Published: Jul 2023 | Report Code: OMR2027051 | Category : Chemical and Material | Delivery Format: /

Long steel market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period. The major factor contributing significantly to the growth of the market includes the rising demand for long steel in end-user verticals such as the building and construction industry owing to the extensive tensile strength and ductility properties. In addition, the rising construction industry due to rapid population growth has increased the number of construction projects along with high long steel demand. Apart from construction applications, rapid utilization of long steel in the field of transportation such as railways has driven the market in the historical period. Expanding rail projects due to the development of lines and routes across the globe have opened doors for many manufacturers to expand their product manufacturing and capacity. For instance, in February 2021, Nucor Corporation built a TrueCore manufacturing facility in Brigham City, Utah, which will manufacture insulated wall and roof panels. Moreover, in June 2022, The World Bank approved a $245 million loan to support India’s efforts to modernize rail freight and logistics infrastructure. The Rail Logistics project will help India shift more traffic from road to rail, making transport—both freight and passenger—more efficient and, reducing millions of tons of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) each year.

Segmental Outlook  

The global long steel market is segmented based on product type, production process, and end-user industry. Based on product type, the market is sub-categorized into rebar, wire rod, merchant bar, and others. Among these, the rebar segment is projected to account for the largest share of the market during the forecast period. The segment growth is attributed to the increasing building & construction activities, rising urbanization, and rapid growth in the renewable energy sector. Based on the production process, the market is subdivided into basic oxygen furnaces and electric arc furnaces. The basic oxygen furnace is projected to dominate the market. Properties such as high production volume, strong alkalinity, rich angularity, and tough surface characteristics make it an ideal process for steel production. Similarly, based on end-user industry, the market is sub-segmented into railways, construction, industrial, and others. 

Regional Outlook 

Geographically, the global long steel 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)). North America is projected to hold a considerable share in the global long steel market owing to the rise in construction operations, which provides enough push for the demand requisite in the region. The presence of prominent market players is also the reason, the market is showing an impressive growth rate. To cope with surging market demands, players are focusing on providing long steel for heavy construction purposes. For instance, in December 2020, ArcelorMittal provided special rebars and thread bars Krybar to Kuwait for its new liquified natural gas terminal. In addition, the market growth in the Middle East & Africa region is primarily driven by the oil & gas and infrastructure sectors.

Global Long Steel Market Growth, By Region 2022-2028

Global Long Steel Market Growth, By Region

Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Witness Fastest Growth 

Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region is likely to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The regional growth is attributed to the development of new metro rail projects, dedicated freight lanes, and the repair and upgrading of highway and railway bridges. Countries, such as India and China, are witnessing an increasing number of residential construction projects, which is likely to create significant demand for steel long products. China is estimated to accumulate humongous revenues in the market owing to the rising steel production in the country due to rising domestic demand along with rising export practices, where the top exporting countries are South Korea followed by Vietnam and Thailand, this factor is estimated to help in widening the growth pattern of the steel market in the entire Asia Pacific region. Additionally, rising disposable income and the presence of leading players in the region are causative of steady market growth. 

Market Players Outlook

The major market players in the global long steel market include Arcelor Mittal, Baowu Steel Group Corporation Limited, Gerdau S.A., HeSteel Group Company Limited, Hyundai Steel Co., Ltd, Nippon Steel Corporation, Nucor Corporation, POSCO Corporation, Ternium S.A., and Votorantim S.A., 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 May 2021, ArcelorMittal Europe expanded its organic coated Granite range by launching Granite HDXtreme, pre-painted steel. The steel is designed for roofs and façades on buildings near the sea. Granite HDXtreme is highly sustainable and it has a lower CO2 footprint compared with alternative solutions such as aluminum.
