Rising Scope of Usage in Increasing Set of Application Areas to Drive Market
The global market for aluminum alloys benefits from a plethora of factors, including the rising scope of use of a variety of aluminum alloys across an increasing number of application areas. The transportation sector, in its lookout for materials capable of reducing the overall weight of vehicles, making them more fuel efficient, while also maintaining their strength and toughness, has emerged as a key use of aluminum alloys over the years. Industries such as automotive and aerospace continue to use aluminum alloys in a number of parts and accessories and the thriving growth of these industries across developed as well as developing economies is positively impacting the growth prospects of the global aluminum alloy market as well.
Fluctuating Supply and Costs of Raw Materials to Rein in Market Growth
Despite observing vast rise in demand across the transportation sector, some factors will rein in the growth of the global aluminum alloy market. Chief ones of these include the fluctuating raw material costs and the concerns related to the mining of bauxite across a number of regional markets with strict environment protection norms. With chief bauxite countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia coming under the radar of environmentalists owing to poorly regulated production operations, the market is expected to continue to bear the brunt of fluctuating supply of raw materials, and thus their fluctuating costs in the international market.
