    Description

    In 2023, the price of fabricated structural steel in the United Kingdom has fallen by over ** percent. That came after the cost of that building material soared between 2020 and 2022. Most of that price increase happened in 2021, with a growth rate of **** percent that year. Structural steel is widely used for construction because it is durable, malleable, and strong, while also being cheaper than many other metals. For example, it is often used as a structural material for skyscrapers and other buildings, as well as for infrastructure. Why has the price of steel increased? Those price increases seen until 2022 have not just affected the UK, but many other countries around the world. For example, the cost of fabricated structural metal in the U.S. and that of structural steel and other steel products in Germany reached their highest growth rate in 2022. Supply chain disruptions along with a decrease in the global production of crude steel in 2020 were some of the main reasons for those price hikes in 2021. In addition to that, the price of iron ore, which is the main component of steel, and energy also had a strong impact on the final price of steel products those years. Largest steel producers In the past couple of years, China was by far the largest steel producer in the world, with a production volume that was well over ***** times higher than that of the second country in the ranking: India. Although the United States was also on that list along with Japan and Russia, it was not among the leading exporters of steel. The reason for that discrepancy is that a big share of the production in countries of the size of the U.S., China, and India goes to fill their own domestic needs. Meanwhile, **** of the ** companies with the highest output of steel came from China, with the rest coming from Luxembourg, Japan, South Korea, India, and the U.S.

    Description

    The basic steel processing industry revenue is set to climb at a compound annual rate of 2.4% over the five years through 2025-26 to just over £1.2 billion, including a 2.7% hike in 2025-26. Industry revenue has been highly volatile in recent years, mostly as a result of volatiles steel prices. Supply chain disruptions and soaring energy costs (resulting from the Russia-Ukraine conflict) caused steel prices to skyrocket in 2022-23 balloning production costs for basic steel processing companies. While this inflated revenue as companies passed on the cost increases, sales volumes remained subdued as the same challenging market conditions ate away at downstream buyers’ demand for cold-formed steel products. Due to the steep steel prices and inflated energy costs during 2022-23 and part of 2023-24, basic steel processing companies have struggled to remain profitable despite raising their prices. As steel prices have significantly eased in 2025-26, profitability is set to see some improvement, reaching 6.4% in 2025-26. However, price volatility will continue to permeate the industry. Particularly due to the US’s new “Liberation Day” tariffs on steel and aluminium products. While the UK has reached a trade agreement with the US on 8 May 2025 to exempt British steel and aluminium products, the tariffs on other countries are set to spark trade diversions, supply chain restructuring and retaliatory tariffs in other markets, impacting global steel prices and industry revenue. Still, strong investment from British car manufacturers is set to support domestic demand for cold-formed steel products in 2025-26 and the coming years, shielding basic steel processing companies from the volatility of export markets. Over the five years through 2030-31, industry revenue is forecast to climb at a compound annual rate of 1.5% to £1.3 billion. Growth in vehicle and aerospace manufacturing output is set to support demand for cold-formed steel products. Oversupply of cheap steel on the global market will remain the most significant threat to UK cold-formed steel products manufacturers. However, UK steel import tariffs are set to continue protecting national steel processors until 9 February 2028 when the anti-dumping measure is set to expire. However, this will also keep input cost high for companies that aren’t vertically integrated or have their steel furnaces in other countries, like Voestalpine, limiting industry profitability.

    Description

    Metal wholesalers play a crucial role in distributing ferrous, non-ferrous and precious metals to downstream manufacturing and construction customers. Wholesalers’ performance is dictated mainly by global metal prices but also by downstream markets’ activity. The volatile nature of global metals markets carries over to metal and metal ore wholesaling, with UK tariffs artificially inflating steel prices and revenue. However, competition from wholesale bypass has limited revenue growth. Revenue is expected to climb at a compound annual rate of 1.7% to £28.1 billion over the five years through 2025-26, despite a 0.4% drop in the current year. Fluctuating metal prices have created significant industry revenue volatility. Prices initially surged over the two years through 2022, due to rebounding activity and demand following COVID-19 restrictions. Higher metal prices allowed wholesalers to charge customers more, fuelling revenue and profit expansion. Prices have been falling in the years since amid wider economic uncertainty and constrained activity in manufacturing and construction markets due to severe inflationary pressures. For example, major wholesalers like ASD and Barrett Steel reported severe drops in revenue and profit in 2023. In contrast, the precious metals market has thrived, with gold reaching record highs due to geopolitical uncertainty, benefiting wholesalers in that segment. Ongoing geopolitical tensions and escalating trade war uncertainty have put further pressure on most metal prices and downstream market activity, weighing on wholesalers’ revenue and profit in 2025-26. The Metal & Metal Ore Wholesaling industry is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 1.5% to £30.3 billion over the five years through 2030-31. Volatile metal prices will continue to create uncertainty for future growth, potentially constraining revenue and profit. Expanding construction activity, partly thanks to strong government support for housing and infrastructure, and improving manufacturing output, mainly in transport and machinery manufacturing, will drive demand for metals like steel, copper and aluminium. UK government measures, including introducing a new steel strategy and carbon border adjustment mechanism, should support domestic sourcing and stabilise supply chains. Meanwhile, demand for critical minerals will climb, driven by the energy transition and green technologies, offering opportunities for wholesalers willing to adapt. Wholesale bypass will remain a significant source of competition for wholesalers. To remain competitive, wholesalers will need to enhance customer service, logistics and value-added offerings.

