The global recarburizers market size is expected to reach USD 879.48 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Recarburizers Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Material (Petroleum Coke, Charcoal, and Graphite); By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Increasing steel demand across a diverse range of industries, growing production of steel and iron that significantly requires recarburizers to achieve desired carbon levels, and drastic shift towards environmentally friendly and sustainable manufacturing practices are the leading factors propelling the market growth. In addition, rising investments in R&D activities to innovate new products and, upgrade the existing ones, and focus on several business expansion or development strategies like partnerships and collaborations by major players will likely bode well for market growth over the years.
For instance, in May 2023, EcoGraf Limited announced that they had signed a non-binding Cooperation Agreement with POSCO International. Under this agreement, the companies will focus on the development of by-product fines, including EcoGraf’s GreenRECARB, a type of induction and electric arc furnace recarburizer, among others.
Moreover, the growing emphasis on high-performance and superior-quality steel products around the world has led to a significant number of industries seeking cleaner alternative solutions for carbon control during steel production. As recarburizers offer an eco-friendly and sustainable solution for maintaining carbon levels while reducing impurities and improving mechanical properties, they are gaining huge traction worldwide.
The rapid development of various types of nanostructured carbon materials such as graphene or carbon nanotubes has shown promise in improving the effectiveness of recarburizers and surge in the number of innovations in purification processes worldwide that help to remove impurities and contaminants from the raw materials used in the product production with higher-quality, are likely to generate huge growth potential for the market in the next coming years.
The growing number of companies investing in research & development activities to develop or create efficient and innovative recarburization technologies and increasing incorporation of advanced graphitization techniques, purification processes, and surface modifications into the production processes has been gaining significant traction and population in recent years.
