The steel fiber industry supplies steel fibers, which are small reinforcement elements made from steel, to the construction sector. Steel fibers are added to concrete to improve its strength, durability, and resistance to cracking. Their demand in construction is increasing due to benefits such as increased strength, crack control, durability, faster construction, and cost-effectiveness. Steel fibers are used in various applications like bridges, tunnels, industrial floors, and high-rise buildings. The demand for steel fibers is expected to remain strong as infrastructure development and the focus on longevity and sustainability continue.

The hooked segment accounted for the largest share of the overall Steel Fiber Market in 2018.
Hooked steel fiber is the most commonly used type of steel fiber. Hooked steel fiber is used in concrete reinforcement in hydraulic structures, airport and highway paving, industrial floor, refractory concrete, bridge decks, shotcrete linings, and explosion resistant structures. This steel fiber type is affordable and easily available. Hooked steel fiber substantially enhances initial crack strength and provides post-crack strength. Hooked steel fiber forms stronger joints, which results in low maintenance of the concrete structure.
Concrete reinforcement application is expected to register the highest CAGR in the Steel Fiber Market during the forecast period.
Flooring, roof slab, bridges, water tanks, sports stadium, conference halls, tunnel lining, dams, canal lining, and blast-resistant structures come under the concrete reinforcement application. Steel fiber is widely used in concrete reinforcement application in tunnel lining and flooring. Reinforced concrete is used widely as they have high resistance to tensile and shear stresses caused by natural calamities such as earthquakes, winds, and vibrations.
APAC is expected to be the largest market for steel fiber during the forecast period.
APAC is the largest Steel Fiber Market, in terms of both value and volume. China, India, and Japan are the fast-growing economies that contribute to the growth of the market in the region. There are many large steel fiber manufacturers in the APAC region, such as Stewols India (India), Hunan Sunshine Steel Fiber (China), and Yuthian Zhitai Steel Fiber Manufacturing (China)). The demand for steel fiber is expected to increase in the region during the forecast period with the increasing demand from infrastructure, construction, textile, and other industries.
