Welding Materials Market Overview Welding Materials Market is projected to be worth USD 19.42 Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.30% during the forecast period (2022 - 2030).Welding is one of the most essential fabrication procedures for joining metal or thermoplastic pieces together. The welding method fuses metal pieces at high temperatures without melting the base metal. Welding is not the same as brazing or soldering, which are both low-temperature metal joining techniques. This procedure typically includes the use of filler material at the site of connecting to pool the metal components. The inclusion of welding material in the form of a joint pool or a weld pool gives the structure tremendous strength. The point of connection is usually stronger than the base materials or metals. Welding uses a variety of energy sources, including gas flames, electric arcs, laser beams, friction, and ultrasound. The cost of welding is determined by the process and material used, ranging from the low-cost arc and oxy-fuel welding to high-priced laser and electron beam welding. Electrodes, fillers, fluxes, wires, and gases are some of the most common welding materials. The strength and durability of welding materials are advantages for the structure. Welding materials are useful in practically all major industries, including transportation, automotive, building & construction, marine, power, and oil & gas, since they have exceptional strength, design flexibility, and lifespan.
Global Welding Materials Market Share, by End-Use Industry, 2017 (%)
 
Regional Analysis
The global welding materials market has been segmented into five key regions—North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the largest market in terms of market size. This region accounted for over 40% of the global market in 2017. The primary factor driving the growth of this regional market is the increasing demand for welding materials in major end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and marine. The governments of developing countries in this region, such as India, China, and South Korea, are focusing on infrastructure development and integrating their regional transportation systems. This is likely to boost the demand for welding materials in Asia-Pacific.
The North American market was the second-largest, in terms of market size, in 2017, with the U.S. as the largest contributor to the growth of the market. This growth can be attributed to increasing reconstruction activities and the rising demand for welding materials in the marine industry. Europe is another significant region in the global welding materials market. The major markets in this region are the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The aerospace and automotive industries in Europe are the major consumers of welding materials, which is favoring the growth of the regional market. Latin America and the Middle East & Arica held a small share of the pie in 2017, yet, in the years to follow, these markets are likely to witness considerable growth due to rapid industrialization in the regions.
