Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2027050 | Category : Automotive parts and materials | Delivery Format: /

Heat-treated steel plates market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% during the forecast period. The rising demand for heat-treated steel plates from end-user industries such as construction, energy, metalworking, industrial machinery & equipment, and others is the major factor that is accelerating the industry growth. Apart from these, the rising demand for heat-treated steel plates from the shipbuilding industry globally is another prominent aspect of the market growth. Heat-treated steel plates are widely used in shipbuilding for applications, including offshore equipment, repair pieces, and structural parts. Asian countries are likely to create new growth opportunities due to rapid growth in the shipbuilding sector. Steel demand is expected to continue to grow steadily, particularly in Asia, and notably including India. According to Clarksons, China's shipbuilding totaled 22.8 million compensated gross tons accounting for 50% of the global total, in 2021. 

Apart from these, significant collaboration and new product innovation by market players is another major factor that has boosted the heat-treated steel plates market growth. For instance, in July 2022, Tata Steel Nederland launched Zeremis Carbon Lite, steel with an allocated carbon footprint reduction of up to 100%. With Zeremis Carbon Lite the company meets a growing demand for low-CO2 steel, for instance in consumer-facing industries such as automotive, packaging, and white goods. In addition, in June 2018, to expand its product portfolio and global presence Nippon Steel Corp. acquired Ovako AB, a Sweden-based manufacturer of heat-treated steel plates and special steel. 

Segmental Outlook  

The global heat-treated steel plates market is segmented based on type, process, and application. Based on type, the market is sub-segmented into carbon, alloy, and stainless. Based on the process, the market is subdivided into quenching & tempering, normalizing, case hardening, and annealing. Among these, case hardening is projected to be the leading segment during the forecast period. The advantages offered by case hardenings such as high strength and hardness wear resistance complex structure formation, low cost and others make it an ideal process for heat-treated steel plate formation, thereby driving the segment growth. Based on application, the market is sub-categorized into construction, energy, metalworking, industrial machinery & equipment, automotive & transportation, and others. Automotive and transportation emerged as the largest segment in 2021. Rapid growth in the automotive sector and surging demand for commercial vehicles have boosted the demand for heat-treated steel plates to enhance the hardness and static and dynamic strength of components over quench and hardened steel. 

Regional Outlook 

Geographically, the global market is classified into four major regions including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of the World (Latin America and the Middle East and Africa (MEA)). Among these, the Asia-Pacific region is prognosticated to expand at the fastest rate owing to the availability of labor at cheaper rates and rise in the product demand in major economies of the region due to high consumption by end-user industries. Apart from these factors, the rapid growth in the urban population and the rise in the standards of living have further augmented product demand. 

Global Heat-Treated Steel Plates Market Growth, By Region 2022-2028

Global Heat-Treated Steel Plates Market Growth, By Region

North America Region to Have Considerable market size 

Geographically, the North American region held a considerable market share in the market in 2021. The regional share is attributed to the increasing demand for heat-treated steel plates in the construction of buildings bridges and offshore structures. In addition, the growing aerospace manufacturing is also leading to high product demand. The surge in the number of construction projects across the region has boosted capacity expansion by leading market players. The rise in disposable incomes of the urban population is leading to the construction of new houses in urban regions, thereby giving rise to an increased demand for heat-treated steel plates. The rapid growth in infrastructure development activities and rapid urbanization are expected to bring new growth opportunities to the market during the forecast period. 

Market Players Outlook

The major market players in the global heat-treated steel plates market include ArcelorMittal S.A., Essar Steel, JFE Holdings, Inc., Nippon Steel Corporation, Novolipetsk Steel, Outokumpu Oyj, POSCO, Tata Steel Ltd., Thyssenkrupp AG, and among others. The market players are also contributing significantly to the growth of the market by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, partnerships, collaborations, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in June 2022, Outokumpu expanded its product offering with its new emission-minimized product line, Circle Green. Through this product launch, the company will fulfill the global customer demand for low carbon footprint stainless steel, from construction to heavy industry and consumer products.
