Ferrochrome Market
Growth Factors of Ferrochrome Market
The ferrochrome market size was valued at USD 16.92 billion in 2023, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 17.81 billion in 2024 to USD 26.55 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the ferrochrome market growth. The lockdown measures had limited the flow of resources and products. The supply chain disruptions have decreased the production of finished goods. The labor and raw material shortages and strict government regulations have reduced demand for the materials. However, various companies have ramped up production to meet the growing demand for the solutions. The market has become stable because of rising acceptance of stainless steel.
The ferrochrome market share globally has been increased due to the high usage of the stainless steel industry to aid market expansion. Ferrochrome is added to stainless steel to advance its appearance and provide corrosion resistance. Chromium stainless steel and chromium manganese grade are generally employed in the construction and transportation industries. In addition, increasing consumption of this kind of steel in the construction industry is impelling the market to grow significantly. This material was not commonly utilized for building structural applications initially due to its expensiveness. Though, technological advancements have enhanced the steel more accessible and affordable while improving corrosion resistance and longevity.
The trend of growing foreign investments and manufacturing business is boosting the market growth. Increasing overseas investments and manufacturing works are escalating demand for stainless steel and generate great market growth opportunities. Foreign spending will boost the expansion of manufacturing industries such as construction, heavy equipment, consumer goods, and automotive. The rapid growth in the automotive sector will fuel the utilization of the product.
