India is the fastest pre-engineered building or PEB market in the world, growing at a rate of 9.5% which is more than 8.5% growth rate of the Chinese PEB market. The PEB industry in India is expected to grow at the rate of 35% per annum in the next ten years. At present, 33% of the Indian construction industry is based on PEBs. Growing utilisation of PEBs across a wide range of end-user industries, including residential, commercial, industrial and warehousing, is a major driver of the growth of this market. Pre-engineered Building or PEB is a type of construction which involves the use of factory-built components, typically made of steel, which are designed to be easily assembled on-site. Major benefits of PEB are cost effectiveness, reduced time of construction, design flexibility and high durability and safety. Let’s have a look at the top 10 PEB companies in India.
