[Ferro-Alloys.com] Recent years have witnessed the shrinkage of the market share of calcium silicon cored wire cored wires. Many producers seldom receive the tenders of Calcium silicon cored wires.

Currently domestic steel mills have consumed few of Calcium silicon cored wires and Calcium silicon products. “Currently domestic demand and capacity utilization for Calcium silicon cored wires and Calcium calcium silicon silicon products have been weak, we have no the tenders. Now the overseas demand of Calcium silicon products has been stable.” A source from Anyang Zhenhuan Metallurgy Refractories Co.,Ltd told us. Now the company’s production capacity is around 7,000 tons.

Furthermore, Calcium silicon cored wires are not irreplaceable so that its market share has been narrowed. It is reported that now the domestic market share of Ca cored wires has enlarged gradually. Not only because of the advantage of Ca cored wires, but also because of the whole industry and consumer’s pursuit for the products’ quality.
