Factory Pre-Batched Dry Mortar Market Report 2025

The factory pre-batched dry mortar market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $25.51 billion in 2024 to $27.31 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth during the historical period can be credited to increasing urbanization, expanding construction activities, ongoing infrastructure development, growth in residential projects, and a rise in repair and maintenance work.

The factory pre-batched dry mortar market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $35.38 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The projected growth in the forecast period is driven by the increased adoption of green building materials, a stronger emphasis on sustainable construction, growing demand for high-performance mortars, expansion of smart cities, and the rising need for rapid construction solutions. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the advancement of self-healing mortars, innovations in lightweight and insulating mortars, increased investment in R&D for eco-friendly additives, greater adoption of automation in production processes, and the expanded use of digital tools for quality control.

The expansion of infrastructure is expected to boost the factory pre-batched dry mortar market in the future. Infrastructure development involves the growth and improvement of essential facilities such as roads, bridges, buildings, and public utilities. This development is accelerating due to rapid urbanization, which raises the need for modern and efficient construction in expanding cities and towns. Factory pre-batched dry mortar supports infrastructure growth by providing consistent quality and reducing labor requirements on-site. Its ready-mix format minimizes material waste and simplifies large-scale construction projects. For example, in July 2025, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based government department, reported that total investment in the infrastructure sector reached £20.3 billion ($23.64 billion) in 2024, representing a 16.9% increase compared to 2023. Hence, the growth in infrastructure development is driving the factory pre-batched dry mortar market.

Leading companies in the factory pre-batched dry mortar market are concentrating on creating advanced products such as water-soluble packaging bags to improve user convenience and streamline on-site mixing and application. These biodegradable bags dissolve completely in water without leaving harmful residues, providing a clean and waste-free way to handle materials such as dry mortar in construction. For instance, in June 2023, Mondi Group, a UK packaging and paper company, partnered with Baumit Group, an Austrian building materials manufacturer, to introduce SolmixBag, a one-ply paper bag designed for storing and transporting dry construction materials such as cement and dry-mix mortar. When added to a mixer, the bag dissolves upon contact with water, allowing its fibers to integrate directly into the mix. This innovation eliminates packaging waste, reduces dust on construction sites, and cuts paper use by 20% compared to traditional two-ply bags. It enhances sustainability and convenience by operating with existing filling machines and reducing cleanup and disposal efforts for workers.

In March 2023, ARDEX Group, a German producer of high-performance building materials, acquired SCORE Tech Mortars for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition enables ARDEX to broaden its product range and market presence, as SCORE Tech Mortars will continue to operate independently under its current management while offering a complementary product lineup with minimal overlap to ARDEX’s existing portfolio. SCORE Tech Mortars is a China-based manufacturer of factory pre-batched dry mortar.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s recommendations and conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the construction sector, particularly in materials procurement and project costs. Higher duties on imported steel, aluminum, lumber, and machinery have driven up expenses for builders, contractors, and infrastructure developers, leading to increased project bids and delayed timelines. Construction equipment manufacturers face similar challenges, with tariffs on essential components and raw materials inflating production costs and squeezing margins. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs in international markets have curtailed exports of U.S.-made construction equipment and materials, further affecting profitability. The sector must now prioritize local sourcing, modular construction techniques, and supply chain diversification to control costs and ensure project viability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.

Factory pre-batched dry mortar is a ready-to-use blend of cement, sand, binders, and additives, produced under controlled conditions in a manufacturing facility. It only needs water to be mixed at the construction site to ensure uniform quality, minimize waste, and improve on-site productivity. It is widely used for applications such as masonry, plastering, tile installation, and structural repairs.

The main types of factory pre-batched dry mortars are ready-to-use mortars, specialty mortars, standard mortars, and high-performance mortars. Ready-to-use mortars are convenient, pre-mixed dry blends requiring only water on-site, offering consistent quality, reduced labor, and faster application for small or precise construction tasks. It is available in various packaging types, such as bags, bulk bags, containers, and customized packaging with different compositions, including cement-based mortars, polymer-modified mortars, lime-based mortars, and gypsum-based mortars. It is applicable in several applications, such as construction, infrastructure, and repair and maintenance, and is used by various end-users, including contractors, do-it-yourself (DIY) enthusiasts, manufacturers, government, and municipalities.
