Long Steel Market

Long Steel Market: An overview

Long steel is extensively used for construction purposes to provide structural support to the body of the building. In the field of construction, long steels are preferred over flat steel owing to the extensive tensile strength and ductility of the product. Growth in construction projects across the globe has increased the demand for long steels over the period of 2015-2019.

Demand from regions such as East Asia and North America has tremendously increased over the past half-decade leading to the expansion in demand for construction materials. High tensile strength, ductility, and a bundle of other construction favoring properties have led to the rise in demand for long steels. 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 project horizons in South Asia & Oceania have opened doors for many manufacturers to expand in the region. Construction application is set to provide thrust to the long steel market in long run. The global long steel market is forecast to witness absolute growth at a higher digit CAGR between 2020 and 2030. Rising demand from construction, railways, and industrial applications has positively impacted the long steel market.

COVID-19 to Contract the Long Steel Market

COVID-19 or Novel coronavirus has not only shattered the movement of the people but also the production and trade of the major products in the market. In the perspective of the long steel market, construction activities stepped on brakes pushing the construction industry and long steel market into turmoil.

For the market to resurrect to its original form, construction activities should restart at the force which is possible post 4th quarter of FY2020. Not only long steel demand, but supply has also been put on hold to normalize the market prices which is set to normalize the overall production cost, post-market resurrection. All in all supply chain of long steel has been disrupted and is set to remain till the end of the 4th quarter of FY 2020.

Segmentation analysis of long steel Market:

The global long steel market is bifurcated into three major segments: production process, product type, end-use industry, and region.

Long Steel Market: Regional Outlook

From a regional perspective, East Asia holds for largest market share in the global long steel market. Construction activities and the rising level of infrastructural operation uptake in the historical period have driven the regional demand. This has provided an immense opportunity for the long steel market to grow in the East Asia region. The shift of trade curves to the right portrays an image of rapidly growing market.

Followed by East Asia, North America accounts for less than 25% of the global long steel demand. The market is growing at a steady pace in this region owing to the rise in constructional operations, which provides enough push for the demand requisite in the region.

South Asia & Oceania and Latin America are growing at a moderate pace as the region owing to the decline in construction activities in the period of 2018-2020. The Middle East and Africa is growing at a fast pace owing to the fastest growing construction and industrial activities in the region
