1. Focus on technological innovation and deep cultivation of application

With the evolution of market demand and the change of industry development direction, it is necessary for steel enterprises to focus on technological innovation and application research. On the one hand, actively absorbing new materials, advanced processes, and intelligent manufacturing technologies to comprehensively improve the quality and performance level of steel structure products. On the other hand, strengthening interaction and cooperation with design and construction units, promoting the exchange of knowledge and experience, and thus promoting the wider and deeper application of steel structures in the field of construction.
2. Accurately optimize product structure and layout
Steel companies need to optimize the structure and layout of steel structure products accurately based on the specific needs of different industry sectors. Taking the construction industry as an example, emphasis should be placed on developing and promoting steel structure products that have high strength, good corrosion resistance, and are easy to install; In the automotive industry, the focus should be on developing lightweight and high-strength steel products. Through this targeted optimization strategy, the competitiveness of steel structure products in the market is enhanced, thereby expanding market share.
3. Fully promote the coordinated development of the industrial chain
Steel enterprises should strive to strengthen close cooperation and in-depth exchanges with upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain, and jointly promote the coordinated development of the industrial chain. Specifically, by optimizing the supply chain management mode, reducing the cost of procurement and improving the efficiency of production, the overall cost of steel structure products can be lowered. In addition, we will strengthen cooperation with design and construction units to ensure that steel structure buildings can operate in a coordinated manner from design planning, construction, to later operation and maintenance, forming an efficient development trend.
4. Vigorously strengthen talent cultivation and introduction
Currently, there is a severe shortage of professionals in the field of steel structures, which has formed certain constraints on the development of the industry. In this context, steel companies should increase their investment in the training and introduction of professionals in the field of steel structures. On the one hand, by establishing special scholarships and carrying out school enterprise cooperation, we aim to cultivate steel structure professionals who possess both solid professional knowledge and rich practical experience. On the other hand, actively introducing excellent steel structure professionals and technical teams from home and abroad, providing a solid talent guarantee for the sustained and stable development of the steel structure industry.
5. Actively expand application areas and market space
Steel companies should adopt a proactive attitude and strive to expand the application areas and market scope of steel structures. For example, in the field of civil housing, the leading role of demonstration projects can be leveraged, combined with policy incentives, to improve the acceptance of steel structure housing in the market and increase its application proportion. In the field of new energy, actively research and develop steel structure products suitable for new energy facilities such as wind power and photovoltaics. In the field of urban rail transit, promote the widespread application of steel structures in urban rail transit construction, and provide solid structural support for it.
In summary, the steel structure industry will face numerous development opportunities and challenges in 2025. Despite the slowdown in global economic growth and increased competition pressure in the domestic industry, the steel structure industry still has considerable development potential in the long run. In the future development process, the steel structure industry will continue to consolidate its important position in the construction field, making more outstanding contributions to the promotion of urbanization and infrastructure construction.
