“Upward penetration in end-use industries, increasing urbanization, upsurge in demand of non-corrosive materials, are the factors fueling the concrete fiber market growth, globally”
The market for concrete fiber is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.0% in terms of volume and 8.2% in terms of value, from 2016 to 2021. The concrete fiber market is growing as the demand for fiber reinforced concrete products is increasing in various end-use industries such as transport infrastructure, mining & tunnel, building & construction, and industrial flooring. High operating cost is restricting the growth of the market. High entry barriers for new players is a major challenge for the concrete fiber market.
“Steel fiber: The fastest-growing type of concrete fiber”
Steel fiber reinforced concrete is widely used in various construction and civil engineering applications such as industrial floors, pavements, tunneling, and highways-overlays. Steel fiber reinforced concrete has excellent tensile & flexural strength, shock & fatigue resistance, ductility, and high durability which enables it to provide concrete with enhanced toughness and post-crack load carrying capacity. Steel fibers used in concrete have equivalent diameters and length ranging from 1.5 mm to 2 mm and 7 mm to 7.5 mm. Also, these are typically added to concrete in low volume dosages (often less than 1%), and have been shown to be effective in reducing plastic shrinkage cracking.
“Asia-Pacific: The fastest-growing market for concrete fiber”
There is an increase in the demand for concrete fibers, especially in the emerging markets such as the Asia-Pacific and Middle East & Africa. In Asia-Pacific, India and China are gradually improving their infrastructure facilities such as roads, bridges, highways, and others. The rapidly growing demand in end-use industry, competitive manufacturing costs, and high economic growth rate favor the growth of the concrete fiber market in the Asia-Pacific region. These factors are attracting companies to make investments and expand their business in this region. The market players are focusing on this region for a higher market share and to increase their profitability.
