Global Long Steel Market Hits New High | Arcelor Mittal, Baowu Steel Group Corporation Limited, Gerdau S.A., HeSteel Group Company Limited, Hyundai Steel Co., Ltd, Nippon Steel Corporation

According to a research report by Spherical Insights & Consulting, the global long steel market is projected to grow from USD 493.7 billion in 2021 to USD 728.9 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period.

The global long steel market is projected to reach USD 728.9 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030. This steady growth is primarily fueled by the surge in construction and infrastructure development activities across both developed and emerging economies. As urbanization intensifies and the global population continues to rise, the demand for residential, commercial, and public infrastructure is accelerating, thereby increasing the need for long steel products such as rebar, wire rods, rails, and structural sections. Additionally, rapid industrialization, particularly in Asia-Pacific and the Middle East, is contributing significantly to market expansion, as these regions undertake large-scale industrial and transportation projects. Long steel's strength, durability, and versatility make it an essential component in construction and manufacturing sectors. However, the long steel market has not remained unaffected by global disruptions. The COVID-19 pandemic posed substantial challenges, including supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and project delays, all of which temporarily hampered production and demand. Despite these setbacks, the market is expected to rebound, driven by post-pandemic recovery plans, government infrastructure investments, and ongoing technological advancements in steel manufacturing processes.

Market Overview
Long steel products, commonly known as long products in the steel industry, encompass items such as wire, rods, rails, bars, and various structural steel sections and girders. These products play a vital role in the fabrication of structural units used in bridges, buildings, and infrastructure projects. Long steel is typically produced from blooms and billets, which are rolled into bars, rods, and structural shapes. A key driver of the long steel market is the increasing volume of global infrastructure development, including residential, commercial, and industrial projects. The market is highly fragmented, comprising numerous well-established players competing for market share. The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is witnessing particularly strong growth due to rapid urbanization and a surge in construction activity. Long steel is essential for the construction and infrastructure sectors, and its demand continues to rise as builders and contractors increasingly rely on it for projects such as metro rail systems, dedicated freight corridors, and the repair and modernization of highways and railway bridges. These infrastructure advancements are creating new growth opportunities for the industry. Additionally, expanding rail projects in regions like South Asia and Oceania are encouraging manufacturers to scale up their presence and production capacity to meet rising demand.
