Prestressed concrete (PC) wire and strand is a medium of attaining force that assists in neutralizing external forces, including stress and compression, and provides optimal strength to buildings. It offers stability and resistance to extreme temperature, abrasion, water, lubricity, and crack. It is widely used in manufacturing precast concrete elements and poles, rock and soil anchors. At present, PC wire and strand is gaining immense traction in the construction industry across the globe.
The growing global population is resulting in the increasing construction of residential and commercial buildings. This represents one of the key factors positively influencing the market. In addition, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and a considerable rise in remodeling and renovation activities are catalyzing the demand for PC wires and strands across the globe. They are used for constructing various components, including segmental blocks, piers, and foundations, for providing stability to the structure. Along with this, the escalating demand for housing services and the growing business activities are increasing product sales. The rapid construction of flyovers, bridges, hospitals, hotels, auditoriums, heritage sites, shopping malls, and other public structures is also offering lucrative growth opportunities to manufacturers. Apart from this, the increasing popularity of prefab or offsite construction and the rising utilization of PC in crane beams, cement poles, multi-factory frameworks, and railway sleepers is offering a favorable market outlook. In line with this, continuous investments by governments of various countries in real estate and mega infrastructure projects to support economic growth are driving the market. Furthermore, leading market players are focusing on improving manufacturing technologies and introducing advanced product variants with optimal efficiency and strength, which is expected to propel market growth.
