The cobblestone market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.55 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is driven by factors such as the rising aging population, advancements in precision medicine, increased global healthcare expenditure, a heightened focus on early intervention, and regulatory support for orphan drugs. Key trends expected in the forecast period encompass personalized medicine approaches, a shift towards patient-centric care, the integration of biomarkers, adoption of telemedicine and remote monitoring, and innovation in renal replacement therapies, along with the exploration of combination therapies.
Anticipated growth in the cobblestone market is linked to the increasing demand within the construction industry. The construction sector, encompassing activities related to the construction, repair, renovation, and maintenance of infrastructures, is expected to witness heightened demand. Cobblestones play a crucial role in various construction applications, including the creation of durable pavements, walkways, driveways, garden paths, and decorative walls, providing both aesthetic appeal and functional benefits. Notably, in February 2022, a report by ConstructConnect revealed a 6.5% growth in construction starts to $91.8 billion in 2021, with significant increases in both residential (19.7%) and non-residential (22.5%) sectors. This surge in construction demand is a key driver for the growth of the cobblestone market.
The cobblestone market is poised for growth due to the expanding consumer foodservice industry. This sector involves businesses engaged in preparing and serving food and beverages in various settings, such as restaurants, cafes, fast-food outlets, and catering services. Cobblestones find applications in outdoor seating areas, enhancing visual appeal and creating a welcoming ambiance, thereby elevating the overall dining experience. As of September 2023, the Australian consumer foodservice industry, according to the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service, was valued at A$56 (US$40) billion in 2022. The growth in the consumer foodservice industry contributes significantly to the expansion of the cobblestone market.
A prominent trend gaining traction in the cobblestone market is the adoption of technology advancements. Companies within the market are actively embracing new technologies to fortify their market positions. In September 2022, Franz Carl Nüdling GmbH, a German-based manufacturer specializing in stones and concrete, collaborated with Betolar PLC, a Finland-based materials technology company. Together, they introduced the Geoprime solution, an innovative manufacturing technology designed to produce sustainable and low-carbon concrete from concrete paving blocks. By leveraging this revolutionary technology, the carbon footprint of an 8-cm-stone-height concrete block paver was significantly reduced from around 20 kilograms of CO2 per square meter to less than 5 kg, marking a remarkable 75% reduction.
Major players in the cobblestone market are concentrating on developing innovative products, specifically advanced low-carbon paving stones, to foster sustainable urban infrastructure and minimize environmental impact. These eco-friendly construction materials aim to reduce carbon emissions during both production and usage, aligning with the goal of sustainable infrastructure development. For example, in September 2022, Franz Carl Nüdling GmbH introduced a new line of low-carbon paving stones using Betolar’s geoprime solution in Germany. The goal is to cut CO2 emissions from concrete paving blocks and products by up to 80%. Traditionally emitting around 20 kg of CO2 per square meter, these innovative paving stones, employing Geoprime solutions and FCN’s pioneering manufacturing technology, achieved an impressive 75% reduction, lowering emissions to less than 5 kg per square meter.
