The Middle East & Africa Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars market was valued at US$ 26.55 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 46.13 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.6% from 2022 to 2028.
Increasing Demand for Lightweight, High Strength, and Non-Corrosive Rebars Fuel the Middle East & Africa Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Rebars Market
Increasing corrosion issues in conventional reinforcement techniques have enhanced product penetration in the infrastructure repairing industry. FRP rebar is corrosion resistant, where steel will eventually rust and crack the concrete it is supposed to reinforce, which leads to structural life up to 2 times longer when FRP rebar is used. Resistance to corrosion and abrasion, low weight, and high tensile strength are major factors stimulating industry growth. Over 25% of the overall construction failures are due to corrosion. Inefficiency pertaining to steel reinforcement causing concrete failures will positively influence the upgraded non-corrosive construction material adoption.
Though FRP rebars are relatively expensive compared to traditional steel rebars, they cut down the cost of maintenance for any project and provide additional benefits like more strength and easier installation during construction due to their high tensile strength and low weight. Moreover, these rebars are not affected by external factors such as corrosion and harsh environmental conditions, they increase the lifespan of any structure, and maintain structural integrity. Additionally, it is easier to transport and handle. Due to these factors, the demand for lightweight, high-strength, and non-corrosive rebars is increasing and is driving the growth of the Middle East & Africa FRP rebars market.
