Crushed Stones Market Report 2026

The crushed stones market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.12 billion in 2025 to $4.41 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of urban construction activities, growth in road and highway development, increasing use of concrete in infrastructure, availability of quarrying resources, expansion of industrial construction demand.

The crushed stones market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.1 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising investments in large-scale infrastructure projects, growing demand for sustainable construction materials, expansion of automated quarrying technologies, increasing focus on efficient material logistics, rising use of aggregates in renewable energy infrastructure. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for construction aggregates, rising use of crushed stone in infrastructure projects, expansion of mechanized quarrying operations, growing focus on quality-controlled aggregates, enhanced adoption of efficient blasting techniques.

Anticipated expansion in the crushed stone market is linked to the growing demand for concrete materials in the upcoming years. Concrete materials, constituting various elements used in concrete manufacturing, play a pivotal role in construction. Crushed stones, also referred to as aggregates, are essential components in concrete, serving as the foundational material for this versatile construction substance. They contribute strength, stability, and texture to concrete, influencing its overall performance and aesthetic. As of August 2023, based on data from the UK Department for Business and Trade, ready-mixed concrete sales experienced a 9.6% increase in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the preceding quarter of 2022, underscoring the surging demand for concrete materials that propels the crushed stone market.

Major companies in the crushed stones market are focusing on introducing advanced crushing solutions to enhance operational efficiency, productivity, and product quality. Crushing solutions are specialized equipment designed to break down and process raw stone into aggregates suitable for construction, infrastructure, and other industrial uses. For instance, in February 2024, Finlay, a UK-based manufacturer of mobile crushing and screening equipment, launched the J 1170+ and J 1170AS+ jaw crusher models, engineered to provide higher production capacity, improved reduction ratios, and greater versatility for crushed stone processing at quarries and mining sites. These new models allow mining and construction companies to achieve more efficient aggregate production and produce higher-quality materials for infrastructure projects.

In October 2024, Arcosa, Inc., a US-based infrastructure, transportation, and construction materials company, completed the acquisition of the crushed stone and aggregates business of Stavola Holding Corporation for US$1.2billion. Through this acquisition, Arcosa, Inc. aims to strengthen its position in the crushed stones market by incorporating Stavola Holding Corporation’s network of five hard rock natural aggregates quarries, twelve asphalt plants, and three recycled aggregates sites, thereby expanding its product portfolio and geographic presence in the New York-New Jersey metropolitan area. Stavola Holding Corporation is a US-based construction materials company with vertically integrated aggregates and asphalt operations serving the Northeastern United States.
