In 2021, the structural metal products market stood at $448.3 billion, and it is expected to grow at a rate of 6.1% from 2021 to 2030, to acquire $764.0 billion in revenue, attributed to the rising construction activities led by infrastructure development worldwide. The surge in demand for structural metal products is attributed to their physical properties, including pest and mold resistivity, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness, propelling the market. The government-led infrastructure development projects such as railways and highway construction drive the market.
The infrastructure development activities to manage the transportation drive the structural metal products market. For instance, the massive usage of metal liners, casings, plates, culverts and bar joints in highway, railways and bridge construction leads to the expansion of the market. The government support to fund these infrastructure projects results in growing opportunities for businesses to generate more revenue. Highway construction activities are expected to rise in the near future, resulting in market proliferation.

Under the product segment, the support and structure category generate a significant structural metal products market revenue amounting to more than 35%. There is an expected increase in the demand for these products, majorly for the construction of staircases, sheds, decks, and skyscrapers. Fabricated metal structural beams are more preferred in construction due to their long life, good grip and fire resistance properties. Numerous fabricated metallic supports and structures companies are established in Germany, attributed to the rise in construction for residential and construction buildings.
Structural steel products have acquired a significant share of the structural metal products market. It is attributed to the high-temperature commercial use for steel and other refractory materials as they bear fire-resistivity. After lifting COVID lockdown, the construction companies started bespoke building materials for large structures such as quarantine facilities and apartments. Construction companies utilize ready-to-use steel structures, as it takes less time-consumption to assemble.
The fabricated structural aluminum products are expected to retain their position as critical building materials in the structural metal products market. The demand for the aluminum category is expected to increase, attributed to its lightweight, durability, strength and corrosion-resistivity properties. The aluminum structures are weighed one-half to two-thirds in comparison to steel structures. Aluminum structures are more economically efficient and energy-efficient than steel and concrete structures. Aluminum structures can be highly utilized to qualify the green building status under the LEED standards.
The residential sector holds the largest structural metal products market share. It is expected to retain the same position in the coming future. The rising infrastructure development activities in Africa are attributed to the increased requirement for residential buildings resulting in market expansion. Moreover, the market is expected to witness a surge in non-residential sectors. For instance, the Belt and Road Initiative will increase China’s import and export of steel for infrastructure development activities within the region. The construction of roads, railways and ports will result in a market boom.
North America dominates the structural metal products market, attributed to multi-story residential construction. The demand for structural steel is rising in the region, attributed to the construction of open-air stadiums, power plants, petroleum refineries and power plants. The non-structural applications of structural steel include the construction of transportation facilities, marine structures, rack systems and mobile homes. The APAC structural metal products market is expected to grow at a rapid rate in the near future.
Therefore, the surge in infrastructure development activities attributed to the construction industry’s expansion led to market penetration.
