Metal Forging Market
Growth Factors of Metal Forging Market
The metal forging market size was valued at USD 81.13 billion in 2023, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 87.06 billion in 2024 to USD 157.94 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period of 2024-2032.
The COVID-19 occurrence had a negative impact on every feature of the global economy, and this industry is no exclusion. The global pandemic and lockdown limitations enforced by numerous governments caused major disturbance in the complete forged metal components production supply chain. The market met a similar supply chain disaster due to the pandemic.
The speedy growth in the automotive industry is expected to surge the consumption of forged metals. Forged metals offer high strength, corrosion, and heat resistance properties. Such properties make it a perfect choice for various automotive parts, which include piston forgings and connecting rods. Furthermore, the increasing demand for nickel-containing austenitic grades of forged steel in automotive parts further propels the metal forging market growth. Forged steel helps to create automotive parts that are harder and more durable than casting & extrusion. Steel forging offers unmatched resilience and high-quality automotive components for market applications.
The technological development to make viable forged metal is surging the metal forging market growth during the estimate timeline. The worldwide megatrends, comprising urbanization, growing mobility, inhabitants & economic growth, and growing climate change, are prominent features boosting the market. Furthermore, growing CO2 emissions universally led numerous forged metal-producing companies to update and improve a viable choice that could be long-lasting and may be recycled at the end of their lifecycle.
