Thailand Hot-dip Galvanized Steel Products Market Size to Witness Sustained Growth throughout the Forecast Period (2020-2030)
Thailand
Hot-dip Galvanized Steel Products Market: Introduction
The hot-dip galvanized steel products market in Thailand was valued at
over US$ 2.4 Bn
in 2019 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of ~6% from 2020 to
2030. The construction industry in Thailand has been expanding since the last
few years. This has been fueling the demand for hot-dip galvanized metal that
can resist corrosive environments. In turn, this has been propelling the
hot-dip galvanized steel market in Thailand.
Major
Drivers of Thailand Hot-dip Galvanized Steel Products Market
Currently,
Thailand is the 13th largest exporter of
automotive parts and the sixth largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles in
the world. It is the largest in ASEAN. According to a study conducted by the
International Energy Agency, the number of EVs across the globe is projected to
rise to account for 35%
of all vehicles by 2040. On the other hand, popularity of EVs is still low in
Thailand. However, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) were launched in around
2010. According to statistics from the Land Transport Department of Thailand,
the number of registered HEVs and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs)
stood at 84,236 units
in 2017 while only 63 units were battery electric vehicles (BEVs). This is
projected to increase the usage of hot-dip galvanized steel in Thailand the
near future. Hot-dip galvanization is extensively used to protect the
underlying metal from rust. The increase in the production of new electric
vehicles in the near future is estimated to boost the demand for hot-dip
galvanized steel in the long-term for its usage in the production of automotive
exteriors or body parts.

Major
Restraints of Thailand Hot-dip Galvanized Steel Products Market
In
terms of quality, hot-dip galvanization provides 10 times more
corrosion resistance as compared to that offered by electro-galvanization.
However, hot-dip galvanization usually is five times more expensive than
electro-galvanization. Hence, a moderate threat from substitute technology
exists in the hot-dip galvanized steel products market in Thailand. This offers
significant opportunities for hot-dip galvanization
processors.
Key
Opportunities in Thailand Hot-dip Galvanized Steel Products Market
According
to a survey conducted by the American Chamber of Commerce, in May 2019, 40% of U.S.-based
companies were planning to relocate or had already relocated their
manufacturing facilities outside China. Several importers were planning to
procure auto components and other manufactured goods from other countries in Asia,
such as Thailand, Vietnam, and India, due to recent economic and political
developments. This provides an opportunity for domestic hot-dip galvanizers to
establish a strong presence by increasing their capacity. The U.S.-China trade
war has diminished China’s cost advantage, owing to increased tariffs imposed
by the U.S. and several other countries such as India and Japan. Minimum wages
in China almost doubled from 2009 to 2014, making them just 4% cheaper than the
manufacturing labor cost in the U.S.

Thailand
can act as an alternative manufacturing option to China. For instance, Sony
Corporation moved its production to Thailand and closed its smartphone plant in
Beijing, China, in order to cut costs and boost smartphone business
revenue. According to the National Economic & Social Development Council,
Thailand, 10 firms, including Sony, Sharp Corporation, Harley-Davidson Inc.,
and Delta Electronics Inc. are in the process of relocating their operations to
the Eastern Economic Corridor development zone on the east coast of Thailand
from China. The Government of Thailand is planning to upgrade its three main
manufacturing cities — Chonburi, Rayong, and Chachoengsao — under its US$ 45 Bn
plan of Eastern Economic Corridor in order to further boost its manufacturing
industries. Expansion and establishment of the manufacturing industry are
estimated to boost the demand for hot-dip galvanized steel in construction activities.

In
August 2020, the Government of Thailand imposed a 35.67% anti-dumping
duty on China-origin hot-dipped galvanized coils and sheets. This is expected
to negatively impact steel export from China, thus boosting the domestic
manufacture of hot-dip galvanized products. This strategic initiative taken by
the Government of Thailand is likely to boost the production of manufactured
goods such as hot-dip galvanized steel and further propel steel exports.
Existing players in the hot-dip galvanization market are well-established and
can benefit from the ongoing trade war.
