SILICO MANGANESE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global silico manganese market size was USD 17.01 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 17.62 billion in 2024 to USD 23.45 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific holds leading position in silico manganese market share in 2023.

The ferroalloy silico manganese, also known as ferro silicon manganese, is made by processing manganese ore, manganese slag, coke, and quartz flux at high temperatures. It is composed of manganese, silicon, and iron. Smaller amounts of minor elements including carbon, sulfur, and phosphorus are present in manganese that is mostly silico in composition. In order to make steel, manganese and silicon are essential ingredients. As desulfurizers and deoxidizers, they enhance the steel's mechanical qualities.

COVID-19 Impact

Decrease in Production and Demand due to Unavailability of Labors and Lockdowns Implemented by Governments

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering; with the silico manganese market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Since the virus entered the scene and was identified as a pandemic in 2020, the majority of production and manufacturing facilities around the world have struggled to fulfill demand and produce the necessary quantities. Additionally, both temporary and permanent lockdowns had been implemented by the governments of the majority of the nations. The manufacturing facilities only operated for the timeframe that the government had chosen. Additionally, the workforce that was working for a daily pay and those who were only partially employed were returning to their hometowns, making them unavailable in the manufacturing and urban regions.

LATEST TRENDS

A sinter plant was Introduced to Boost the Production Power of Manganese Alloys 

A sinter plant with an initial investment of 5.4 million US dollars was opened in April 2019 by OM Materials (Sarawak), a subsidiary of the global manufacturer of Silico Manganese, OM Holdings Ltd. This plant can boost the production power of manganese alloys by a controlled level of 250 kilotons in a year.

SILICO MANGANESE MARKET SEGMENTATION

• By Type

Based on type the market is divided into Silicomanganese with 10-26% Si, Silicomanganese with 28-30% Si

• By Application

Based on application the market is distributed into Deoxidizers, Desulfurizers and Others

DRIVING FACTORS

Heavy Demands for Deoxidizer and Desulfurizer to Drive the Market Demand during the Anticipated Period

Existing electric arc furnaces on the market successfully produced pig iron, satisfying market demand while also laying the groundwork for future production. Both silicon and manganese are present in manganese, which combines both of its properties. The majority of nations with high deoxidizer and desulfurizer consumption are making heavy demands for the manufactured combos. By the end of the worldwide projection period, this will aid in the market growing at the specified CAGR percentage.

Increasing Usage in Various End User Industries is Broadening the Requirement for Silico Manganese

The extensive use of silico in the manufacture and manufacturing of steel, which is then utilized as supplements like carbon steel and stainless steel in industries like building, transportation, and construction, is another significant factor driving the market. The need for manganese is growing in industries like the construction of rigid pavements, ballasts, and other rain tracks due to the demand for the metal in the automotive and automotive sectors and the environmentally friendly non-biodegradable slag produced during the extraction of steel using silico manganese alloy.

RESTRAINING FACTORS 

Restraining Availability and Transportation Costs Might Hinder in the Growth of this Industry

Even though silico is renowned for its many applications in end-use industries, it does have a number of drawbacks or restrictions, such as the variable accessibility of silico manganese in different geographical areas, which increases the cost of transportation and logistics and may slightly restrain the silico manganese market growth. It is an expensive experience to transport this drug, in addition to all the other aspects involved in the safe delivery of this commodity. Users may therefore be reluctant to use this product due to the additional expenditures involved.
