According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Mold Flux market size was valued at US$ 939 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD million by 2032 with a CAGR of % during review period.
In 2024, global Mold Flux capacity 1,240 k Tons, sales reached approximately 1,120.9 k Tons, with an average market price of around 740 USD/Ton, industrial gross margin 37%.
Mold flux for continuous casting is the functional mix that sits on top of the steel meniscus to provide heat control, lubrication, inclusion absorption and protection from reoxidation; in practice it governs surface quality, casting speed and breakout risk. The key specs buyers look at are softening/melting temperature (roughly 950–1150°C), viscosity at 1300°C (0.3–0.5 Pa·s, lower for high-speed thin-slab, higher for peritectic or stainless), basicity and Al₂O₃ content (to match steel chemistry and avoid reoxidation), crystallization window and rate (to set the heat-flux profile), fluorine content (now shifting to low-F and F-free to meet environmental and equipment-corrosion limits) and consumption per tonne of steel. Technology-wise, three lines are moving fastest: fast-melting/low-viscosity mold flux for HSM/thin-slab casters; low-reactivity, Al-resistant mold flux for high-Al, stainless and IF automotive grades; and fluorine-free or near-free fluxes using B₂O₃/TiO₂/Li₂O systems. The value chain runs from mineral and chemical suppliers (lime, silica, fluorspar, alumina, borax, carbon, lithium) to specialized mold-flux and refractory groups (Vesuvius, Calderys/HWI, Shinagawa, plus a wide Chinese belt of custom flux makers) and finally to steelmakers’ slab/bloom/billet and thin-slab casters.
Recent developments include Vesuvius’ 2024 inauguration of a mould-flux plant in Visakhapatnam, India, and Calderys’ 2025 plan to build a USD 100 million refractory-and-steel-casting-flux hub in Odisha, alongside the consolidation of Calderys India Refractories into the parent, which can be cited as a current, concrete transaction in the segment. The direction of travel is toward faster-casting fluxes, greener/fluorine-free formulations, and more plant-specific, digitally parameterized mold flux recipes.
