On the basis of process, the aluminum casting market is segmented into die casting, permanent mold casting, and sand casting. The die casting process is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The dominant market position of the die casting segment can be attributed to the excellent efficiency and the economical nature of the process that offers a broader range of shapes and components than other casting techniques. Die casting is extensively used in the automobile sector for parts such as engine blocks, wheel spacers, and valve covers.
In terms of value, the transportation segment, by end-use, is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the growing demand for lighter automobiles globally, which has led to the replacement of steel and iron parts in automobiles with aluminum products. The rising demand for aluminum cast products in the transportation sector is attributed to the growing popularity of lightweight vehicles with better fuel efficiency.
In 2016, the Asia-Pacific market accounted for the largest share of the global aluminum casting market, followed by Europe and North America. However, as the aluminum casting market in developed countries is maturing, markets in developing countries such as China, India, and Turkey are projected to grow at a higher rate from 2017 to 2022. Asia-Pacific is projected to grow faster than any other region-level market, owing to the rapid expansion of applications such as automobiles, heavy machinery, building & construction, and mass transportation. China and India, among others, are investing in the infrastructure and manufacturing industries, which is expected to drive the transportation sector in the region, and in turn, drive the aluminum casting market as well.
