2021 Steel Statistical Yearbook published

The World Steel Association (worldsteel)’s Steel Statistical Yearbook 2021 contains comprehensive statistics from 2011 to 2020 on crude steel production by country and process, steel production by product, steel trade by product, apparent steel use and apparent steel use per capita by country, as well as production and trade of pig iron and directly reduced iron.

It also includes data on production and trade of iron ore and scrap. Crude steel is steel in its first solid (or usable) form: ingots, semi-finished products (billets, blooms, slabs), and liquid steel for castings. 

Individuals access the data by logging into the worldsteel data platform with a personal username and password automatically issued at the time of purchase.

The World Steel Association (worldsteel) is one of the largest and most dynamic industry associations in the world, with members in every major steel-producing country. worldsteel represents steel producers, national and regional steel industry associations, and steel research institutes. Members represent around 85% of global steel production.
