According to the most recent analysis, the revenue of the carbon steel industry in North America is expected to rise from USD 78.1 billion in 2023 to USD 125.6 billion by 2033. The demand for carbon steel in North America is expected to increase at a CAGR of 4.9% during the assessment period.
The low carbon content steel segment is set to account for a dominant value share of 60.7% in 2023 and exhibit a CAGR of 4.9% throughout the assessment period. This is attributable to the rising usage of low carbon steel in diverse businesses due to its low cost, machinability, and corrosion resistance.
Several factors are expected to drive growth in North America during the forecast period. These include the rapid expansion of sectors such as automotive, construction, and railways, the rising need for strong and durable metals, and multiple advantages of carbon steel products.
The growth of the energy sector in North America, particularly in the adoption of cleaner energy sources such as wind and solar power, is significantly driving the demand for carbon steel. This is because carbon steel is often used for making critical components, including wind turbines, solar panels, and energy storage facilities.
Carbon steel is widely used in these applications for its exceptional durability and strength. These properties of carbon steel are crucial for withstanding the elements and supporting the large structures required in the energy sector.
North America holds a significant position in the global automotive business, producing millions of vehicles annually. Carbon steel plays a pivotal role in this sector, particularly in the manufacturing of essential auto components such as frames and body panels.
The choice of carbon steel is underpinned by its exceptional strength, cost-effectiveness, and recyclability, making it an ideal material for ensuring the structural integrity and safety of vehicles. Hence, the rapid growth of the automotive sector across North America will likely play a key role in bolstering sales of carbon steel and related products.
“North America’s carbon steel business is primed for robust growth on the back of factors such as heightened environmental regulations and expanding industrial sector. With businesses across North America increasingly looking for innovative solutions to minimize their impact on the environment, carbon steel companies are well positioned to take advantage of new growth opportunities,” says an Analyst at Future Market Insights, Inc.
