The global heat-treated steel plates market size is expected to reach USD 10.18 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Heat Treated Steel Plates Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Process (Hardening & Tempering, Case Hardening, Annealing), By Application, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023- 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Growth in infrastructure development is anticipated to drive the demand for construction machinery & equipment. As a result, there will be a significant rise in the need for heat treated steel plates, which play a vital role in the manufacturing of robust and durable machinery and equipment used in the construction and transportation sectors. This surge in demand for such plates is expected to be a direct consequence of infrastructure plans and its commitment to economic growth and modernization.
Rapid pace of urbanization in China is expected to lead to increased investments in various infrastructure projects, including highways, railways, & energy facilities. Currently, China's network of highways and railways lags that of developed countries, providing ample opportunities for the country to bolster its economy through extensive infrastructure development initiatives. For instance, in 2019, China approved around 26 infrastructure projects, including rail projects in Kunming, Chongqing, Zhengzhou, & Xian, with a total investment of around USD 142 Bn.
Increasing aerospace and defense budgets in different countries are expected to drive the demand for heat treated steel plates, as these plates are extensively used in various defense applications, including helicopters, tanks, aircraft, & ships. Notably, the defense budget of the U.S. is the largest globally and exerts a significant influence on the manufacturing sector. This rise in defense spending is likely to have a positive impact on the demand for heat treated steel plates, as they play a critical role in the production of robust and high-performance military equipment and vehicles.
Steel is a sustainable material widely used in automotive components and assemblies. Heat treatment plays a crucial role in the manufacturing of automotive and transportation components. Without proper heat treatment, these components may be unable to withstand stress, leading to crack development or failure. As a result, processes like normalizing, annealing, stress relieving, hardening, and tempering are expected to experience sustained demand due to continuous automotive production and the increasing need for new aircraft. This, in turn, will drive the growth of the market.
