Abstract
The global metal replacement market size reached US$ 167.8 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 275.2 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 8.59% during 2022-2028.
Metal replacement refers to the substitution of metals with high-performance polymers, ceramics and composites. Some of the commonly used metal replacement materials include polycarbonates, polyamides, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), thermoplastic polyester, fluoropolymers and polyacetals. In comparison to the traditionally used metals, they are lightweight and offer enhanced material performance, cost-effectiveness, thermal, acoustic, electrical and vibration insulation and corrosion and chemical resistance. They are also convenient to manufacture and can be molded into complex shapes. As a result, they find extensive application across various industries, including aerospace, defense, automotive, healthcare and construction.
Metal Replacement Market Trends:
The increasing adoption of engineering plastics across industries is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of metal replacement in the aerospace and automotive industries is providing a thrust to the market growth. Metal replacing materials exhibit superior mechanical strength and heat resistance and are widely used for the manufacturing of connectors, under-the-hood components, reflectors and lighting sockets. They are also used for the production of lightweight and compact aerospace components that exhibit enhanced structural strength and durability. In line with this, the widespread adoption of polyphenylsulfone for medical and high-temperature applications is also contributing to the growth of the market. Additionally, the increasing utilization of metal replacement in residential and commercial construction projects is acting as another growth-inducing factor. These materials are utilized to substitute steel rods, concrete reinforcements and produce effective sewage systems. Other factors, including the increasing requirement for lightweight components across industries, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
