Iron Ore Pellets Market

Growing demand for steel across the world will drive the market's growth rate

Steel demand across the major end-use industries is anticipated to fuel the demand for iron ore pellets. The biggest market for steel is construction. According to the World Steel Association, the construction value in 2019 was over USD 500 billion, accounting for more than 50% of the total value of steel demand worldwide. One of the main factors influencing the steel demand is the increased requirement for housing as a result of rising population. The United Nations' World Population Prospects report predicts that by 2030, there will be 8.6 billion people on the planet. This is expected to increase the need for new homes, which would help steel and iron ore pellets grow.

As per Data Bridge Market Research analysis:

Asia-Pacific is the dominant region in iron ore pellets market during the forecast period 2022 to 2029

Currently, Asia-Pacific dominates the market in terms of revenue and market share, and this trend is expected to continue throughout the projected period of 2022–2029. Due to its many advantages, including consistent size and a high rate of metallization in the area, pellets are a superior feed for manufacturing iron than other feeds, which is why the market expansion in this area is attributed to them.

North America is estimated to be the fastest-growing region in iron ore pellets market the forecast period 2022 to 2029

The strong demand for steel in highly energy-intensive industries and the lower cost of iron pellets in North America, on the other hand, are expected to contribute to the region's lucrative expansion throughout the projection period of 2022–2029 Furthermore, the region's demand will increase due to its low environmental effect.

COVID-19 Impact

The market for iron ore pellets suffered as a result of the current coronavirus outbreak. The market was significantly impacted by the worldwide suspension of steel-producing services. Declining steel consumption has a bearing on iron ore prices around the world. Additionally, the market was significantly disrupted by the suspension of major supply chains and other operations. On the plus side, it is predicted that the market would gradually recover from 2021 as a result of the construction and automotive industries' significant recoveries. Furthermore, these imposed lockdowns are being relaxed by the various regulatory agencies. The operations that have been halted and cancelled will continue, and as a result, market growth is anticipated. As a result, the market will continue to grow steadily after COVID.
