also driven by the preference for sustainable and environmentally friendly construction materials.

The adoption of polymeric sand is also touching the skies due to the rising disposable income and improving standards of living in the global middle-class population. This growth is further fueled by the increasing demand for landscaping and hardscaping projects in both residential and commercial sectors, especially in emerging economies like India, China, the United Kingdom, etc.

“There is still limited to no awareness about the advantages of polymeric sand over its traditional counterparts. Companies involved in the polymeric sand market must launch educational initiatives to raise consumer awareness about the benefits of polymeric sand. This includes providing information about its weed-prevention properties, stability enhancement, and long-term cost-effectiveness compared to traditional alternatives like regular sand,” says Nikhil Kaitwade, Associate Vice President at Future Market Insights (FMI).

“Increasing Demand for Enduring Protection Solutions to Harsh Weather Conditions to Boost Polymeric Sand Market”

Various types of sand are being used to fill joints between different kinds of pavers such as brick pavers, stone pavers, asphalt pavers and concrete pavers. However, these sands are subjected to erosion and corrosion. This has paved the way for more efficient bonding products such as polymeric sand.

Unlike regular sand, polymeric sand cannot be washed away by heavy rain or floods. It can withstand extreme climatic conditions, increases the durability of pavements, and restricts the growth of weed.

Growing demand for strong and durable protection solutions across the building and construction industry is anticipated to boost the sales of polymeric sand during the forecast period.

“Rapid Expansion of Residential and Commercial Sectors to Spur the Growth of Polymeric Sand Market”

Growth of polymeric sand market is directly linked to the expansion of building and construction industry as application of polymeric sand is increasing. Besides this, rapidly growing population across the world is generating demand for proper housing facilities.

This in turn is expected to push the sales of construction chemical materials such as polymer sand and the trend is likely to continue in the future. Moreover, improved standard of living and growing inclination towards adding luxurious structures such as swimming pools and patios to homes will further expand the polymeric sand during the forecast period.
