What sets this year’s expansion apart is the booming demand from school construction. “Against the backdrop of urbanization and rural education facility upgrading, steel structure schools have become the preferred choice for local governments,” said Li Ming, a senior analyst at CSSA. “Compared to traditional concrete schools, steel structure buildings can resist magnitude 8 earthquakes, be prefabricated off-site to minimize on-campus disruption, and be expanded easily—all while aligning with national low-carbon goals. This has spurred a surge in *wholesale supply steel structure school* orders, with major suppliers reporting a 150% increase in inquiries since early 2025.”
