Fiberglass Light Pole Market worth over $550 million by 2026

Fiberglass Light Pole Market size is set to surpass USD 550 million by 2026, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

The fiberglass light poles industry is expected to undergo a dynamic transition as advancements in fiberglass manufacturing technologies and improvements in material quality have spurred the deployment of fiberglass-based light poles. Fiberglass leverages the inherent strength of fiber-reinforced plastic to provide excellent resilience and sturdiness against harsh climatic conditions. Furthermore, it is non-conductive to electricity and ensures the minimum risks of electrical shocks during cases of power supply anomalies.
 

Growing investments in smart city projects to support the fiberglass light pole market

Smart lighting and smart poles are increasingly gaining traction among government agencies for their implementation in smart cities. Smart lighting has been recognized as one of the most actionable and ready to implement technologies in urban cities, leading to Low-Carbon Economies (LCEs) and reducing the environmental pollution. This has led to an increase in the deployment of fiberglass poles for smart lighting purposes.

Square straight fiberglass light poles are preferred by architects and designers due to their modern design

The square straight fiberglass light pole market is projected to grow at 4% CAGR during 2020-2026 driven by rising demand for modern design poles from architects, planners, and engineers. The square straight fiberglass pole features a robust & composite structure that makes it an effective alternative and can be embedded directly into the soil. Furthermore, its contemporary design and lightweight structure offer an easy installation. Companies operating in the market offer a wide range of square straight lighting poles. For instance, Valmont Industries, Inc. provides Straight Square Series fiberglass lighting poles with a wide range of colors and sizes.
 

Growing demand for robust and durable lighting systems across commercial buildings to support the fiberglass light pole market growth

The commercial application held a market share of more than 30% in 2019. The growing market demand for robust & durable lighting systems across commercial facilities will fuel the segment growth. Fiberglass light poles offer durability and lightweight structure along with flexibility compared to other light poles. The lightweight nature of the pole eliminates the need to deploy heavy equipment for installation. The durability of fiberglass light poles enables them to withstand harsh climate conditions such as storm and heavy rains.
 

Anchor-based and direct bury fiberglass poles have gained more popularity for their commercial purposes. Direct bury fiberglass poles eliminate the need for base foundation due to their unique structure that can be mined directly into the soil. Furthermore, anchor-based fiberglass poles feature a metal base that can be bolted in a concrete foundation using anchor bolts. Fiberglass poles are specifically used in windy & harsh weather environments and are also a great choice for beachfront locations.
