DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Use of High-Quality Merchant Bars in the Construction Sector will Boost Market Growth 

Best quality steel bars are cooled down using "Thermax" water jet technology to provide merchant bar quality, which has a soft inner core that can endure any type of stress or strain while the exterior surface hardens to safeguard the building and create a super-strong structure. Especially strong, ductile, fatigue-resistant, earthquake-resistant, and corrosion-resistant merchant bar quality are available. Building bridges, flyovers, dams, hydropower plants, industrial buildings, tall skyscrapers, quick transportation networks, and other constructions now requires them as a common practice. 

Investing to Build New Plants Will Drive Market Expansion

The steel industry's major players are investing to build new plants as a result of the rise in demand for steel rebar. The increase in production is a sign of escalating consumer demand. To lower the cost of producing structures, a number of institutions, businesses, and research firms are working to find ways to lengthen their useful lives. This is anticipated to have a favorable impact on the demand for fiber-reinforced polymer rebars (FRP). FRP rebars can lengthen the lifespan of structures and lower their maintenance and life-cycle costs. In other areas, the demand for merchant bar quality has been slow but positive.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Steel Bar Prices Will Restrain Market Growth 

Merchant bar quality is heavy and challenging to move. Additionally, it is costly and drives up the overall cost of building. Steel that has been exposed to air and moisture may develop rust, which will raise the price of a bar. This rust can put internal strain on the nearby concrete, leading to fissures in the building and preventing market expansion.
