STEEL PRODUCTS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global steel products market size was USD 204.93 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 260.18 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 3.03% during the forecast period.

A type of iron with carbon or other elements is called steel. It is a key component used in structures, infrastructure, tools, ships, automobiles, machinery, appliances, and weaponry due to its great tensile strength and inexpensive cost.

Steel is a strong material with a wide range of industrial uses. Steel is a hefty metal with a substantial mass. Metals come in both light and heavy varieties. Steel is produced and manufactured in vast quantities. The majority of modern building are heavily reliant on steel. Utilizing steel speeds up and improves the effectiveness of building. Market options include structural steel and steel that has been toughened. Steel can be processed, melted, and molded. Additionally, it is one of the affordable metals that can be found in many places.

COVID-19 Impact: Supply of Raw Material to Disturb Economies of Scale

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with steel products experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributed to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The virus COVID-19 causes harm to a number of different sectors. With the COVID-19 epidemic, recovery happens extremely quickly. The industries are going through a difficult time right now, both economically and health-wise. Numerous markets are seeing a downward trend as a result of the economic crisis. In recent years, the demand for steel products has been declining. The demand has decreased during the past two years. Additionally, the market's output rates are fast falling. The steel products market growth is being hampered by a paucity of raw materials and processing delays.

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Demand for Stainless Steel to Propel Market Expansion

The demand for stainless steel is projected to increase as a result of corporate and public investments in infrastructure and residential housing. In industrial settings like building and construction, infrastructure, railroads, automotive and transportation, and process industries, stainless steel (SS) is a crucial commodity. Because it combines qualities like pliability, strength, corrosion resistance, aesthetic qualities, minimal maintenance costs, and an average product life cycle, stainless steel (SS) has a distinct advantage over carbon steel. These characteristics, together with rising application penetration, are predicted to fuel market expansion.

DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Residential Infrastructure to Bolster Market Development

The demand for steel products is anticipated to be driven during the forecast period by rapidly expanding urban populations. Many rural residents are moving to urban regions in quest of a better quality of life. The need for infrastructure and housing is anticipated to rise as a result. In Asia, particularly in nations like China, India, Vietnam, and the Philippines, there will likely be a considerable rise in the demand for infrastructure. By 2050, 68% of the world's population is projected to reside in urban areas, up from 55% today, according to the United Nations' World Urbanization Prospects Report. The World Bank estimates that South Asia's urban population increased by 130 million people and will reach 250 million people by 2030.

Technological Advancements to Attract Market Share

The demand for flat steel is rising as automakers look to make their vehicles lighter and more fuel-efficient. This is helping the market expand. Additionally, a number of technological developments, including the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) and the development of rolling and casting methods that help to enhance steel production techniques to create designs that are resistant to pressure, temperature, and corrosion, are boosting the market's expansion. Additionally, the product's widespread use in the construction sector is being positively impacted by its qualities, including ductility and durability, which make buildings earthquake-resistant.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High and Fluctuating Raw Material Pricing to Hold Back Market Growth

The industry that produces steel products is being constrained by rising power prices. There are campaigns underway to employ nuclear, solar, and other non-conventional energy sources more frequently.

STEEL PRODUCTS MARKET REGIONAL INSIGHTS

Increasing Demand for Structural Product to Foster Growth in North America

North America is expected to have the largest steel products market share. The need for structural metal products has increased recently. More than 40 thousand tonnes of structural steel are now in demand. Over the previous five years, there has been a considerable increase in multi-story residential building, which includes hotels and dorms, and it now makes up around 10% of the total demand. In addition to being utilized in buildings, structural steel is also employed in non-building constructions including open-air stadiums, chemical and processing factories, power plants, oil refineries, and other structures without roofs.

Market dominance is predicted to come from the Asia-Pacific. China is the largest economy in the area in terms of GDP. Today, China is one of the largest production hubs in the world and one of the fastest-growing rising economies. One of the key contributions to the nation's economy is the manufacturing sector. China is the world's biggest producer of autos. The nation's automobile industry has been preparing for product development, focusing on making goods to assure fuel economy and reduce emissions.
