Green Initiatives & its opportunities for the
stainless/special steel industry

Is the crisis truly over for the stainless/special steel markets ?

2009 marked a year of uncertainty as markets bore the brunt of the financial crisis and credit crunch that erupted last quarter of 2008. The stainless steel industry suffered as demand slowed in markets worldwide. Stimulus spending by governments has helped jumpstart demand worldwide and the world economy has since seen a dramatic turnaround. Recovery may still be stunted and it will be important to know how these markets will perform. Get updated insights of market reviews of Asia, MENA region, Russia/CIS, USA & Europe.

Raw material volatility is a major concern for producers as they grapple with rising costs, increased competition and weakened demand. How will molybdenum, chrome, nickel & scrap markets develop next ? Will prices skyrocket once more as asset prices rise again? Trade financing considerations become even more important post financial crisis. What are the options and what are their benefits?

With mounting environmental concerns, green initiatives in the construction industry also grow in importance. Will these initiatives provide new opportunities for stainless steel producers? As consumers become more discerning, producers will also need to know their needs and procurement strategies.
