The growing demand for iron ore in the steel industry leads to high usage of iron ore pellets in the developing countries, which drives the iron ore pellets market globally. According to World Steel Association report, Data Provisional, crude steel production all over the world reaches to 1869 million tonnes (MT) in 2019, which shows a growth of approx. 3% in comparison to 2018. Therefore, the high utilization of iron ore pellets across the steel industry will lead to rapid growth of the global iron ore pellets market over the forecasted period.
Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the Iron Ore Pellets Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028 and is expected to reach USD 57,516.77 million by 2028. The easy handling and transportation may increase the formation of the iron ore pellets among the manufacturers. Easy handling and transportation lead to the adoption of iron ore pellets in the market.
Key Findings of the Study
Availability at Uniform Sizes Maximizes the Application, Which Is Expected To Bolster the Market's Growth Rate
The availability of the uniform iron ore pellets aids in the end products, as it helps make the products more durable. During processing, the efforts are done by the individuals to reduce the level of impurities along with the strength enhancement that improves the efficiency of the product. The iron ore pellets strength and the less emission nature and majorly the contribution of steel are increasing the consumption at the faster pace. The high-quality uniformly sized iron ore pellets have increased the demand of the iron ore pellets in several products. In those products, they are used to enhance the level of strength and durability. Therefore, the availability of high-quality uniformly sized iron ore pellets maximizes the application, which is expected to boost the market's healthy growth.

North America is estimated to be the fastest growing region in iron ore pellets market the forecast period 2021 -2028
North America is expected to grow during the forecast period due to the more demand for steel in highly energy-intensive industries, and iron pellet reduces the cost within the region.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The global iron ore pellets market was also severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The imposition of various lockdown, social and travel restrictions by government authorities to curb the diseases, led to various challenges for the market. The iron ore pellets manufacturing were shut down worldwide, which further led to suspension of steel-producing services. Most importantly, the suspension of steel-producing services led to huge impact on the market. The travel restrictions led to supply chain disruptions (such as supply chain disruptions such as raw material delays or non-arrival, delayed finance flows) which also hampered the market largely. Furthermore, the iron ore pellets market suffered huge financial loss due to the declining steel utilization.
However, with declining COVID-19 cases across the globe, various restrictions will gradually relax. The steel sector is expected to rise steadily after 2021 as the construction and automobile industries recover, which will further pave the way for the market's growth. Therefore, the global iron ore pellets market is estimated to recover and grow largely post COVID-19.
