Recent Development In Translucent Concrete Market

• Quikrete Holdings, in December 2024, acquired Summit Materials, which is a sign of increasing consolidation of the building industry. The transaction can influence the market for clear concrete since the enlarged portfolio provides easier access to new materials such as clear concrete. With increased market presence, Quikrete and Summit can champion wider adoption of energy-efficient materials, using their combined strength for green buildings.
