Market Definition
The Aluminium Casting Market size was valued at USD 59.16 billion in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 86.90 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.0% from 2024-2030.
Aluminium casting refers to the process of pouring molten aluminium into a mould cavity to create a specific shape or part. The casting method is widely used to produce various components and products ranging from small intricate parts to large structural components.
It offers properties such as corrosion resistance, high thermal conductivity, and dimension stability. These properties make casted aluminium products suitable for a wide range of applications where lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant materials are required. They are widely used in numerous industries including electronics industry, aerospace industry, and energy sector to provide lightweight and durable components and products.
Market Dynamics and Trends
The increasing use of aluminium within the aviation industry for the construction of airframes, wings, and structural components is propelling the growth of the market. These components which are made up of aluminium provides high strength-to-weight ratio to the airplanes, ensuring structural integrity while keeping weight to a minimum.
According to a report published by International Civil Aviation Organization, the demand for air transport is expected to rise by an average of 4.3% annually over the next 20 years. This rise in air transport demand significantly rises the airplane manufacturing sector and thereby surges the aluminium casting market.
Moreover, the surging adoption of aluminium within consumer electronics devices such as laptops, smartphones, tablets, and others boost the growth of the market. The casted aluminium components are widely use to design the casing and enclosures of the devices, reducing the weight and comfortability of the devices.
Additionally, the enhanced thermal conductivity property of aluminium makes it an ideal material for heat sinks and cooling systems in electronic devices. Thus, the increasing production of consumer electronics propel the growth of the market.
Furthermore, the growing utilization of casted aluminium within the automotive sector, particularly for crafting various car components such as pistons, suspension systems, and chassis, is further driving the growth of the market. Aluminium components offer mechanical strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, making them well-suited for crucial automotive parts. Therefore, the rising adoption of aluminium in the automotive industry is boosting the aluminium casting market.
However, high energy costs act as a restraining factor to the growth of the market. The casting processes requires substantial energy input, to achieve the casting temperature. Fluctuating energy prices directly affect operational expenses thus impacting overall production costs and profitability in the market.
On the other hand, the adoption of advance casting techniques such as low pressure die casting, vacuum die casting, and thinwall die casting is expected to create future opportunities for the market. These techniques are poised to enable the production of high-quality metal products, thereby enhancing the efficiency and reducing the production costs of the final product.
