Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing in Australia

Intense competition from low-priced imports and non-metal substitute products constrains the Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing industry's long-term performance. Many local manufacturers have responded by focusing on manufacturing bespoke products or specialist low-volume products that are less susceptible to external competition. This shift has stabilised the industry's performance, with favourable trends across a range of markets, including households, industrial machinery manufacturing, mining and police services, offsetting falling demand for fabricated metal products in downstream building markets.

Industry manufacturers mainly produce metal hand tools, general hardware and other fabricated metal products. Products include door handles, bathroom fittings, cutlery, razors, knives, firearms, ammunition, locks and safes.
