The steel roofing market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.82 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to population growth, climate change concerns, renovation and remodeling trends, increasing disposable income, focus on energy efficiency, global economic growth. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of smart roofing technologies, focus on weather-resilient and extreme climate solutions, introduction of pre-painted and pre-coated steel roofing products, rise in popularity of modular and prefabricated steel roofing systems, collaborations for sustainable roofing solutions.
An increase in investments in residential building construction is expected to drive the growth of the steel roofing market. Residential buildings are structures designed for accommodation, used for typical living purposes, which may or may not include cooking or dining facilities. This category encompasses various types of dwellings, including single-family homes, lodging, and rooming houses. Steel roofing materials are utilized in these constructions to cover rooftops, providing a cost-effective solution. For example, in July 2024, the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based statistical authority, reported that total government investment in infrastructure rose by 9.6% in 2022, reaching £26 billion (approximately $32.8 billion). This included £19.3 billion (around $24.4 billion) from central government and £6.7 billion (about $8.5 billion) from local government. Notably, transport projects accounted for £22.5 billion (roughly $28.5 billion), representing 74.2% of the total investment, which marked a 1.1 percentage point increase from the previous year. Thus, the rise in investments for residential building construction is propelling the growth of the steel roofing market.
Increasing renovation activities are expected to drive the growth of the steel roofing market in the future. Renovation involves improving or modifying a structure to enhance its functionality, aesthetics, or overall condition. Steel roofing is commonly used in renovation projects due to its durability and weather-resistant qualities, providing a reliable and contemporary solution for upgrading building structures. For example, a survey conducted by the Home Improvement Research Institute in May 2023 found that 62% of homeowners in the U.S. undertook a home improvement project in the past year. On average, these homeowners spent approximately $1,000 on renovations, repairs, and upgrades. Notably, there has been a significant trend toward smaller-scale projects, with 52% of homeowners investing under $500, indicating a collective effort to enhance their living spaces while staying within budget. Therefore, the increase in renovation activities is propelling the growth of the steel roofing market.
Product innovations are a significant trend gaining traction in the steel roofing market, with major companies actively introducing new offerings. For example, in September 2024, PPG, a U.S.-based coatings manufacturer, launched the PPG STEELGUARD 951 epoxy intumescent fire protection coating. This innovative product provides up to four hours of fire resistance for manufacturing facilities, expanding into a thick foam when exposed to heat. It allows for a dry-film thickness of up to 3,500 microns in a single application and comes with a lifetime warranty on coating integrity, highlighting PPG's commitment to quality and durability.
Major companies in the steel roofing market are entering strategic partnerships to develop groundbreaking cold-rolled roofing sheets that enhance durability and provide a competitive advantage. For instance, in October 2023, Titan Roofing Solutions LLC, a U.S.-based commercial roofing service provider, collaborated with Steel Tech Industries, a U.S.-based steel fabricating and construction company, to launch a new line of UltraGuard Cold-Rolled Roofing Sheets. This partnership combines Titan's innovative design capabilities with Steel Tech's advanced manufacturing techniques to create roofing sheets that deliver exceptional strength and longevity. The UltraGuard sheets feature a unique coating composed of 55% aluminum and 45% zinc, significantly boosting corrosion resistance and extending the lifespan of the roofing material by up to 200% compared to conventional options.
In February 2022, Tata Steel, an India-based steel manufacturer, finalized the acquisition of NINL (Neelachal Ispat Nigam Limited) for $1.6 billion. This strategic move aims to expand Tata Steel's presence in steel production, iron ore reserves, and land capacity for potential expansions. Neelachal Ispat Nigam Limited, a government-owned Indian company, specializes in manufacturing steel rods and roofing sheets.
