As sustainability continues to reshape the global construction landscape, ground screws are steadily gaining recognition as a practical, low-impact alternative to traditional concrete foundations. Recent market analyses indicate that the global ground screw sector is expected to maintain a healthy growth rate of around 7–8% through 2030, supported by rising demand from the renewable energy industry and the broader shift toward environmentally responsible building methods.

Ground screws, have become particularly relevant as developers and contractors search for foundation solutions that reduce soil disturbance and shorten installation timelines. Unlike concrete bases, which require excavation and curing time, ground screws can be installed with precision machinery in a matter of minutes. These advantages have been frequently referenced by both manufacturers and solar engineering platforms, especially in discussions surrounding sustainable construction practices.

In the solar sector, ground screws are seeing notable momentum. Industry publications have highlighted their suitability for ground-mounted photovoltaic systems on uneven or soft soils, where traditional foundations may be less efficient. Many EPC companies in Europe and North America report that using ground screws helps avoid extensive site preparation—an increasingly important consideration as project owners push for predictable schedules and reduced environmental impact.

Beyond solar installations, the technology is expanding into residential outdoor projects, modular buildings, fencing systems, timber structures and temporary facilities. The growing interest in prefabricated construction methods has further strengthened the demand for foundations that are adjustable, reusable and quick to deploy.

Tianjin Sunston Ruize, a manufacturer and exporter of metal foundation solutions, has observed this trend firsthand through its overseas clients. The company notes that customers in many countries are showing increasing interest in ground screw systems, particularly for applications requiring flexible installation and long-term corrosion resistance. To meet these needs, the company has introduced enhanced welding techniques and upgraded galvanization processes designed for durability in varied soil environments.

As global markets continue to emphasize efficiency and sustainability, ground screws are steadily moving from a niche option to a mainstream foundation method—reflecting a broader transformation taking place across the construction and renewable energy industries.
