According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the zinc market looks promising with opportunities in the construction and infrastructure, transportation, consumer goods, and industrial machinery sectors. The global zinc market is expected to reach $49.6 billion in 2027 and it is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% from 2021 to 2027. The major drivers for this market are increasing demand for galvanized steel and infrastructure development in emerging markets like India, Brazil, and Indonesia. Furthermore, growing demand from niche applications like smartphones, electric vehicles, mild hybrid engines, and power grid storage will drive the global zinc market.

Zinc is use for producing galvanizing steel, zinc base alloy (die casting), brass and bronze, compound, and semis (sheets, rods, and plates) for various end use industries. Lucintel forecasts that galvanizing will remain the largest segment and it is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to growing demand of galvanized steel in construction, automobile, and other industrial sectors.

Within the zinc market, construction and infrastructure will remain the largest end use industry over the forecast period due to increasing urbanization, industrialization, building, and construction activities in China, India, Brazil, Indonesia, and other developing nations. Lucintel predicts that the transportation segment will witness the highest growth over the forecast period supported by rising demand for galvanized steel in light weight vehicles.

Asia Pacific will remain the largest region and it is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period supported by increasing urbanization, industrialization, and building and construction activities in this region, especially in China and India.

Emerging trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include increasing use of hot-dip galvanizing in automotive for advance high strength steels (AHSS) with exceptional surface quality, increase in use of zinc-air batteries in electric vehicles, and use of zinc in depression and psychosis. Glencore International, Nyrstar, Hindustan Zinc, Korea Zinc, Boliden Group, China Minmetal, Nexa Resources, Shanxi Non-Ferrous, Teck, Penoles, and Noranda are among the major suppliers of zinc.
