ALUMINUM in first place among building materials
In a scale of use, aluminum is in first place with a share of 53%, followed by wood at 19%, wood-aluminum at 15% and PVC which stops at 7%.
In October 2018, thanks to the collaboration with FederlegnoArredo, the ANCE Research Center developed a survey that was brought to the attention of all those associated construction companies to understand which materials were used most by businesses for the construction of residential and non-residential buildings.
The survey was successful and will also be valid for the two-year period 2018-2020, with a particular focus not only on completed constructions but also on those being completed.
Furthermore, it emerged that the use of aluminum for the realization of the fixtures reaches the 90% share, both in the residential and non-residential market.
As far as housing is concerned, in recent years it has depopulated the use of materials such as reinforced concrete and reinforced concrete / steel which have reached a utilization rate of over 70%. Followed by 14% reinforced concrete and wood for the non-residential sector, at 3%.
While on the one hand the use of wood has dropped, for the finishes of residential buildings it is able to withstand 24%, only after ceramics at 61%. The non-housing sector, on the other hand, is finding an increasingly significant use of the resins followed extremely by ceramics.
