The 3rd edition of the High Rise Construction Market Report – UK 2021-2025 incorporating original input and primary research, the report should be of particular interest to construction companies and their supply chains, housing associations, developers and investors and key stakeholders and companies operating in both the residential and commercial property markets.
The construction of high-rise buildings has increased considerably in recent years, with a rise in both the number and height of buildings being constructed. The pipeline of high-rise buildings across the UK remains strong, with around 550 in the development pipeline, of which around 58% are in London, although projects in London account for more than three quarters of total pipeline value.
This report evaluates growth in high-rise development in terms of numbers of annual completions 2016-2020 and by the gross value of annual project pipelines. Estimated forecasts are given to 2025, although data will change as new projects enter the pipeline while others complete.
The Marketing to Contractors & Housebuilders feature (which is sponsored by South East Construction Expo) in the Sectors section of our Directory provides an overview of the sector, including
details of its various media channels and events, together with access to our downloadable database of those with responsibility for procurement at key firms.
