Global Zinc Ingots Market Trends

Zinc is a brittle but malleable, blue-grey metallic element. It becomes malleable at 100° C.  Zinc ingots are made in foundries from zinc ores. Zinc ingots are made by melting cathode zinc in a furnace, and later the molten zinc is made into blocks and ingots.

Increasing Utilisation in Hot-Dip Galvanization

Rising demand for zinc ingots to produce galvanized steel through the hot-dip galvanization process will drive the market growth. The process is utilised to dip steel objects in molten zinc so that it covers all the exposed parts of the steel object. This helps in protecting the galvanized steel from corrosion and strengthens it.

Depleting Zinc Reserves

The limited production of zinc and increasing demand from end-use industries, especially from Europe due to the ongoing war, has caused the global inventory to decline and a lack of supply. This situation has adversely impacted the market growth.

Rapidly Fluctuating Prices and Adverse Health Effects of the Product to Restrict the Market Growth

Fluctuating Market Price of Zinc

The market price for zinc has been fluctuating due to various reasons such as the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war which has forced smelters and zinc production facilities to shut their operations.

Adverse Effects on Human Health

Zinc forms zinc oxide fumes when it is heated to or near the boiling point. These fumes are the cause of a short-term flu-like disease called metal fume fever. The symptoms of the disease include headache, vomiting, nausea, diarrhoea, fever, and muscle aches, among other symptoms. The symptoms are usually after several hours of exposure.

Zinc Ingot Finds Applications in Electroplate, Zinc Oxide, Alloy, and Battery, Among Others

Based on application, the market segments can be divided into electroplate, zinc oxide, alloy, and battery, among others.

There has been a steady rise in demand for zinc ingots for battery production. The zinc is utilised to perform a chemical reaction with dry battery cells in a metal housing, which results in voltage potential between connections.

Zinc is also extensively used with copper for manufacturing an alloy known as brass. Brass rods are extensively utilised for machining purposes as they are known for their durability and corrosion resistance.

Major Regions for Zinc Ingots Market

The market for zinc ingots has been consistently declining owing to the declining global reserves. North America has been experiencing complications in the market due to increasing competition with Europe for the available amount of zinc. The prices for zinc ingots have surged in the United States due to limited supply. In China, there is a slight rise in the prices because of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
