Global Industrial Wire Rope Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031
Description
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Industrial Wire Rope market size was valued at US$ 7535 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 9797 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 2.0% during review period.
Industrial wire rope is a high-strength rope widely used in machinery manufacturing, mining, construction, port transportation and energy fields. It is made of multiple strands of high-carbon steel wires and has excellent tensile strength, wear resistance and fatigue resistance. According to different industrial needs, industrial wire rope can be galvanized, lubricated or anti-corrosion treated to improve its corrosion resistance and service life. It is mainly used for lifting, traction, lifting, fixing and carrying operations to ensure safety and efficiency in various industrial equipment and working environments.
From the perspective of product type, cross-twist steel wire rope occupies an absolute dominant position, and it is expected that the sales share will reach 76.63% in 2031. Its technical advantages lie in high fatigue resistance and stability, and it is widely used in high-intensity scenarios such as lifting and mining. With the improvement of industrial automation and safety standards, the market demand for high-performance steel wire ropes continues to grow, forcing companies to increase R&D investment. For example, core manufacturers such as Bridon-Bekaert and Kiswire have improved product durability by optimizing twisting processes and coating technologies, consolidating their share in the high-end market.At the regional level, the global consumer market presents a "one super and many strong" pattern: China ranks first with a sales share of 38.06%, mainly benefiting from infrastructure expansion and manufacturing upgrades. In contrast, India has become a growth pole with a CAGR of 5.18% (2025-2031), driven by the accelerated industrialization process and the cost advantages of the local supply chain. As traditional markets (accounting for 42.98% in total), Europe and North America have saturated demand, and growth depends on the renewal of stock equipment and green energy projects (such as offshore wind power).
From the production side, China dominates the global supply with a production share of 69.56%, followed by Europe (10.06%). The scale effect and low-cost raw materials (such as domestic steel overcapacity) of Chinese companies form core competitiveness, but the rising environmental protection costs under the "dual carbon" policy may compress profit margins. In the future, India, Southeast Asia and other places are expected to have a production share of 7.37% in 2031 by relying on labor cost advantages and policy support, diverting some low-end and mid-end orders. In addition, raw material price fluctuations have become a key risk. The main raw material for steel wire rope is high-carbon steel, and its price is significantly affected by iron ore, energy costs and geopolitics (such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine). In 2023, the global steel price volatility will be as high as 15%, forcing manufacturers to lock in costs through long-term agreements or turn to regional procurement strategies.
At the application level, lifting equipment accounts for 45.15% of the market share, and its growth (CAGR 2.86%) is directly related to global port expansion and new energy infrastructure.
From the perspective of the competitive landscape, in 2024, the world's first-tier manufacturers mainly include Kiswire, Bridon-Bekaert and WireCo World Group, and the first-tier manufacturers account for about 18.12% of the market share; the second-tier manufacturers include Usha Martin, Jiangsu Langshan wire rope, Teufelberger and Guizhou Steel rope Group, etc., with a total share of 22.52%. The leading manufacturers in the Chinese market include Jiangsu Langshan Wire Rope, Guizhou Wire Rope, Jiangsu Juli Wire Rope, SAFETY, Xianyang BOMCO and JULI SLING. At present, in the Chinese market, international manufacturers led by Brugg and Bridon-Bekaert have laid out their presence in China early and built factories. With their strong R&D capabilities, they have occupied a part of the mid-to-high-end market. Other international manufacturers such as Teufelberger and WireCo World have not built factories in China, but sell imported products in China by setting up sales branches or agents. However, in the high-end market, Chinese manufacturers are conquering related technologies. China's steel wire rope imports have declined year by year since 2021. Chinese manufacturers are also gradually replacing foreign manufacturers in the mid-to-high-end market. The import volume in 2024 is about 46,000 tons. Unlike the Chinese market, in other countries such as South Korea, Japan, and India, leading companies occupy a large market share. For example, in the Korean market, Kiswire occupies about 50% of the market share; in the Japanese market, Tokyo Rope occupies about 40% of the market share; in the Indian market, Usha Martin occupies about 60% of the market share. It is worth noting that the Japanese market is significantly affected by exchange rate fluctuations, with a revenue CAGR of -3.07% from 2020 to 2024.
The growth logic of the future steel wire rope market has shifted from "scale expansion" to "value enhancement". Technological innovation capabilities, regional supply chain resilience and ESG compliance will become the core variables for corporate differentiation. Under multiple challenges, manufacturers with technological foresight, global layout and risk management capabilities will lead a new round of industry reshuffles, while companies that rely on low-cost expansion may face severe survival pressure.
