About This Dataset

Countries by Crude Steel Production 2025

Countries ranked by total crude steel production in 2025, measured in million tonnes according to World Steel Association data. China produces more steel than the entire rest of the world combined — accounting for approximately 54% of global crude steel output in 2025 through a network of state-owned and private steel enterprises that spans every major province. This production dominance has generated persistent accusations of dumping on global markets, triggering anti-dumping tariffs from the European Union, the United States, and numerous other trade partners, while simultaneously enabling China to build infrastructure at a pace and cost that no other nation in history has matched, from high-speed rail and airports to bridges, ports, and entire new cities.

Analysis

China heads the table on 980, ahead of India (148) and Japan (82) in Crude Steel Production (Million Tonnes) in 2025. China alone accounts for more than the other 7 entities combined: 980 against 513 Crude Steel Production (Million Tonnes). Places 3 to 8 are close together, spanning 82 to 33.
