Guatemala Accelerates Port Expansion as Demand for U-Type Steel Sheet Piles Rises


u steel sheet pile

Guatemala is moving quickly with its port expansion projects to enhance their logistics capacity and position themselves as the nerve center in regional trade. With the modernization of big terminals, and several recently approved projects of coastal infrastructures, the consumption of the U-Type steel sheet pile has increased considerably in the construction industry.

Drivers of Increased Demand

The increase is driven by major coastal protection, port deepening and breakwater improvement works which all need strong, corrosion resistant hot rolled steel sheet pile systems. Engineers state that U steel sheet piles are the natural choice because of their high structural efficiency and simple installation even under difficult ocean conditions.
