The rising construction of commercial infrastructure is anticipated to drive growth in the concrete block and brick manufacturing market in the coming years. Commercial infrastructure refers to the essential physical systems and structures that support business activities and economic development. The demand for commercial infrastructure is growing due to rapid urbanization, which increases the need for office spaces, retail centers, and related facilities to serve expanding urban populations. Concrete bricks and blocks play a crucial role in these infrastructures because of their durability, which provides dependable structural support and reduces long-term maintenance costs. For example, according to the US Census Bureau in July 2025, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for public construction spending was about $511.6 billion in May, marking a 0.1% increase from the revised $511.3 billion in April. Hence, the expansion of commercial infrastructure is contributing to the growth of the concrete block and brick manufacturing market.

Key players in the concrete block and brick manufacturing market are prioritizing sustainable innovation to deliver eco-friendly and health-conscious construction solutions. Sustainable blocks are environmentally friendly building units produced using materials and methods that minimize environmental impact and promote resource efficiency. For instance, in June 2025, Star Cement Limited, an India-based cement manufacturer, introduced Star AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) Blocks. These blocks are manufactured in a fully automated, advanced facility featuring PLC controls and integrated network systems to ensure high production efficiency and precision. Automation also facilitates seamless packing, transfer, and direct loading onto transport vehicles, enabling fast and dependable dispatch.

In May 2023, Breedon Group, a UK-based construction materials firm, acquired Broome Bros. for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition expanded Breedon’s presence in South Yorkshire and enhanced its potential for increased earnings. It also complements Breedon’s integrated business model by strengthening downstream operations and boosting the use of its own upstream materials to improve profitability. Broome Bros. is a UK-based producer of concrete blocks.
