High Performance Alloys Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Rising Construction Industry: Increased demand for robust, and durable materials for the construction industry significantly boosts the high performance alloys market. These are crucial for constructing structures that can endure heavy loads and harsh environments, such as bridges, skyscrapers, and other infrastructure projects. High performance alloys ensure safety, longevity, and structural integrity in modern construction. For instance, in March 2021, ArcelorMittal announced the launch of its first three XCarb initiatives designed for construction applications, with a lower carbon footprint.
  • Increase in Automobile Production: Automakers seek advanced materials to enhance vehicle performance and safety. High performance alloys provide strength and lightweight properties needed for critical automotive components, improving fuel efficiency and overall vehicle durability. As vehicle standards evolve and safety regulations become stricter, the demand for these alloys in automotive manufacturing continues to grow. For instance, in July 2023, General Motors and Mercedes Benz signed an agreement with ArcelorMittal North America for the supply of its green steel for the production of their vehicles.

Challenges

  • Raw Materials Price Fluctuation: This poses a challenge as materials including nickel, chromium, and manganese are highly volatile to factors such as geopolitical instability, supply chain disruptions, and changes in demand. These fluctuations can lead to increased production costs and affect the pricing strategies of the manufacturers. Consequently, it is a challenge for companies to continuously adapt their sourcing strategies, manage inventory efficiently, and explore alternative materials.
  • Supply Chain Disruptions: Interruptions as such can arise from various factors including geopolitical tensions, natural disasters, trade restrictions, and logistics issues. These disruptions lead to delayed deliveries of raw materials, increased costs, and production stoppages. This makes manufacturers invest in diversifying their supply sources and develop a resilient supply chain strategy to minimize the impact of such disruptions to a certain extent.
