Report Attributes and Key Statistics:

Philippines Steel Market Overview:

The Philippines steel market is expanding, driven by increasing infrastructure projects and strong government support for local steel manufacturing. The industry is increasingly focusing on sustainable steel production practices, embracing energy-efficient technologies such as electric arc furnaces to recycle abundant scrap metal. This approach supports the country’s ambition to reduce dependence on imported raw materials, lowering costs and carbon emissions.

Recent major capacity expansions, such as SteelAsia’s electric arc furnace projects in Luzon and Davao, underline commitments to cleaner and more efficient production. The inauguration of SteelAsia’s Compostela Works in Cebu—the largest and most modern steel mill in the Philippines—further enhances local supply capabilities, especially for Visayas and Mindanao infrastructure projects, marking a milestone in the country’s steel manufacturing modernization.

Philippines Steel Market News:

[if !supportLists]· [endif]In April 2025, experts called for a ban on induction furnace (IF) steel production—a method used by smaller local mills—for producing inconsistent, substandard steel. This raised concerns about structural safety, especially under seismic risks.

[if !supportLists]· [endif]In January 2025, SteelAsia announced it will begin operations in 2025 at its new heavy structural steel plant in Candelaria, Quezon. This facility—based on electric arc furnace technology—aims to substitute annually over 1 million metric tons of imported steel and save approximately USD 1.2B per year. Operations are expected to commence by 2027, creating around 7,000 jobs.
