Global growth on the horizon
According to analysts, the global light gauge steel framing market is projected to grow to an approximate value of $52.8 billion AUD over the next five years, signalling a strong Compound Annual Growth Rate of 4% in that same period.
Asia-Pacific reigns supreme
It is expected that the Asia-Pacific region will retain its standing as the largest market due to an increase in construction activities – particularly commercial buildings – along with investments in infrastructure both privately and publicly. However, globally, the residential sector is set to see the most growth thanks to continued and increasing demand for houses built with steel frames and trusses.
Australian trends mirror report findings
At AusSteel, we are seeing evidence of this trend continuing daily, with sustainability, durability, and quick construction turnaround being key factors of importance to our customers and partners. Customers are looking to steel framing options for minimal waste during the design and construction of their build, while retaining the high quality of construction and design flexibility that steel framing affords.
