Steel is a major raw material required for the manufacturing of steel fences. Suppliers focus on offering high-quality steel materials for processing. The quality of steel and other raw materials has a significant impact on the final quality of steel fences. Choosing superior-quality steel materials with desired strength controls the overall strength, corrosion resistance, and durability of fences. Fluctuations in the prices of raw materials, particularly steel, impact the final price of these fences. Manufacturers produce steel fences by using different methods. The process of manufacturing steel fencing starts with a large spool of steel. The steel passes through a series of machines where it is cut and processed to form the different types of steel fences.
Based on the type, the US and Mexico steel fence materials market is segmented into chain link fence, barbed wire, concertina, welded fence, hexagonal mesh, galvanized steel pipes for fencing, painted prefabricated fences, and others. The barbed wire segment accounted for the largest US and Mexico steel fence materials market share in 2023. There are several types of barbed wires. The cables can be single, double, round, flat, or half-round. Barbed wire makes an area secure and protected, as perpetrators attempting to climb over the fence will suffer skin injuries, extending to the underlying tissue, due to sharp barbs. These wires find applications in sectors such as commercial, agriculture, residential, industrial, sports, and transportation
Based on the end user, the US and Mexico steel fence materials market is segmented into agriculture, residential, commercial, and industrial and institutional.
