Analysis of the Russian grinding balls market in 2016-2020

Grinding balls are products made of steel or cast iron alloys used for grinding TPI in special drum mills, which makes them an important element of the manufacturing industry.

The consumption of grinding balls in Russia is growing at an average annual rate of 2% and reaches 427 thousand tons in 2020. Most (92%) of consumption is provided by domestic producers, the largest of which is NTMK (Evraz). Imported products are consumed to diversify suppliers and reduce the risk of mill downtime.

SBS Consulting experts predicted an increase in the consumption of grinding balls until 2025, based on the main trends of consumer industries.

Resilience of the manufacturing industry to crises, comparison of indicators of 2008-2009 and 2020

Since the Industrial Revolution and overproduction crises of the XIX century the very concept of "economic crisis" is associated with closed factories. And what is the situation now, when the traditional manufacturing industry is no longer the main economy?

SBS Consulting experts tested to what extent the manufacturing sector performed better or worse during the last two global crises — the financial and economic crisis of 2008-2009 and the "coronacrisis" of 2020 in industrialized countries.

Analysis of the prospects for the development of hydrogen production in Russia

According to SBS Consulting experts, Russia has a significant potential to increase its role in the hydrogen sector as an energy supplier. This is due to the availability of both the necessary raw materials – gas and coal – for the production of "gray" and "blue" hydrogen, and the necessary generating capacities of nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power plants, etc., necessary for the production of more expensive types of hydrogen – "yellow" and "green".

At the same time, emphasis should be placed on the development of electrolysis technology at nuclear power plants, since it is characterized by minimal emissions at a relatively low cost, which will continue to decrease due to a drop in the cost of electrolyzers by 30-40% by 2030.

Research of the export potential of Russian products

We often come across the opinion that Russian products are uncompetitive, that consumers abroad prefer goods from China and Europe, but this is not 100% true.

On average, the volume of Russian exports grew by 26% in 2016-2018 and reached a peak volume of $450 billion. Indeed, until 2018 the increase in exports was due to raw materials and non-primary energy goods, but then the situation changed - the growth was ensured by the export of finished goods. Even in the context of the 2020 pandemic, when total exports fell by 21%, this segment showed positive dynamics.

SBS Consulting experts have developed their own methodology for selecting promising products, according to the results of which products from different industries have significant growth potential.

Analysis of the Russian plant protection products market

Russia is traditionally one of the leading producers of agricultural products. The growth of the world population encourages agricultural producers to introduce various technologies to increase yields. As a result, the NWR market in Russia increased by 14% annually in the period 2015-2018, for 9 months of 2020 it grew by 24% compared to the same period in 2019. According to the forecasts of SBS Consulting experts, the consumption of NWR in Russia will continue to grow and by 2025 will exceed the indicators of 2020 by 40-45%.

The impact of COVID-19 infection on the Russian manufacturing industry

The development of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarters of 2020 has put global trade and, as a result, Russian industry at risk. The suspension of factories in China led to a reduction in the supply of materials and components, there was a risk of similar consequences in other countries.

SBS Consulting experts conducted a research of the impact of possible restrictions on world trade (including in the scenario of a reduction in Russian exports) due to the pandemic in the domestic industry. The study assessed the role of Chinese products, the negative effect of the reduction in world trade and identified the most vulnerable industries.
