SUMMARY

Construction outlook in China among world's best

The $5 trillion construction industry in China is one of the fastest growing in the world. A rapidly expanding domestic economy, continuing efforts to upgrade physical infrastructure, sustained strength in foreign investment funding, healthy demand for Chinese manufactured goods, ongoing urbanization and further population and household growth will all boost construction spending in China.

Nonbuilding construction to be fastest growing sector

Nonbuilding construction will be the fastest growing sector through 2012. Growth will be fueled by government initiatives to expand and upgrade the country's physical infrastructure, especially its highways, railways and subway systems. Utilities construction will also contribute to nonbuilding construction spending gains, as the government continues to increase the country's power generation capacity and improve electricity transmission networks, as well as expanding and improving municipal water supply coverage and natural gas distribution.

Nonresidential building represents the largest spending category in China, reflecting the nation's emergence as an economic powerhouse over the last decade and its position as the largest producer of manufactured goods in the world. China's ongoing industrialization and modernization will help to boost investment in manufacturing, office and commercial facilities.

Real residential building construction expenditures will grow at a more modest pace through 2012. Advances will be spurred by rising employment and personal income levels, further urbanization of the population, and increasing average per-capita living space in both urban and rural areas. However, government efforts to prevent the real estate market from overheating (for example, raising the one-year lending rate and restricting second home purchases) and a deceleration in household growth will provide an offsetting influence, preventing demand from advancing at a faster rate through 2012.

Study coverage

Worldwide, producers and distributors of construction materials, machinery, packaging and other products recognize the tremendous market potential that China has to offer. However, planning for expansion into China is difficult due to the lack of reliable market information. Freedonia's China studies provide you with the information and analysis you need to plan for your company's positioning in China. Freedonia has broken down construction activity in China in a helpful fashion.