    Description

    Over the five years through 2024-25, iron and steel manufacturing revenue is expected to dip at a compound annual rate of 3.3% to £7.2 billion. Heaps of cheap steel on the global market have undercut British prices and caused big trade partners like the EU to institute import quotas. Unable to lower prices because of high labour costs and environmental charges, industry giants like British Steel and Tata Steel have stated a need for government intervention to continue operating. Both companies are also moving away from blast furnace operations to invest in greener electric arc furnaces, marking a complete industry shift. Tata Steel closed its Port Talbot site in September 2024, marking the end of traditional steelmaking in Wales and the switch to its electric arc furnace, which is set to begin operations in 2028. British Steel is preparing to close its Lincolnshire blast furnace site before the end of 2024-25. However, ongoing discussions with the government over the size of the support package for British Steel’s transition could delay the closure. The industry has been wracked by volatility. Metal prices dropped during 2020-21 as the COVID-19 pandemic slashed downstream demand for iron and steel. However, as manufacturing and construction activity started recovering in 2021-22, iron and steel prices soared as production failed to keep up, causing a global undersupply of steel. This massively raised revenue in 2021-22, driving up profitability. Steel prices started to dip in 2022-23, bringing down iron and steel manufacturers’ revenue. In 2024-25, revenue is set to dip by 2.9% owing to a slump in sales volumes in the second half of the year, resulting from the 2024 Autumn Budget denting business confidence and slashing construction and manufacturing new orders. This will coincide with iron and steel prices continuing to stave off. Profit is expected to remain flat as iron ore, carbon and energy prices continue to normalise, reducing manufacturers’ costs. However, higher wage costs and subdued demand will keep profit low at 1.1% in 2024-25. Over the five years through 2029-30, revenue is forecast to drop at a compound annual rate of -0.2% to £7 billion. While UK steel manufacturers no longer face tariffs in the US, EU import quotas will stay put, causing significant harm. Despite UK quotas, competition from imports will prevail, especially as China’s manufacturing rebounds. Reduced production from British Steel and Tata Steel as both companies switch to electric arc furnace production will also hinder revenue growth until 2028-29.

    Description

    Metal structure manufacturers have faced a series of hurdles in the past years, as macroeconomic headwinds dampened downstream demand from key markets, mainly construction. Over the five years through 2024-25, metal structure makers' revenue is forecast to fall at a compound annual rate of 2.2% to £8.4 billion. Metal structure manufacturers faced considerable challenges in 2020-21. Supply chain disruptions, economic instability and fluctuating commodity prices, particularly steel, tanked revenue. Costs associated with raw materials, mainly influenced by steel prices, were passed through the supply chain, resulting in lower-end prices and diminished profitability. Despite a rebound in 2021-22, revenue dipped over the two years through 2023-24 amid rising inflation and project delays in the construction sector. Commercial construction has been a key support for the industry, especially as business capital expenditure is rising in 2024-25, boosting structural steel sales, particularly for multi-storey office buildings and large-frame projects. Government initiatives like the Help to Buy scheme and the Housing Infrastructure Fund have also bolstered residential construction, somewhat offsetting the adverse effects of falling prices and surging interest rates limiting residential construction activity. Looking ahead, Brexit-induced trade challenges pose a significant threat to the industry's steel supply. Sales to the commercial and residential construction sector are expected to climb, driven by government policies and investments in infrastructure projects like the High Speed 2 railway and Hinkley Point C power station. Mitigating international competition through measures like tariffs on Chinese steel could provide some relief for domestic manufacturers, enabling them to better compete in a fluctuating global market. The industry’s outlook relies heavily on navigating these trade regulations and maintaining a steady supply chain. Metal structure manufacturers' revenue is forecast to creep upwards at a compound annual rate of 1.6% over the five years through 2029-30 to £9.1 billion.
