Rising Popularity of Off-site Construction Widening Application Scope for Concrete Reinforcing Fiber, Fact.MR Report
Increasing population along with industrialization and urbanization in several countries is set to drive the demand for concrete reinforcing fiber in construction applications. According to this updated industry report by Fact.MR, the global concrete reinforcing fiber market is calculated to reach US$ 3.25 billion in 2024 and climb to US$ 6.89 billion by the end of 2034.
Several macroeconomic factors, such as concentration on infrastructure development, particularly in potentially high-growth countries, are increasing the demand for concrete reinforcing fibers. These fibers help minimize time spent on different types of construction projects. In addition, rising expenditure on infrastructure and construction is also driving demand for concrete reinforcing fibers.
Key Takeaway from the Market Study:
Worldwide sales of concrete reinforcing fibers are estimated at US$ 3.25 billion in 2024.
The global concrete reinforcing fiber market is forecasted to reach a value of US$ 6.89 billion by the end of 2034.
The market has been projected to increase at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2024 to 2034.
Basalt fiber is projected to account for a 55.7% share of the global market by the end of 2034.
Demand for concrete reinforcing fiber in South Korea is approximated to increase at a CAGR of 10.7% from 2024 to 2034.
East Asia is evaluated to hold 24.6% of the global market revenue share by the end of 2034.
“Increasing sales of concrete reinforcing fiber are owing to rising preference for environmentally safe products in the construction sector and growing commercial construction activities across the world,” says a Fact.MR analyst.
Increasing Number of Construction Projects in North America
Demand for concrete reinforcing fibers in North America is projected to increase at a CAGR of 5.5% and reach a market value of US$ 1.21 billion by 2034-end. The growing count of construction projects along with the development of marine constructions, including bridges, tunnels, etc. are driving demand for concrete reinforcing fibers. Moreover, an expansion of the industrial sector is generating requirements for autoclaved aerated concrete in construction activities, which is further increasing demand for concrete reinforcing fibers.
