The North America steel rebar market size is estimated to reach USD 16.23 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 4.1% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising investments in construction and infrastructure development projects are anticipated to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period. Various infrastructure development projects dedicated to boosting economic growth in North America are projected to augment the demand for steel rebar in the region over the forecast period. For instance, in May 2022, the Mexican government announced the allocation of USD 30.0 billion for infrastructure development in southeast Mexico.
The investment is expected to help in the development of airports, railways, ports, and the modernization of customs offices in southeast Mexico. In addition, investments in industrial units are expected to further boost the market growth in the region over the coming years. For instance, in June 2022, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) signed a contract worth USD 173.0 million with Lynas Rare Earths Ltd. to develop a rare earth refinery in Texas. This refinery is expected to manufacture dysprosium and terbium.The U.S. held the largest revenue share in 2021 and rising investments for the revival of public infrastructures are expected to fuel the product demand over the forecast period.
For instance, under the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act, USD 110.0 billion is allocated for rebuilding bridges and roads. In addition, the government is planning to invest USD 25.0 billion in airports and USD 17.00 billion in waterways & port infrastructure.The market is competitive due to the presence of numerous players. Theseplayers indulge in mergers and acquisitions to stay competitive. For instance, in January 2022, Knight’s Companies completed the acquisition of Sovereign Steel, a rebar and steel rebar fabricator. This acquisition is anticipated to help Knight Companies to provide additional product lines to its customer and also, to participate in the forthcoming infrastructure projects.

The construction segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2024 and this trend is expected to continue over the forecast period due to the rising construction activities
For instance, On June 5, Deacero announced a USD 600 million investment in a new steel plant in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico, set to begin production in February 2026, adding 1 million tons of steel output. The facility will focus on green steel using electric-arc furnace technology, reducing CO2 emissions while meeting domestic demand and eliminating imports.
Based on country, rising construction spending in the country is expected to boost the product demand during the forecast period. For instance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the growth of construction spending in the country is registering growth every year. For instance, on a y-o-y basis the U.S. construction spending rose by 6.4% in 2023.
Increasing investments in the construction and infrastructure industries have forced steel rebar manufacturers to expand their manufacturing capacity
For instance, in April 2022, Nucor announced to invest USD 350 million in the new steel rebar micro mill located in North Carolina, U.S.
Fiber-reinforced Polymer rebars (FRP) actas a substitute for steel rebars owing to their lightweight, high-strength, high corrosion resistance, and thermal resistance
Steel rebars are being replaced with FRPs as they are corrosive and it impacts the life expectancy of reinforced concrete structures
