A new Transparency Market Research report states that the global inorganic metal finishing market stood at US$54.75 bn in 2013 and is predicted to reach US$83.32 bn by 2020, by expanding at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2014 to 2020. The title of the report is “Inorganic Metal Finishing Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 – 2020”.
Metal finishing is a surface process in which another metal, polymer, or alloy is applied on to a metallic substrate. Metal finishing comprises a number of methods utilized by the metal manufacturing industries; the finishing is executed on a ready metal part. Metal finishing comprises a number of operations such as surface preparation and surface pretreatment followed by the actual coating process. The coating process is of three major types, namely, inorganic, organic, or hybrid. Inorganic metal finishing technology is utilized in numerous industries and the components using inorganic metal finishing are employed in a wide range of applications globally. These applications include electrical and electronics, industrial, and others.
As per the report, the demand for inorganic metal finishing is majorly fuelled by developments in the steel and automotive industries globally. The finishing technology lends high corrosion resistance and also enhances the substrates’ durability. Hence, inorganic metal finishing is widely employed in automotive applications, thus stimulating the growth of the market. In addition, the increasing industrial activities within the aerospace sector and heavy industries is also a prime factor augmenting the growth of the market. On the other hand, the strict environmental regulations implemented globally may impede the growth of the market in the coming years.
