List of Key Companies Profiled in the High Strength Steel Market Report:
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2019, global EV sales reached 2.1 million, surpassing 2018 levels and boosting the world EV stock to 7.2 million. EV car sales registered 40% year-on-year increase, accounting for 2.6% of the total global car sales in 2019. High strength steel (HSS) has emerged as a promising technology for EVs as this steel lowers the weight of the car, while providing superior strength and enhanced protection. Moreover, HSS also serves as an excellent battery protector for EVs owing to its high strength and low weight. Furthermore, advanced HSS such as SSAB’s cold formable Docol® improve vehicle performance, making them more fuel-efficient and lower emissions.
The demand for materials with a high strength-to-weight ratio is observed from various end-use industries such as automotive and construction. High strength steel (HSS), being an advanced type of steel, has superior properties than conventional steel such as light in weight and high ductility, malleability & weldability. The addition of additives has further improved the anti-corrosion properties of this grade of steel, which makes it attractive for mining, aerospace, and marine applications. On the other hand, the evolving requirements for automotive construction materials, which can improve the fuel efficiency and vehicle strength, have provided a push to the demand for HSS.
As per the report, the global market value stood at USD 31.03 billion in 2019. The other highlights include:
