The global graphite electrode rod market size was USD 8.8254 billion in 2021. The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with graphite electrode rod market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. As per our research, the market is expected to reach USD 11.9542 billion in 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.19 % during the forecast period. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. 

A crystalline form of the carbon element called graphite has atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern. Unlike the common conductors found in the market, graphite is an ideal conductor. Graphite might be shaped in a variety of ways depending on its intended use. As an illustration, amorphous graphite might be shaped into powder for use in the production of lubricants and structural components. Graphite is furthermore widely utilised in the production of graphite electrode rods. A unique substance, graphite electrode rod is used in the steel and quartz industries, among other specialised fields. Therefore, during the medium-term projection period, product exclusivity will steady demand for the market for graphite electrodes. Manufacturers will have an advantage because to the stabilization of demand and less downward volatility that will boost supply and allow them to take advantage of the opportunity.

As the state of the world economy improves, so does demand for electrodes. The market for Graphite Electrode Rod is expected to expand over the foreseen period due to the qualities of graphite electrodes, which include high electrical and heat conductivity, low impurity concentration, good electrical properties, high mechanical strength, and chemical stability. The use of graphite electrodes in gouge operations, such as the production of a slope or groove, the removal of casting flaws, or welding by arc or gas process, also contributes to the graphite electrode rod market size expansion.

COVID-19 Impact: The Supply Chain Interruptions And Factory Closures Brought On By The Pandemic Had An Impact On The Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled nations to enact lockdowns and stringent social segregation policies all around the world. Covid-19 had a delicate influence on the market for graphite electrode rods. Due to Covid-19, many more end-use businesses are shut down during the lockdown, which causes the graphite electrode rod to decline with time. Nearly all industries, including those in the automotive, aerospace, building, and petroleum sectors, have suffered significant losses. As a result, virtually every industry has been disrupted, and the market for graphite electrode rods has also been significantly impacted. Consumers, businesses, and governments all across the world have experienced financial hardship as a result of COVID-19. Manufacturers of graphite electrode rod are now facing increased costs as a result of the collapse of the equilibrium between supply and demand. By the end of 2027, the market for graphite electrode rods will also benefit from ongoing market recovery.
