Metal Powder Market

Metal Powder Market Size, Share, and Trends Analysis Report, By Type (Ferrous and Non-Ferrous), By Process (Atomization, Solid State Reduction, Electrolysis, and Other), By End-User Industry (Automotive, Aerospace & Defense, Medical, Building & Construction, and Others), Forecast Period 2022-2028

Published: Nov 2022 | Report Code: OMR2027121 | Category : Chemical and Material | Delivery Format: /

Metal powder market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. Metal powders are metal alloys that are processed into very fine powder through high-pressure atomization.  Metal powders are used in many manufacturing techniques to produce metal parts. The use of metal powders eliminates waste in comparison with traditional machining and is versatile in creating a variety of metal and alloy components. The factors such as increasing automotive production and rising medical product demands such as medical implants globally drive the market for metal powder. Apart from these, the high demand for cutting-edge production technologies in the manufacturing sector to reduce time, cost, and labor is likely to boost the metal powder demand during the forecast period. Powder metal manufacturing has many different uses in the automotive industry. The usage in a car can range from structural applications to magnetic applications. With further increases in automotive vehicle production in emerging economies, the market for metal powder is expected to grow more. The integration of metal powder in next-generation alloy development can bring new growth opportunities to the market. 

In addition, the market growth is also driven by the presence of market players and their contribution to the market growth. Prominent metal powder manufacturers are accentuating market expansion through strategic acquisitions, mergers, and capacity expansions. For instance, in December 2020, Sandvik AB acquired Miranda Tools Business. Along with this acquisition, the company acquired manufacturing of solid carbide round tools and high-speed steel business segments of Miranda Tools Business. Further, in September 2022, Uniformity Labs announced the availability of its ultra-low porosity 17-4PH stainless steel powder for the Desktop Metal Shop Pro Binder Jetting platform. 17-4PH is an advanced metal powder that delivers superior material properties, sintered part geometric accuracy, process yield, and print uniformity at the highest throughput as per the company.

Segmental Outlook  

The global metal powder market is segmented based on type, process, and end-user industry. Based on type, the market is sub-segmented into ferrous and non-ferrous. The ferrous segment held the largest share in 2021 and it is expected to maintain its dominance by accounting large volume share. Based on the process, the market is sub-categorized into atomization, solid-state reduction, electrolysis, and others. Based on the end-user industry, the market is segmented into automotive, aerospace & defense, medical, building & construction, and others. Among these, the automotive segment is expected to hold a large share owing to the demand for lightweight automotive vehicle component to reduce the overall cost and to make the engine works better. With the growing demand for lightweight and complex products, sales of aluminum powder are expected to grow at a fast pace over the coming years.

Regional Outlook 

Geographically, the global market is classified into four major regions including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of the World (Latin America and the Middle East and Africa (MEA)). Among these, the Asia-Pacific witnessed the highest demand for metal powder in 2021 Owing to the growing automobile and aerospace industries in the region’s major economies. In addition, the rising penetration of electric vehicles in the automotive industry has provided a positive outlook for metal powder suppliers due to which they are focusing on investing in product development in terms of quality.
