The demand analysis of scaffolding in the international construction market in 2025 can be discussed in detail from the aspects of market size, regional distribution, demand drivers, competition landscape and future trends.

Market size and regional distribution
In 2023, the global scaffolding market size has exceeded US$20 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of about 5-6%. Among them, the Asia-Pacific region (especially China, India and Southeast Asia) accounts for more than 40% of the market share, becoming the world’s largest market. It is estimated that by 2031, the global scaffolding market sales will reach US$13.15 billion to US$13.38 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 6.5% to 4.4%.

Demand drivers
‌Urbanization and infrastructure investment‌: The increase in global urbanization rates and the continued release of infrastructure demand in emerging markets have driven the growth of the scaffolding market. China’s new urbanization and old community renovation policies in the “14th Five-Year Plan” directly drove the demand for scaffolding‌.
‌Green and safety standard upgrade‌: The improvement of environmental protection requirements has led to the elimination of traditional steel pipe scaffolding, and the demand for lightweight, recyclable aluminum alloy scaffolding and new composite materials has increased. At the same time, strict safety regulations have promoted the development of high-load-bearing capacity, modular design scaffolding‌.
‌Technological innovation and intelligence‌: The application of the Internet of Things and AI technology has improved the intelligence level of scaffolding and improved construction safety and efficiency‌.
