Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Tool Steel & Die Steel market size was valued at US$ 8907 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 11360 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 3.6% during review period.

In 2024, global tool steel and die steel production reached approximately 2.93 million tons.

Tool Steel refers to a variety of carbon and alloy steels that are particularly well-suited to be made into tools. Tool steels are notable for their hardness, resistance to abrasion and deformation. Today, tool steel is widely used in various specific tool applications like dies, cutting, mold-making and hammers (personal or industrial). Tool Steel can retain a cutting edge at very high temperatures which is why they are often used in the shaping of other materials through cutting, pressing, coining or extruding. Their resistance to abrasion lends to their use in the production of injection molds.

The global market for tool and die steel is driven by industrial advancements, particularly in manufacturing sectors like automotive, aerospace, and electronics. As these industries grow, the demand for high-performance steels continues to rise, as they are essential for producing components with high precision and long service lives. In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for tool and die steels with enhanced properties, such as improved corrosion resistance and better heat treatment capabilities. This trend is fueled by the continuous push for innovation and efficiency in manufacturing processes, where tool steels with superior performance characteristics can significantly reduce downtime and increase productivity. Additionally, the expansion of emerging markets in Asia, particularly China and India, has played a key role in boosting the global consumption of tool and die steels. The competitive landscape is also witnessing technological advancements in steel production, with manufacturers focusing on producing steels that offer a better balance between cost-effectiveness and performance.
