The global Ground Granulated Blast-Furnace Slag (GGBFS) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 9448 million in 2025 to US$ 10620 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.0% from 2025 to 2031.
The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.
Ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS or GGBFS) is obtained by quenching molten iron slag (a by-product of iron and steel-making) from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder. Ground -granulated blast furnace is highly cementitious and high in CSH (calcium silicate hydrates) which is a strength enhancing compound which increases the strength, durability and appearance of the concrete.
Market Drivers
Sustainable Construction Demand: Growing emphasis on eco-friendly building materials is boosting GGBFS adoption.
Infrastructure Development: Increased investments in infrastructure projects worldwide are fueling market growth.
Carbon Reduction Initiatives: GGBFS's ability to reduce CO₂ emissions in cement production aligns with global sustainability goals.
The main manufacturers in this industry include ArcelorMittal, Nippon Steel, Baowu Steel, POSCO, Hesteel Group, JFE Steel, Tata Steel, Nucor Corporation, etc. The market concentration is dispersed, and the top five manufacturers account for about 20%.
