According to Business Market Insights’ research, 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, registering a CAGR of 9.6% from 2022 to 2028. Increasing application of FRP rebars in construction and increasing demand for lightweight, high strength, and non-corrosive rebars are the critical factors attributed to the Middle East & Africa Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars market expansion.
The construction industry is always searching for better alternatives to traditionally used materials like wood, steel, and aluminum. Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite material is emerging as a viable alternative for various infrastructure and building projects. FRP rebars are resistant to a wide range of chemicals and are not affected by oxidation or corrosion. For instance, fiberglass rebar can withstand harsh weather conditions, continuous rain, and water submerged conditions. FRP's durability makes it a preferred choice for many outdoor construction projects as they are easy to cut, shape, and install. Moreover, their minimal maintenance requirements lower overall construction costs.
Around the region, many more advanced countries rely on green construction methods to save resources and provide buildings with long service life. Thus, fiber-reinforced polymer rebars are becoming increasingly popular in constructing infrastructure, large structures, and commercial buildings.
Furthermore, rising construction spending and acceptance of FRP rebars for reinforcement purposes are projected to drive its demand in the construction industry. FRP rebars bond easily with concrete irrespective of pH, moisture, and other external factors. Advanced thermal compatibility also offers zero stress while responding to temperature changes, which is expected to influence the FRP rebar market over the forecast period positively. Additional advantages of FRP rebars include excellent quality control with reduced transportation costs which is slated to favor its demand in the construction industry and is driving the market growth. This is expected to drive the Middle East & Africa Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars market during the forecast period.
On the contrary, durability issues in FRP rebars hurdles the growth of Middle East & Africa Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars market.
