    • TRY: 475,000 ₺

    A major portion of aluminum sheets and plates fall in the non-heat-treatable alloy category. Series 3xxx and 5xxx alloys take the largest market share. There are also series 1xxx alloy sheets and plates, mainly used in electrical applications. Aluminum sheets and plates in Oman are mostly produced using cold rolling. Packaging for chemicals and beverages, false ceilings, dampa ceilings and tiles, as well as composite panels are some of the main applications of aluminum sheets and plates. Domestic demand for aluminum beverage can in Oman is met almost entirely from imports. Construction and chemicals are the main consumers of aluminum sheets in the Arab country.

    • TRY: 475,000 ₺

    Produced in different thicknesses, steel hot-rolled coils (HRC) have a range of applications in industries. HRC can be converted into cold-rolled coils (CRC), galvanized sheets, tinplate, and pre-painted galvanized iron (PPGI) or directly used in various industries. It is also used as raw material to produce pipes and sections. The transportation industry is the largest consumer of HRC. Estimates suggest that the UAE’s HRC market will have relative growth in the coming years.

    Steel wire is produced in different diameters based on its applications. The construction industry is the largest consumer of wire in reinforced concrete (to tie rebar) for the frames and foundations of buildings. Consumable goods such as cages, meshes, and springs with various applications are also instances of steel wire consumption. Steel wire is also used in elevator ropes, power transmission cables, welding electrodes, and mechanical springs in cars. Estimates suggest that Oman’s steel wire market will have relative growth and oversupply over the coming years.

  • Oman’s Aluminum Wire Rod Market Outlook Report

    • TRY: 475,000 ₺

    Aluminum wire rod is generally produced using one of three processes: continuous casting and rolling, direct casting, and extrusion. The production process affects the dimensions, shape, quality, and purity of the wire rod. Most of the wire rod produced through extrusion is packed in bundles, but wire rod that is produced through casting is often packed as coils. Most of the wire rod coil produced in Oman is through continuous casting and rolling. The process involves the continuous casting of billets and then rolling it into wire rod with the desired thickness.

    The production of aluminum wires and cables accounts for the main consumption of wire rod. Mechanical applications such as rivets, screws, fences, and meshes are also large consumers. The development of the electrical grid (distribution and transmission lines) over the past years has led to growing demand for aluminum wires and cables, and wire rod as a result. Given the country’s outlook, the development of the electrical grid is expected to continue over the coming years, albeit at a slower pace compared to the past years.

    • TRY: 475,000 ₺

    Ferroalloys are the most important consumables for steelmakers, used to remove impurities or produce steel alloys. Ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, and ferrosilicomanganese are some of the most commonly used ferroalloys. Ferrosilicomanganese, which contains both manganese and silicon, has a growing market ahead; the share of this ferroalloy in providing the manganese required in steelmaking is rapidly growing, en route to dominate the ferromanganese market among global steelmakers. Moreover, the abundant availability of chromite iron ore in has turned the country into a major net exporter of ferrochrome in the region.

  • Saudi Arabia’s Iron Ore Fine and Concentrate Market Outlook Report

    • TRY: 475,000 ₺

    Iron ore from mines generally has a grade below 50%; using it to produce crude steel, although technically possible, incurs high production costs and the economy is annulled due to the low recovery rate. Thus, most steelmakers use iron ore with grades above 60% to economically justify their operations. Iron ore processed to be used in the steel chain is in either of two forms: fine, and concentrate. Moreover, iron ore can be divided into magnetite and hematite ore depending on ore type. The easier processing of magnetite iron ore to remove deleterious elements has resulted in higher premiums for this type of iron ore on the market.

    Aluminum casting parts are part of the downstream supply chain of the aluminum industry; raw materials for the sector include both primary and secondary sources. One of the unique properties of aluminum in addition to the high specific strength and its high electrical and thermal conductivity, is the relatively low melting point that makes casting possible at low costs. Aluminum casting parts are produced using a variety of processes. Among these, pressure die casting and permanent mold casting are the most common. Sand casting also takes a considerable share of the market owing to low initial cost requirements.

    The possibility of casting aluminum into complex shapes has translated into wide applications of casting parts in various industries. But the automotive industry and home appliances, in that order, are two major consumers of aluminum casting parts. The construction sector (faucets and other components) followed by electric and electronic products (as connectors) are also large consumers of aluminum casting parts.

    Direct-reduced iron (DRI) is produced in a solid process that converts iron ore pellets or fines into pure iron by being reduced using reducing agents. DRI products are divided into three categories based on shape and appearance: sponge iron, briquettes, and fine; fine is usually used as cold-briquetted iron. DRI can also be categorized based on production process: direct-reduced using coal, and direct-reduced using natural gas. A major part of the Middle East as one of the most important sources of natural gas has been dominated by DRI products using natural gas.

    Crude steel comes in different forms such as slabs, billets and blooms, and ingots. Produced using continuous casting, slabs, billets, and blooms take the largest share of Oman’s crude steel market. Slabs are used to produce intermediate flat products (such as hot-rolled coil), while billets and blooms are used to produce long products (such as rebar and sections). Generally, almost all crude steel can be divided into two major categories based on production method: blast furnaces (BF) and electric furnaces (EF). EFs used in steelmaking include induction furnaces and electric arc furnaces (EAF). Only EFs are used to produce steel in Oman, almost all of which are EAFs.

    Power wires and cables include all electrical conductors used in the power industry, automotive, construction, equipment and machinery, or put another way, all industrial applications. As one of the early steps in the supply chain of wires and cables with metal conductors, metal wire rod is drawn into wires in different diameters, which are then coated with different insulations based on applications. Wires are also used in wiring harnesses for motor vehicles. Finally, wires (coated or otherwise) are twisted into cables. Copper is the main conductor used in the production of power wires and cables in Oman.
