Key Market Dynamics:
- Market Driver - The key factor driving growth in the stainless steel market is the upsurge in the consumption of high-strength stainless steel. The increased use of high-strength stainless steel has been due to its superior qualities like affordable cost and high strength-to-weight ratio. Some of the other benefits that high-strength stainless steel offers are faster hardening rates, high weldability, increased malleability, and a high ability to endure stress. The increased demand for high-strength stainless steel is due to the increasing focus of the automotive industry to minimize the weight of the automobiles while meeting important criteria including stiffness, forming requirements, and crash performance. The increased focus of the stainless steel and automotive industries to develop environment-friendly vehicles is driving the use of high-strength stainless steel, thereby driving the growth of the global stainless steel market.
- Market Challenges - The volatility in raw material prices will be a major challenge for the stainless steel market during the forecast period. The manufacturing of stainless steel depends on various commodities, metals, and industrial raw materials such as iron ore, ferrochrome, scraped steel, chromium, nickel, and others. The prices of commodity products and metals are directly related to the global economic performance and price elasticity. Price volatility brings uncertainty to the market and influences the profit margins of the value chain stakeholders. Fluctuations in the raw material prices will also squeeze manufacturers' profit margins, posing a hurdle to their growth. Therefore, high volatility in the cost of raw materials is one of the major challenges for the global stainless steel market.
