Global Steel Wire Rope Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032

Global Steel Wire Rope Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032



Market Outlook

According to the report by Expert Market Research (EMR), the global steel wire rope market attained a value of USD 9.038 billion in 2023. Aided by growth in steel production and growing investments in infrastructure involving motion and lifting applications, the market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 2.3% between 2024 and 2032 to reach a value of USD 10.99 billion by 2032.

Steel wire ropes are complex mechanical devices used primarily for lifting, hauling, and conveying loads. They are integral to various industries due to their durability, high tensile strength, and resilience to environmental conditions. The ropes are primarily used in crane hoisting, oil & gas drilling rigs, mining operations, marine deck machinery, and general engineering applications.

The flourishing construction industry, which relies heavily on steel wire ropes for various applications including lifting and suspending materials, is a one of the key steel wire rope market trends driving the market. The booming urbanisation rates, particularly in emerging economies, and subsequent infrastructural developments are fuelling the demand for steel wire ropes.

In the mining sector, steel wire ropes are indispensable for their strength and ability to withstand harsh working conditions. As the demand for minerals and resources increases, the mining sector’s expansion globally is expected to contribute significantly to the market growth.

Moreover, the rising importance of safety and security in industrial operations has led to strict regulations and standards for wire rope manufacturing. These norms are encouraging the production of high-quality, reliable wire ropes, which is, in turn, bolstering the steel wire rope market demand.

In the maritime industry, steel wire ropes are crucial for anchoring, mooring, and towing operations due to their resistance to corrosion and fatigue. The growth in global trade, which is reliant on maritime transport, is set to increase the demand for steel wire ropes significantly.

The market is also witnessing a growing trend towards the use of non-corrosive materials and coatings, which can significantly enhance the lifespan and reliability of steel wire ropes. These innovations are helping the steel wire rope market to sustain its competitiveness against alternative materials.

Asia Pacific, led by China and India, is currently the dominant market for steel wire ropes, owing to extensive infrastructural development and expanding industries in these regions. The increasing investments in construction projects, coupled with industrial growth in these emerging economies, are set to drive the global steel wire rope market growth in this region.

Environmental and sustainability concerns are also shaping the future of the steel wire rope market. Manufacturers are increasingly under pressure to produce ropes that are not only strong and durable but also more environmentally friendly. This includes a focus on recyclability and the use of eco-friendly lubricants and coatings.
