The
global steel market is expected to reach USD 1.01
trillion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.
Growing inclination of contractors towards sustainable, low cost and durable
building materials is driving steel demand in upcoming residential projects
& industrial infrastructure.
Technological
advancements have made pre-engineered metal buildings with high structural
integrity a reality, where steel plays an essential function in lending
stability, aesthetic appeal and design flexibility. Stringent regulations
promoting green & energy-efficient buildings is also contributing to steel
demand, especially in industrial structures.
The
Asia Pacific market is relatively subdued, but displays high growth owing to
exponential growth in the Indian market as of 2017 on account of protectionist
measures & rising demand. About 1/3rd of Chinese exports are shipped to
countries in Southeast Asia owing to anti-dumping policies by western
countries, which has contributed to economic growth and infrastructure
development in these countries.
Hot
rolled products dominated the steel industry with over 75% of the volume share
in 2016. These products are widely utilized in automobile structures such as
frames, wheel and other parts as well as welding and construction trades among
others.

Further
key findings from the report suggest:
- The global steel demand exceeded 1.71 million
tons in 2016 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.1% from 2017 to 2025
- Steel tubes are anticipated to grow at above 3%
CAGR in terms of volume, owing to high demand for underground pipelines in
fuel & water transportation
- Cold rolled products are expected to grow at
3.1% CAGR in terms of revenue, owing to their excellent inherent as well
as physical properties including high concentricity and tensile strength,
straightness and better aesthetic appeal
- Pre-engineered metal building (PMB) structures
are increasingly replacing other conventional structures since they are
over 30% lighter, providing simpler and lightweight designs
- Steel roofs & walls are expected to grow at
a CAGR of 2.7% in terms of revenue; they generally aid in minimizing
energy loss, heat gain whilst maximizing thermal comfort and fire safety
properties in PMBs
- North America & Europe are expected to
remain dominant yet mature steel-consuming regions, owing to market
saturation and low construction spending as compared to emerging
economies; however, rising housing starts in the U.S. may offer lucrative
opportunities for innovative producers & distributors
- Major industry participants include Emirates
Steel, Hamriyah Steel FZC, Al Nasser Industrial Enterprises LLC, United
Iron & Steel Co., Al Ghurair Iron & Steel Co., Al Rajhi Steel,
Absal Steel, ArcelorMittal, Hadeed (SABIC), and Solb Steel Company among
others
