In 2010, the focus for Asian steel has so far been on recovery. For 2011 and beyond, the goal is consolidation and expansion. Just as Asia’s most vibrant economies helped steer the world out of recession last year, now the region’s steel industry is providing the momentum to keep recovery on track.
The power that Asian steel musters is phenomenal. During the first six months of 2010, crude steel output among the region’s dominant producers – China, India, Japan, Korea and Taiwan –soared 23% and accounted for two-thirds of total world steel production during the period.

China naturally continues to dominate global steel. Production reached 568m tonnes last year, and predictions for 2010 are in excess of 640m tonnes. But Japan too seems to be enjoying a reversal in fortunes thanks to roaring exports – primarily to its Asian neighbours. And Indian growth too is tipped to outpace that of any other country over the next five years.
For the region’s producers, steel consumers, traders and raw materials suppliers, the future certainly looks positive. But uncertainties lurk:
- Can Beijing really curb overcapacity?
- What new markets will Chinese steel exporters find?
- How many planned Indian mill expansions will reach fruition?
- Is blast furnace production the best route for emerging Asian steelmakers?
- Africa, Mongolia and Siberia: new raw materials reserves for Asian mills?
