Infrastructure Concrete Fiber Market Report 2026

The infrastructure concrete fiber market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.83 billion in 2025 to $2 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising use of fiber-reinforced concrete in infrastructure, growing demand for impact-resistant concrete, increasing application of fibers in bridges and highways, adoption of durable concrete solutions, expansion of pre-blended fiber additives.

The infrastructure concrete fiber market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.87 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for high-performance fibers, growth in long-span infrastructure projects, rising use of smart fiber technologies, development of eco-friendly concrete fibers, increasing application in specialized construction sectors. Major trends in the forecast period include development of fiber-reinforced concrete mixes, implementation of smart fiber dispersion techniques, adoption of AI-based performance analysis in concrete, expansion of IOT-enabled concrete monitoring systems, growth of sustainable fiber materials.

The growth of the infrastructure concrete fiber market is expected to be driven by the rising number of infrastructure development projects. These projects involve large-scale efforts to build or upgrade critical physical systems such as transportation, energy, water, and communication networks to foster economic and social advancement. Rapid urbanization fuels these projects by increasing the need for expanded physical systems to support growing populations and ensure efficient urban functions. Infrastructure concrete fiber enhances these projects by increasing the strength, durability, and crack resistance of concrete structures, resulting in more robust and low-maintenance roads, bridges, tunnels, and other vital infrastructure. For example, in July 2024, the UK’s Office for National Statistics reported that infrastructure investment in 2023 reached $17.25 billion (£13.8 billion) in constant prices, marking a 3.9% rise compared to 2022. Thus, the surge in infrastructure development is propelling the growth of the infrastructure concrete fiber market.

Leading companies in the infrastructure concrete fiber market are focusing on innovative solutions such as fiber-reinforced cement to boost structural durability, reduce cracking, and improve load-bearing capacity under challenging construction conditions. Fiber-reinforced cement is a composite material created by adding fibers to cement to enhance tensile strength, crack resistance, and overall durability. For instance, in September 2023, India-based Nuvoco Vistas Corporation Limited launched Duraguard microfibre cement, which offers improved strength and minimizes shrinkage cracks. This fiber-reinforced cement provides superior crack resistance, high strength, and long-lasting protection against seepage and thermal stress, leading to more durable, low-maintenance structures. Its main goal is to prolong building service life by reducing micro-cracks and enabling smoother, more resilient construction.

In September 2023, France-based manufacturer Compagnie de Saint-Gobain S.A. acquired Belgium-based Adfil NV for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to strengthen Saint-Gobain’s market leadership and foster growth by expanding its range of light and sustainable construction solutions, including a wider selection of concrete admixtures and fibers. Adfil NV specializes in synthetic infrastructure concrete fibers.

Major companies operating in the infrastructure concrete fiber market are NV Bekaert SA, ArcelorMittal Fibres, Sika AG, Adfil Ltd., Forta Corporation, Barchip Inc., ABC Polymer Industries LLC, Minifibers Inc., Nycon Corporation, Fibercon Industries Limited, CreaFill Fibers Corporation, BASF MasterFiber, Propex Operating Company, Euclid Chemical Company, Elkem Silicon Materials, Owens Corning, Nippon Steel Fibers, Kordsa Teknik Tekstil A.S., Sunco Fiber, Jinjiang Lucky Textile Fiber Co., Ltd.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

Tariffs are influencing the infrastructure concrete fiber market by raising costs for imported steel fibers, synthetic fibers, glass fibers, and specialty additives essential for reinforced concrete applications. Fiber-reinforced mixes, pre-blended additives, and shotcrete applications in Asia-Pacific, Europe, and North America are most affected due to high import reliance. Nevertheless, tariffs are encouraging local fiber production, regional blending operations, and innovation in high-performance concrete formulations, improving long-term supply reliability.

Infrastructure concrete fiber refers to fibrous materials added to concrete to improve its structural characteristics, including reinforcement, crack resistance, durability, and impact absorption. These fibers are typically utilized in infrastructure projects such as highways, bridges, tunnels, and railways to enhance performance under heavy loads and challenging environmental conditions.

The primary types of concrete fiber used in infrastructure include steel fiber, synthetic fiber, glass fiber, natural fiber, and others. Steel fiber is composed of high-tensile steel filaments embedded in concrete to provide multidirectional reinforcement. These fibers offer several benefits, including improved reinforcement, increased impact resistance, crack control, enhanced durability, and thermal management support. They come in various lengths, such as short, medium, and long fibers, and are extensively applied in highways, bridges, railways, and other areas across industries such as construction, infrastructure, mining, aerospace, and automotive.North America was the largest region in the infrastructure concrete fiber market in 2025. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period.
