According to a research report published by decision advisor & Consulting, the Canadian Coated Steel Market size is anticipated to reach USD 9.59 Billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by increasing demand from the packaging, automotive, consumer appliance, and construction sectors, all of which depend on coated steel for its unique blend of durability, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility.

Market Overview

The phrase coating refers to the process of applying an organic coating, either decorative or protective, on a steel substrate that is supplied in coil form. Pre-painted steel is another term for coated steel. Coated steel is durable and lightweight; it is utilized extensively in the automotive sector. These attributes are critical to the safety and fuel efficiency of vehicle manufacturing. Coated steel offers environmentally friendly alternatives for a variety of industries, including construction and the automotive sector, while also reducing waste and conserving natural resources. To enhance the performance of durable coatings, major industry participants are also funding R&D projects, which are driving market expansion.

For steel derivative products, Canada will impose a 25% levy on their entire value. This legislation, which goes into effect in December 2025, will initially apply to a list of steel derivative items made in Canada. Canada is a net importer of steel, and its principal steel producers, which have historically exported more than half of their production, of which more than 90% is sent to the United States, have suffered a 24% annual decline in exports, which has decreased demand and income.

The tariff rate quotas for steel goods that were put in place in June 2025 are being strengthened by the government. The Strategic Innovation Fund will receive up to $1 billion from the government to promote the steel industry's shift to new business ventures and to bolster local supply chains. By using recycled steel in coil coating applications, the adverse environmental effect of steel production is reduced, and the growth of the sustainable building industry is aided.
