Global Heavy Rails Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030


According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Heavy Rails market size was valued at USD 8763.6 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 10750 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.0% during review period.

This report studies the Heavy Rail market. Rail is the most important component of rail track system. The train will run on the parallel rails, carrying passengers and freight. Fixed on the sleepers, rails pass the load of trains to sleepers.

Rails generally described and specified by their weight per unit length. The minimum weight per meter of rail required depends on the maximum axle load of the trains that will run on the track. Generally, the heavier the rails and the rest of the track work, the heavier and faster the trains these tracks can carry.

Rails represent a substantial fraction of the cost of a railway line. Only a small number of rail sizes are made by steelworks at one time, so a railway must choose the nearest suitable size.

Heavy Rail is defined as the Rail weight is higher than 30 Kg/m.

The classification of Heavy Rail includes 30-40 Kg/m Rail, 40-50 Kg/m Rail, 50-60 Kg/m Rail and Above 60 Kg/m Rail. The proportion of 30-40 Kg/m Rail is about 30%.

China is the largest supplier of Heavy Rail, with a production market share nearly 35%. Europe is the second largest supplier of Heavy Rail, enjoying production market share nearly 28%.

Europe is the largest consumption place, with a consumption market share nearly 29%. Following Europe, China is the second largest consumption place with the consumption market share of 29%.

Ansteel, EVRAZ, BaoTou Steel and ArcelorMittal are the top 4 players of Heavy Rail, with about 47% market shares.
