Drivers & Restraints-
Rising Need for Hospitals, Schools, & Residences to Spur Growth
The expansion of the construction industry in developing nations is a major factor that is set to contribute to the steel wire market growth during the forthcoming years. Apart from that, the increasing infrastructural, residential, and commercial construction by the private firms and governments would propel growth. Coupled with this, the rising need for the residential sector, hospitals, and schools would surge demand for steel wires. They are applied in binding and reinforcement of rebar to keep the structures intact. They are also resistant to deformation, corrosion, and abrasion. Their high strength makes them suitable for usage in the construction of dams, towers, and bridges.
Steel wires when twisted together in the form of helix, give rise to the development of steel rope. However, steel ropes are being replaced by plastic ropes as the latter reduce axle load, provide stability, and lower weight of the machine. This factor may hinder the demand for steel wires in the near future.
