Despite its strengths, the metal structure industry is not without challenges. One of the most significant is the volatility of raw material prices, particularly steel and aluminum. Global supply chain disruptions, trade restrictions, geopolitical conflicts, and natural disasters can lead to price spikes, affecting profitability and project budgets.
Labor shortages are another pressing issue. Skilled workers in welding, fabrication, and construction are in high demand but short supply in many regions. To address this, companies invest heavily in training programs, apprenticeships, and automation to bridge the gap.
