Steel, Aluminum to Lead Global Sheet Metal Fabrication Services Market
By metal type, the global sheet metal fabrication services market is segmented into steel, aluminum, and others such as copper and tungsten. Steel is the predominant leader in the global sheet metal fabrication services market due to its widespread use in the construction industry. Aluminum could also exhibit rapid progress in the coming years due to its growing demand in the automotive industry and the booming aerospace sector. Aluminum is likely to account for close to 40% of the global sheet metal fabrication services market by the end of the forecast period. Moreover, the demand for copper, tungsten, and other sheet metal fabrications is likely to be aided by the rapid urbanization across the world, as these two metals have several applications in urban infrastructure.
The steel market is segmented into grade 301 stainless, grade 304 stainless, grade 316 stainless, grade 410 stainless, and others. The grade 301 stainless and grade 304 stainless segments dominated the market in 2016.
Based on form, the sheet metal fabrication services market is segmented into bend/angular sheet, punch sheet, cut sheet and other forms. Bend/angular form contributed maximum market share towards the total sheet metal fabrication services market in 2016 and is expected to grow at healthy CAGR during the forecast period of 2017-2025. Nevertheless, the punch sheet and cut sheet forms collectively accounted for 52% of the global sheet metal fabrication services market in 2016 and are also likely to remain dominant contributors to the market in the coming years.
