The Aluminum Extrusion market size is projected to be worth USD 115,761.53 Million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.30% during the forecast period (2022-2030). The market was valued at USD 69,510.06 Million in 2021.
Aluminum extrusion is a technique used to transform aluminum alloys into a variety of extraordinary products for consumers and industries. The process is used to create objects of a fixed cross-sectional profile by pushing material through a die of the desired cross-section. Aluminum extrusions have many uses in electronics, automotive, mass transit, bridge decking, telecommunications, solar/renewable energy industries, etc. Three kinds of shapes can be extruded: solid, hollow, and semi-hollow.
The outbreak has significantly impacted the chemicals & materials supply chains, international trade, and manufacturing operations across the world. Aluminum extrusion production declined amidst the COVID-19 pandemic as market players had to shut production facilities or operate the facilities below the optimal production capacities to avoid the spread of the novel coronavirus. Additionally, the lack of availability of raw materials due to supply disruptions due to border and trade restrictions has impacted aluminum extrusion production.
Furthermore, the declining prices of raw materials and low demand from the end-use industries have resulted in surplus stocks and, thus, reduced production. The primary raw material used to manufacture aluminum extrusion is aluminum. The outbreak caused a huge impact on the supply of raw materials. The aluminum trade between China and the US was also negatively affected, drastically influencing the aluminum extrusion market. The chemical industry was badly hit by the global COVID crisis, which affected the price margins of raw materials as well as end products. Thus, the outbreak has resulted in the disruption of the supply-demand of raw materials, which affected the production of chemicals to a huge extent.
The mining industry, which constitutes the highest share of aluminum, has come to a halt across the globe, impacting the Aluminum Extrusion market. The manufacturers cannot run down their products to the application industries due to a reduction in logistics. The manufacturers are providing products to local areas. With the ease of lockdown across many regions, the companies are coming up with more secure and hygienic ways to deliver products. On the other hand, the suppliers are back to business, and distribution channels have re-opened.
New infrastructure development is a driving force behind the increasing demand for aluminum extrusion. Aluminum extrusions are applied in a variety of infrastructures such as industrial, residential, and government buildings. The usage of extruded products, especially in construction activities, has been influenced by growing investments in the housing sector, which is expected to further boost the demand for aluminum extrusion in the near future.
Aluminum is concealed in an ore called Bauxite and is collected from the ground in an open-pit mining operation. Furthermore, the conversion of Bauxite into aluminum via bauxite processing, mining, and refining demands a lot of energy and has several environmental effects. Mining activities, including both underground and open mines, affect animal and plant life.
The automotive segment is noticing an upsurge in aluminum content in internal combustion, followed by the electrical vehicles (EVs), potentially boosting the market growth over the forecast period. Aluminum is extensively used in manufacturing components in electric vehicles, such as battery housings, E-drivers, inverters, brake components, and charging stations. Besides, the automobile components made using metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and advanced high strength steel are preferred for application in electric vehicles owing to their lightweight, which enhances the battery performance for the long run and thus, increases the driving range.
Prices of aluminum extrusions are highly dependent on the procurement price of aluminum ores and are comprised mainly of the cost of alumina, labor, and electricity. The aluminum prices depend on China, and the import-export is based on the demand. Moreover, higher exports of semi-fabricated aluminum products from China are affecting the prices of primary aluminum. Nonetheless, aluminum has had a reasonable percentage of price volatility in the last couple of years.
