Singapore Steel Market Report Overview
The Singapore steel market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 3.20% during the forecast period of 2026-2035. Market growth is being driven by strong construction activity supported by Singapore’s large infrastructure pipeline, including the development of Changi Airport Terminal 5, Marina Bay Sands expansion, major MRT projects, and HDB BTO housing developments. Rising demand from mechanical engineering, automotive, metalware, and domestic appliances sectors is also contributing to the expansion of the Singapore steel market.
Key Market Trends and Insights
- Long Steel is expected to account for the largest Singapore steel market share by product over the forecast period, driven by the dominant role of rebars and wire rods in Singapore's major construction projects including Changi Airport Terminal 5, HDB BTO housing, MRT extensions, and public infrastructure, with BRC Asia's S$2.2 billion order book at year-end 2025 reflecting sustained demand.
- Carbon Steel is expected to account for the largest Singapore steel market share by type over the forecast period, driven by its dominant use across construction, mechanical engineering, and manufacturing applications, representing the broadest and most cost-effective steel grade for Singapore's infrastructure and industrial sectors.
- Construction is expected to account for the largest Singapore steel market share by application over the forecast period, reflecting the dominant role of steel reinforcement bars, structural sections, and flat steel products in Singapore's historically high S$50.5 billion construction demand in 2025 and the BCA's projected S$47-53 billion demand for 2026.

Key Trends and Recent Developments
The Singapore steel market is driven by Singapore's large-scale construction programme including Changi Airport Terminal 5, Marina Bay Sands expansion, Thomson-East Coast Line Extension, and HDB's commitment to 55,000 new flats in 2025-2027, the growing sustainability agenda in Singapore's construction sector, and steady demand from mechanical engineering, automotive, and domestic appliances manufacturing.
The Building and Construction Authority announced at the BCA-REDAS Built Environment and Real Estate Prospects Seminar on January 22, 2026 that Singapore's construction demand was projected to remain steady at S$47-53 billion in 2026, similar to 2025. Actual 2025 construction demand reached S$50.5 billion, within the BCA's earlier forecast. Key steel-intensive projects supporting 2026 construction demand include Changi Airport Terminal 5, Marina Bay Sands expansion, New Tengah General Hospital, Downtown Line 2 Extension, and Thomson-East Coast Line Extension.
BRC Asia Limited, Singapore's leading steel reinforcement bar supplier, reported record net profit of S$94.1 million for FY2025 (ended September 30, 2025), with a sales order book of S$2.2 billion at year-end 2025. BRC Asia's order book, representing approximately 17 months of revenue, was supported by major Singapore infrastructure and housing projects. In July 2024, BRC Asia won the S$570 million steel reinforcement contract for the Changi Airport Terminal 5 substructure, the single largest contract in the company's history.
The Singapore Green Building Council and HH Group co-hosted the "Forging a Low-Carbon Future with Sustainable Steel" seminar on October 9, 2025, bringing together industry leaders to advance Singapore's green and low-carbon steel agenda in the built environment. The seminar reflects the growing importance of sustainable steel certification and low-embodied-carbon construction materials under Singapore's Green Building Masterplan and Singapore Green Plan 2030, which target 80% of new developments as Super Low Energy buildings by 2030.
The Building and Construction Authority announced at the January 23, 2025 BCA-REDAS Seminar that Singapore's 2025 construction demand was projected at S$47-53 billion in nominal terms, 40-47% higher than 2024's S$32-38 billion range. The strong 2025 demand was attributed to Changi Airport Terminal 5 contract awards, Marina Bay Sands expansion, Cross Island Line Phase 2, Woodlands Checkpoint extension, Tuas Port development, and HDB BTO housing, all driving sustained rebar, structural steel, and flat steel product demand.
Construction - Dominant Application Through Changi T5, HDB Housing, and MRT Infrastructure
Construction is the dominant Singapore steel market application, driven by Singapore's large infrastructure pipeline including Changi Airport Terminal 5, MRT extensions, HDB's 55,000 new flats in 2025-2027, and the Tuas Port development.
