Metals & Metal Products Industry: Company Facts, Figures & Analytical Insights

GIA Announces the Release of a Collection of Company Reports Covering 39 Players in the Metals & Metal Products Industry

GIA has published a series of company reports covering the Metals & Metal Products Industry. These reports are research derivatives of GIA’s full length multi-client research projects. All key players in this space such as BHP Billiton Ltd., Rio Tinto Ltd., ArcelorMittal, Peabody Energy Corporation, Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co., Uranium Energy Corporation, Xinjiang Xinxin Mining Industry Company, Amcor Ltd., and Berry Plastics Group Inc., are amongst the 39 companies analyzed.

The world metal industry is going through a bearish period. Outlook for the industry remains constrained by the challenging global environment, especially the slower growth in China and manufacturing stagnation in Europe. The end of the commodity super cycle and softness in base metal prices as a result of weaker demand in the international market are exerting immense pressure on the profitability of metal and mining companies. With China producing and consuming over 45% of global base metals, the slowdown of the Chinese economy is creating growth killing overcapacity issues in the industry. Together with rising raw material costs, stricter environmental regulation, production cuts, falling capacity utilization rates, trade frictions, and growing pressure to innovate to ensure sustainability, metal companies are being forced to negotiate uncertainty and change in business climate and competition. The rise of new competitors from China, India and South Korea with cutting edge technological prowess, competencies and production capacities is additionally intensifying competition in an already tough marketplace. Given the growing number of companies competing for growth in the metal industry, continuous monitoring of competition is seen as imperative to maintain value in volatile economic conditions. The need to develop competitive differentiation is even more acute given the commoditization of the metal industry and transparency of prices which together tend to blur differences among competitors.    

The new collection of company intelligencer styled reports offer perspectives on companies, their business lines, products/services, and relevant market shares. The profiles provide facts, figures and analytical insights on all company activities, annual sales and revenue turnover. Each of the reports is informatively annotated with statistical analysis that provides on-the-fly business insights into the global metal and metal products industry. A general characterisation of the industry is provided for a topical understanding of the macro market environment in which companies operate. The reports capture vital industry data such as metal market by category, metal consumption in the aerospace industry, metal consumption by type (i.e. Aluminium, Bauxite, Copper, Gold, Iron Ore, Lead, Manganese, Molybdenum, Nickle, Platinum, Silver, Uranium, Zinc etc.), and market size breakdown of select metal markets by end-use sectors (i.e. construction, Consumer Durables, Machinery, Transportation etc.). Also provided are statistics on metal reserves and deposits. All analysis is provided for global and select regional markets. The reports also provide coverage on company news & stories, mergers, acquisitions and other noteworthy strategic corporate developments.

The global market for Material Handling Equipment is projected to reach US$190.3 billion by 2025, driven by the strong emphasis shed on production and operational efficiency and worker safety.
