No.1 market share for rebar in Japan

Concrete reinforcing bars (rebars), the mainstay of our group, are fundamental materials for construction and civil engineering work, and will continue to play an important role in supporting society. In Japan, the four regions of Kanto, Chubu, Kansai, Chushikoku (Chugoku and Shikoku) and Kyushu are major areas of demand for rebars where large cities are located, accounting for approximately 70% of domestic demand.
The Kyoei Steel Group is the only steel minimill company that has production and sale bases in all the four regions, and maintains the largest domestic market share of concrete reinforcing bars.*
