High-Growth Potential in Australia’s Building Materials Industry for Vietnamese Businesses

Australia’s construction sector drives the economy significantly.

Analysts project it will reach USD 523.88 billion by 2030, achieving a robust Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 8.4% from 2024 (NextMSC).

Government infrastructure investments and rising demand for residential and commercial buildings fuel this impressive growth.

Moreover, Australia’s population, expected to reach 30 million by 2030 (Credence Research), further stimulates construction activities.

Why the Building Materials Industry in Australia Offers Huge Opportunities for Vietnamese Businesses

The booming construction market creates abundant opportunities for Vietnamese enterprises in the building materials sector.

Australia currently imports a large portion of its building materials.

Reports estimate that around 60% of the annual $6 billion spent on construction materials comes from overseas suppliers (Australian Manufacturing Industry Forum, 2021).

As a result, Vietnamese manufacturers and suppliers can tap into a fertile market with growing demand.

Key Data Points Highlighting the Opportunity:

  • Significant Market Size: In 2022, the Australian construction materials market reached USD 2.1 billion.
    Research confirms a steady growth with a CAGR of 2.3% between 2017 and 2022 (Research and Markets).
  • Growing Import Reliance: Australia sources many essential building materials internationally.
    These include timber framing, steel, glass, aluminum, and prefabricated housing kits (Australian Manufacturing Industry Forum, 2021).
  • Vietnam as a Key Supplier: Vietnam currently supplies construction materials to Australia (Volza.com import data). This trade relationship lays a strong foundation for further expansion.
  • Strategic Alignment: The Australian government recognizes Vietnam as an important economic partner.
    Strategies aim to place each other among the top-ten trading partners and double two-way investments (DFAT)
  • Addressing Supply Chain Vulnerabilities: Global supply chain disruptions urge Australian businesses to seek reliable and diversified suppliers.
    Thus, Vietnamese manufacturers have an excellent opportunity to position themselves as trusted partners.

High-Potential Segments for Vietnamese Businesses

  • Processed Timber and Wood Products: Australia needs sustainable timber framing solutions.
    Vietnamese companies with strong forestry practices and advanced processing capabilities can fill this gap.
  • Ceramic Products and Tiles: Australia’s booming construction and renovation markets demand high-quality tiles and ceramics, where Vietnamese expertise excels.
  • Stone and Concrete Products: Infrastructure projects and residential developments continuously generate demand for processed stone and concrete products.
    Vietnam’s expanding production can meet this rising need.
  • Steel and Metal Components: Although Australia operates its own steel industry, demand persists for specialized metal components and structures.
    Vietnamese manufacturers can seize these niche opportunities.
  • Prefabricated Building Components: The Australian construction industry increasingly embraces prefabrication to boost efficiency and cut costs.

    Vietnamese companies producing modular elements and building kits can effectively supply this growing trend.
