The global carbon steel market size is expected to reach USD 1,156.5 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 3.4%. Carbon steel is used in a wide range of infrastructure applications, including frame materials, pipelines, fencing, fences, and a number of structural parts. The growing emphasis on infrastructure growth, especially in the Asia Pacific countries, is expected to drive the demand for carbon steel products in the coming years. Countries such as India, China, and Southeast Asia are allocating a larger portion of their budgets for infrastructure development in order to improve the overall economic growth.
The availability of alternatives in shipbuilding, such as aluminum alloys and other lightweight alloys, is expected to hinder demand growth in the coming years. Aluminum alloys are the most common carbon substitutes in shipbuilding and are expected to gain popularity due to properties such as lightweight. The ship’s weight is decreased as a result of its lightweight, which increases fuel efficiency, corrosion resistance, non-magnetic properties, and low maintenance costs. As opposed to carbon steel, one disadvantage of aluminum alloys is their high cost, which can be adjusted by higher earnings.
