[184 Pages Report] The Pre-engineered Buildings Market size was estimated at USD 17.14 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 18.70 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 10.33% to reach USD 34.11 billion by 2030.

The pre-engineered buildings (PEBs) market encompasses the sale and distribution of pre-fabricated or pre-engineered building components. These components are designed and manufactured in a factory setting, then assembled on-site to create structures that are durable, cost-effective, and customizable. This market serves a broad range of applications, including commercial, industrial, warehouse, and infrastructural facilities. PEBs are utilized in various sectors, demonstrating diverse applications in commercial buildings (retail stores, office buildings), industrial facilities (factories, warehouses), infrastructural projects (airports, railway stations), and recreational structures (stadiums, arenas). The growth of the pre-engineered buildings market is influenced by several factors, including burgeoning industrialization coupled with rising investment in infrastructure, growing demand for sustainable lightweight buildings, and rising use of steel and highly recycled content in construction. However, the expansion of PEBs is hindered by the low thermal resistivity of pre-engineered buildings, the high susceptibility of pre-engineered buildings to corrosion, and fluctuations in steel prices. On the other hand, the emerging popularity of pre-engineered buildings toward green development, increasing demand for warehouses with the rise in e-commerce globally, the growing trend for eco-friendly and sustainable building practices, expanding acceptance of modular and hybrid structures, and integration of IoT and smart technology in building management systems presents potential opportunities for the PEBs market.

Structure: Increasing preference for single-story pre-engineered buildings for their quick construction and cost-effectiveness

Multi-story pre-engineered buildings are structures that consist of multiple floors or levels. They are designed to support various applications, such as offices, residential apartments, hotels, and shopping malls. The construction of these buildings leverages modular components that are often fabricated offsite, which allows for rapid assembly and reduced construction times. Businesses and developers prefer multi-story pre-engineered buildings requiring high-density construction within limited urban land spaces. This approach is also favored in scenarios where the rental yields and property values are substantially higher for vertical development. Single-story pre-engineered buildings typically consist of one-floor levels and are widely used in applications such as warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and showrooms. Their design prioritizes simplicity and functionality, enabling spacious interiors with high ceilings that facilitate the operation of heavy machinery and the storage of extensive inventories. These structures are preferred for industrial and warehouse purposes due to their quick construction and cost-effectiveness. Single-story buildings allow for easy expansion and adaptability to accommodate the changing needs of businesses. They are especially suitable where larger floor plates are needed without the constraints of internal columns. Compared to multi-story pre-engineered buildings, single-story buildings are simpler, faster to erect, and cost-efficient for large spaces.

Application: Expanding application of pre-engineered buildings in warehouses and industrial facilities to support heavy machinery

In the commercial sector, pre-engineered buildings serve various functions, including retail spaces, office complexes, and entertainment facilities. The preference for PEBs in commercial applications derives from their cost efficiency, reduced construction time, and flexibility in design. Clients often demand aesthetic appeal and functionality when it comes to commercial structures. Infrastructure-based pre-engineered buildings primarily include bridges, railway platforms, airports, and utility services facilities. These applications require PEBs to adhere to stringent safety standards and durability due to their public utility nature. Clients prioritize the longevity and strength of the construction in infrastructure projects. Warehouses and industrial facilities form a significant portion of the pre-engineered buildings market. These structures are mainly evaluated based on their functionality, space optimization, and ability to support heavy machinery and storage systems. Clients in this sector prioritize structural integrity, ease of maintenance, and expandability. Commercial PEBs emphasize aesthetics and modularity as business owners seek to attract customers and adapt to rapid market changes. Infrastructure-focused PEBs value safety and durability due to their public service role and the higher impact of environmental stresses. Meanwhile, warehouses and industrial PEBs are optimized for functional performance, maximizing storage capacity, and facilitating industrial operations.
