United States Metal Casting Market

Market Overview:

The United States metal casting market is expected to exhibit moderate growth during 2021-2026. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.

Metal casting refers to the process of pouring hot liquid metal into a mold containing a hollow cutout or cavity of the desired shape. It is usually made from non-ferrous metals, like zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, pewter, and ten-based alloys. Metal casting is utilized in pipes and oil fittings, mining and oilfield machinery, internal combustion engines, and railroads. In the United States, metal castings have gained traction as they can produce complex-shaped objects at a relatively lower price as compared to other manufacturing processes.

The United States is a dominant market in the North American region for metal casting. The resurgence of manufacturing activities and the continuous demand from the construction sector are propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, metal casting is extensively used in manufacturing aircraft, home appliances and surgical equipment as it aids in improving energy efficiency, lowering the cost of production and enhancing the quality. Moreover, with the rising environmental concerns, various countries have adopted stringent legislations to regulate the emissions from the manufacturing sector. For instance, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) has imposed several restrictions to reduce emission levels in power plants. As a result, automotive equipment manufacturers are increasingly investing in research and development (R&D) activities to introduce new products and adopt simulation-based advanced casting technologies to create perfect defect-free castings.
