The direct reduced iron market is expected to grow from its present valuation of approximately US$ 8,249.0 million to US$ 16,789.0 million by 2030. It is projected that the global market for direct reduced iron would expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2% between 2022 and 2030.
Direct reduced iron (DRI) has recently emerged as a quality supplement, in place of scrap steel, among steel making companies. Increasing steel production capacities, heightened awareness about CO₂ emission control among steel producers, and accelerating demand for high-quality steel from end users continue to drive DRI consumption in global market.
While increasing steel production capacities in China, India and some Middle Eastern countries account for the amplifying DRI demand, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to disruptions across end-use industries, thereby impeding demand for steel. Ban on steel scrap imports are significantly steering sales of DRI amid the global coronavirus outbreak. Surplus supply, and low demand and high storage volumes will result in considerably falling steel production in near term, ultimately affecting the demand for DRI.

Key Takeaways from Direct Reduced Iron Market Study
- Gas-based production process to remain as the go-to option among manufacturers, especially in North America, Europe and Middle East, due to lower natural gas prices
- Coal-based production is dominated by India, which accounts for almost 80% of the DRI produced through coal-based process
- Pellets are the most preferred among DRI form type, as they are easy to transport, have better reactivity and are cost effective than lumps
- Over the recent past, DRI imports have been witnessing a steady rise despite facing stern competition from hot briquetted iron (HBI); the latter has low reactivity and is subject to lower transportation costs
- Vertical integration strategies adopted by steel manufacturers to produce DRI at their own facilities would remain an impending trend in the near future
