In 2022, Japan's imports of pig iron amounted to a volume of around 160 thousand metric tons, increasing from roughly 132 thousand tons in 2021. Pig iron is an intermediary product in the steelmaking process. The next step is producing crude steel by smelting the pig iron in a furnace and adding ingredients such as alloys, steel scrap, and others.
