The global carbon steel IBC market witnessed a CAGR of 3.9% during the historic period with a market value of USD 2.5 Billion in 2021 from USD 2 Billion in 2015.
Carbon Steel IBC are metal containers having substantial demand from chemical sectors. They are heavy but are considered safe storage containers for liquid form chemicals and concentrations. Carbon steel IBCs have huge demand from the petroleum industry also. The IBCs are suitable for lubricant transportation and have no chemical reactions in between.
Due to the pandemic, new logistics have been introduced to the market, and carbon steel IBCs are the most preferable for the same. The steady growing chemical industry is projected to drive the demand for carbon steel IBCs. Overall, the global carbon steel IBC market is anticipated to bolster at a faster pace during the forecast period.
The carbon steel IBCs are suitable for chemical transportation. The steel intermediate bulk containers are free from chemical reactions and also provide safety during logistics. The mass storage of chemicals and liquid concentrations can be possible through such containers.
The storage facility of the containers increases the demand in the chemical industry, as they are required to store hazardous chemicals for a long period. Carbon steel IBCs can avail those chemicals from explosions also. Such heavy requirements of intermediate bulk containers for the industry, it is driving the carbon steel IBC market incrementally.

The 160 – 350 gallons capacity segment is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. Different end users prefer various capacity containers, but containers with a capacity of 160 – 350 gallons are in most demand.
To store chemicals or lubricants for a longer period these carbon steel IBCs are used. With the aspects of durability and climate-resistance quality, intermediate bulk containers are preferred by most logistic chains.
The global carbon steel IBC market is in steady growth since transportation and supply chain industries are having incremental trends. The demand for storage-friendly and durable containers is making 160 – 350 gallons IBC more preferable.
The petroleum and lubricants market is one of the dominating end users in the carbon steel IBC market. The petroleum and lubricants segment is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period. The disadvantages of drums for lubricant transportation have made carbon steel IBCs popular in the petroleum industry.
These IBCs are compensating for the disadvantages of drums, and becoming a more convenient option in logistics. These metal containers are also climate and age-resistant, thus it becomes more helpful to store lubricants in such IBCs. Carbon metal IBCs are economical and durable also. This makes petroleum a dominating industry in the carbon steel IBC market.
The petroleum and lubricant industry is the largest end use segment of metal containers since the containers are suitable for the transportation of such chemicals. OPEC countries are the leading producer of lubricants, and Venezuela holds the largest share among them.
According to Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Venezuela had a crude oil reserve of 303.97 Billion barrels in 2021. Also, the country accounts for 24.4% of the total crude oil reserves. The largest crude-oil producer is demanding carbon steel IBCs because of their chemical-friendly characteristics.
The carbon steel IBC have become the most preferred option for lubricant transportation. That’s why the country is having substantial demand for carbon steel containers and is driving the carbon steel IBCs market.
Sweden is well-known for its innovative way of producing power from the garbage. The country is also importing garbage from other European countries to get more raw materials for its project. The importing of garbage needs to be in proper containers.
For this purpose, the country is having first preference for metal IBCs in importing garbage from other countries. Sweden is providing direct heating to 950,000 households. With such a huge number of garbage collection, Sweden also needs containers to keep garbage.
For this Swedish government is preferring metal IBCs since it is eco-friendly and protective against chemical reactions. That’s why Sweden is demanding carbon steel IBCs.
