Description

The global Long Steel market, valued at approximately USD 620.6 billion in 2024, is anticipated to expand with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.30% over the forecast period 2024-2034. Long steel products, including rebar, wire rod, and rails, are pivotal to the infrastructure and construction industries due to their strength and durability. The market is driven by surging investments in infrastructure development, urbanization, and industrialization globally, which are boosting the demand for high-strength and sustainable construction materials.

The construction sector’s escalating demand for rebar and other long steel products has been a primary catalyst for market growth. Additionally, the expansion of transportation networks has augmented the use of rails and wire rods. While the basic oxygen furnace remains a dominant manufacturing process, the adoption of electric arc furnaces is gaining traction due to their energy efficiency and lower carbon emissions. Despite facing challenges like fluctuating raw material prices and environmental regulations, the market benefits from advancements in steel recycling technologies and the rising inclination toward sustainable construction practices.

Regionally, Asia Pacific leads the global Long Steel market, driven by rapid urbanization, significant infrastructure investments, and robust construction activities in countries like China and India. North America and Europe also hold substantial shares, supported by established infrastructure and a focus on modernization projects. Meanwhile, emerging economies in Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are experiencing steady growth, spurred by increasing industrialization and urban expansion.
