Global Sintered Steel Market is valued approximately at USD 23.5 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a growth rate of more than 3.9% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Sintered steel refers to a specialized metal manufacturing process that involves compacting metal powders under high pressure and then subjecting them to controlled heat to fuse the particles together, resulting in a solid and durable material. This process eliminates the need for traditional machining or casting methods and enables the production of complex shapes and precise components with excellent strength, dimensional accuracy, and cost-effectiveness. Sintered steel finds application in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, and electrical appliances, where it offers lightweight properties, enhanced structural integrity, and the ability to meet specific performance requirements. The driving factors boosting the market growth are growing automotive industry and growing construction and infrastructure projects.
According to Statista, in 2021, the global market for automotive manufacturing was estimated to be worth USD 2.86 trillion. In 2022, the market is anticipated to increase to over USD 2.95 trillion. Moreover, growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and technological advancement in powder metallurgy may create lucrative opportunities for the market growth. However, the high production costs and limited design flexibility stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Sintered Steel Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 with largest market share due to the rising demand for lightweight materials, high-quality and precision parts in the automotive & aerospace industries. However, Asia Pacific region is expected to be the fastest growing region during the forecast period, owing to factors such as increasing disposable income, rapid industrialization and urbanization, and increasing consumption of sintered steel in various end-use industries.
