Description

Middle East Ferrous Scrap Recycling Market Summary

The Middle East ferrous scrap recycling market size was valued at USD 4.5 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 6.8 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2025 to 2033. Market growth is driven by regional steel manufacturers’ increasing focus on reducing carbon emissions.

The use of recycled steel is rising as it requires less processing for reuse, while the adoption of electric arc furnaces (EAFs) is increasing, cutting carbon emissions by around 70%. These sustainability initiatives are expected to continue supporting the market’s growth in the Middle East.

The Middle East's ferrous scrap recycling market is experiencing significant growth, driven by economic benefits and a strong emphasis on reducing carbon emissions. Steel is among the most recycled materials in the region, contributing to job creation and environmental sustainability.

Recent global trade and policy developments are positively impacting the ferrous scrap recycling market. For instance, the U.S. has implemented a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports, eliminating previous exemptions. This move mandates that qualifying steel must be "melted and poured" and aluminum "smelted and cast" within the U.S., aiming to curb the influx of carbon-intensive materials and bolster domestic production.

In the Middle East, steelmakers are increasingly investing in Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) technology to reduce carbon emissions. EAFs, which utilize recycled steel, are gaining popularity due to their lower environmental impact compared to traditional blast furnaces. For example, a green steel producer in the UAE is planning to establish a facility with a production capacity of 6 million tons per year of crude steel. This project is currently at the stage of approval, reflecting the region's commitment to sustainable steel production.

Additionally, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is actively participating in international dialogues on green steel. The MENA Green Steel Summit 2024, held in Dubai, brought together professionals from the iron and steel industry to discuss trends and developments in green steel, highlighting the region's role in the global transition towards sustainable steel production.
