Concrete Fiber Global Market Report 2025

The concrete fiber market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.47 billion in 2024 to $2.72 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the increasing demand for durable and high-strength construction materials, rapid urbanization and global infrastructure development, a growing emphasis on cost-effective and sustainable building solutions, and the rising need for high-performance materials in transportation infrastructure.

The concrete fiber market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.96 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in large-scale infrastructure projects, particularly in emerging economies, growing awareness of the long-term cost advantages of fiber-reinforced concrete, and continuous advancements in concrete fiber technologies. Major trends in the forecast period include the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, innovation in fiber materials to enhance strength and crack resistance, technological progress in concrete formulations and mix designs, and the development of sustainable construction practices.

The increasing infrastructure development is expected to drive the growth of the concrete fiber market going forward. Infrastructure development refers to the construction and enhancement of essential facilities and systems, including transportation networks, buildings, utilities, and civil engineering projects that support economic growth and improve quality of life. Infrastructure development is rising due to urbanization and population expansion, which increase the demand for new construction projects to accommodate growing populations and modernize aging infrastructure systems. Concrete fibers enhance the strength, durability, and crack resistance of structures, ensuring longer-lasting roads, bridges, and buildings while improving structural integrity and reducing maintenance needs for faster and more cost-efficient infrastructure development. For instance, in July 2024, according to the Office for National Statistics, a United Kingdom-based national statistical institute, infrastructure investment reached £13.8 billion ($16.27 billion) in 2023, representing a 3.9% increase compared to 2022. Therefore, the increasing infrastructure development is driving the growth of the concrete fiber market.

Key companies operating in the concrete fiber market are focusing on establishing manufacturing facilities to meet the growing demand from the infrastructure and construction industries. A manufacturing facility is a dedicated site where raw materials are transformed into finished products using industrial processes and advanced equipment, supported by skilled personnel to ensure efficient production and quality control while fulfilling market demand. For instance, in April 2024, Sika AG, a Switzerland-based chemical company, inaugurated a state-of-the-art macrofiber production facility in Lima, Peru, to address the rising demand for synthetic macrofibers in Latin America, particularly from the mining and infrastructure sectors. The new facility strengthens Sika’s market position as a leading supplier by producing advanced synthetic macrofibers that enhance the durability and sustainability of concrete structures while minimizing construction time and costs. This initiative positions Sika to support expanding transportation infrastructure and mining operations throughout Latin America, with the global demand for macrofibers expected to grow significantly in the region at a compound annual growth rate of 25% over the next five years.

In May 2023, Sika AG, a Switzerland-based provider of specialty chemicals for construction and industrial applications, acquired MBCC Group for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition aimed to enhance Sika’s global presence, expand its range of products and solutions across the entire construction life cycle, and promote sustainable transformation in the construction sector by integrating innovative technologies to reduce carbon emissions and achieve operational synergies. MBCC Group is a Germany-based manufacturer of concrete reinforcement fibers.

Major players in the concrete fiber market are BASF SE, Saint-Gobain SA, CRH plc, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Holcim Ltd, Heidelberg Materials AG, CEMEX SAB de CV, Sika AG, DuPont de Nemours Inc, UltraTech Cement Limited, NV Bekaert SA, Etex Group, The Euclid Chemical Company, Ozinga Bros Inc, ABC Polymer Industries LLC, Pensmore Reinforcement Technologies LLC, Nycon Corporation, Fibercon International Inc, FORTA Corporation, BarChip Pty Ltd.

Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the concrete fiber market in 2024. North America is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period. The regions covered in concrete fiber report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa.

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.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the construction sector, particularly in materials procurement and project costs. Higher duties on imported steel, aluminum, lumber, and machinery have driven up expenses for builders, contractors, and infrastructure developers, leading to increased project bids and delayed timelines. Construction equipment manufacturers face similar challenges, with tariffs on essential components and raw materials inflating production costs and squeezing margins. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs in international markets have curtailed exports of U.S.-made construction equipment and materials, further affecting profitability. The sector must now prioritize local sourcing, modular construction techniques, and supply chain diversification to control costs and ensure project viability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.

The concrete fiber market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.

Concrete fiber is a reinforcement material incorporated into concrete to enhance its structural strength and durability. It increases tensile strength and minimizes cracking, ensuring long-term performance under stress. Concrete fiber helps distribute loads uniformly across the concrete matrix, improving overall stability. Its key advantage lies in providing greater resilience and toughness without altering the fundamental properties of concrete.

The primary types of concrete fiber include synthetic concrete fiber, steel concrete fiber, glass concrete fiber, natural fiber, and basalt fiber. Synthetic concrete fiber refers to man-made fibers, generally composed of materials such as polypropylene or nylon, that are added to concrete to improve its tensile strength, crack resistance, and durability. Its key applications include concrete slabs, sprayed concrete, precast concrete, screeds, extruded concrete, and others, and it is utilized across various end-use industries such as transport infrastructure, building and construction, mining and tunnel, industrial flooring, and others.
