Market Insight
Flat carbon steel is a type of steel
that contains a low amount of carbon.
Typically flat carbon steel contains 0.04% to 0.30% carbon content. This is one
of the largest groups of carbon steel and it covers a great diversity of
shapes. It is both malleable and ductile, has a comparatively low tensile
strength, and the hardness of the metal’s surface can be improved by
carburizing, a heat treatment process. It is easier to cold-form and handle
than other grades.
The rising demand for steel from the
construction and automotive industry acts as a major driver for the growth of
the flat carbon steel market. Flat carbon steel is made into flat-rolled sheets
and strips, used for shipbuilding, wire, vehicle bodies, and domestic
appliances. Flat carbon steel is gaining presence in the automotive industry
owing to the growing use of lightweight materials in automotive design. In
addition, the expanding infrastructure development in the emerging economies contributes
heavily to the growth of flat carbon steel market. The physical properties of
flat carbon steel such as excellent strength and toughness make them useful in a large number of
applications. As flat carbon steel is resistant to corrosion and abrasion, it
is used in enclosures for the car park
and airport buildings, the cladding of
refurbished tunnels, railway bridge structures and in electric light poles.
Furthermore, the rising maintenance and refurbishment activities in the
developed nations propel the growth of flat carbon steel market. Moreover, the growing
investments in infrastructural development and the rapid industrialization create opportunities for the growth of flat
carbon steel market.
Geographically, Asia Pacific dominates the flat carbon steel market. The rapid industrialization and the growth of automotive and construction industry are anticipated to drive the growth of flat carbon steel market in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, rising infrastructural development due to rising population and urbanization in India and China fuels the growth of flat carbon steel market. Europe holds the second largest market share in the flat carbon steel owing to the growth of the automotive industry in this region.
