Major market players are now directing their focus toward product quality differentiation as well as affordable pricing structure. For maintaining their presence in the market, these players are making R&D investments associated with technologies of chromium production. A new report of Transparency Market Research lists key companies underpinning expansion of the global chromium market, which include Xinapse Systems Ltd., Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation, Samancor Chrome, Odisha Mining Corporation, MVC Holdings LLC, Kermas Group Ltd., and International Ferro Metals.
The report slates a run-of-the-mill growth for the global chromium market during the forecast period, 2017 to 2026. Circa US$ 18,000 Mn worth of chromium are envisaged to be sold worldwide by 2026-end.
Soaring Demand for Stainless Steel to Spur Chromium Adoption
Soaring demand from stainless steel industry to cater requirements of various end use verticals such as building & construction, manufacturing, and automotive, is expected to prevail as a key demand driver for chromium. This mineral accounts for approximately 20% of the stainless steel composition, and enhances the hardness and oxidation resistance of the metal, thereby preventing corrosion. Augmented demand for stainless will therefore have a positive influence on demand for chromium in the upcoming years.

A key trend influencing demand for chromium is rise in the production of non-met chromite, which further seeks huge adoption in chemical-grade chromite and foundry. Non-met chromite is the by-product obtained during metallurgical-grade chromium production. With the upsurge in demand for metal castings, majority of the metal manufacturing companies are focusing on incorporating foundry product manufacturing processes. This will further proliferate adoption of chromium in the near future.
Carcinogenic properties and price volatility of chromium are likely to endure as major challenges constraining its adoption. Chromium has been associated with severe effects on the human respiratory tract trailing prolonged exposure. Gastrointestinal & neurological issues, wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing are other common irritations caused by chromium exposure.
