Coated Abrasives Market Size was valued at USD 9.8 Billion in 2023. The Coated Abrasives industry is projected to grow from USD 10.28 Billion in 2024 to USD 15.9 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.30% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032). Growth in the manufacturing sector, pre-engineered building and component demand, and advances in the metal fabrication business, are the key market drivers enhancing the market growth.Type: Secondary Research, Primary Research, MRFR Database and Analyst Review
One of the main factors influencing the market is growth in the metal fabrication industry as a result of increased demand for pre-engineered buildings & components and advances in the manufacturing sector. The expanding demand from numerous end-use industries, such as the medical, agricultural, automotive, and aerospace industries, is another factor fueling the rise of the metal fabrication industry. The industry is also subject to ongoing change as a result of evolving technologies and a lack of competent employees. The industry for electric cars (EVs) is anticipated to increase, which will further fuel market expansion. The largest vehicle factory in North America, for instance, is Tesla, Inc.'s Fremont facility in California. Rivian Automotive stated in August 2021 that it would spend USD 5.0 billion building a car facility in Fort Worth, Texas. Both the need for EVs and the number of charging outlets for them are rising in the United States. In consequence, it is projected that this would increase the consumption of abrasives in the years to come. Additionally, the expansion of the manufacturing sector in Asia's developing nations is driving rising demand for super abrasives. For instance, in order to entice investments in the production of mobile phones and electronic component units, the Government of India announced production-linked incentives for large-scale electronic products makers over the following five years in April 2020. Such measures help the nation's industrial sector thrive, which in turn helps the market expand.
The market is expanding significantly because to the rising demand for coated abrasives with PSA support. Because they provide more simplicity in the mounting of sanding discs, rolls, and sheets, pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) are becoming more and more prevalent. However, coated abrasives continue to frequently use paper and cloth as base materials. Many suppliers produce coated abrasives with PSA backing, including Saint-Gobain and CUMI. These products are mostly used for orbital sanding to finish flat stock wood components, blending welds and flaws in auto body shops, and removing paint and primer in vehicle refinish shops.
Use of PSA-backed coated abrasives makes mountings on disc sanders, orbital sanders, and rotary sanders simple and convenient. These coated abrasives guarantee protection from dust and moisture and extend the life of the disc. As a result, any surface, flat or curved, can be consistently ground, sanded, and polished thanks to the equally applied adhesive layer. During the anticipated period, these variables are anticipated to fuel market expansion.
Cutting tool applications are expanding, and this is the main trend propelling market expansion. To increase the effectiveness and performance of cutting tools while maintaining their original form and razor-sharp edges, strong materials are used in their construction. The cutting tool industry was very interested in grinding wheels for the same reason. During the forecast period, the demand is anticipated to be driven by improvements in coated abrasive materials for these applications and the creation of sophisticated equipment that enables the use of coated abrasives in cutting tool applications.Thus, driving the Coated Abrasives market revenue.
The Coated Abrasives market segmentation, based on Type, includes Aluminum Oxide, Silicon Carbide, Zirconia Aluminum Oxide, Ceramic Aluminum Oxide, Garnet, and Emery. Aluminum oxide segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2022. This is explained by the rising demand for coated abrasives across a wide range of application fields.
The Coated Abrasives market segmentation, based on Application, includes Metalworking, Woodworking, Automotive, Electronic & Semiconductors, Aerospace & Defense, and Others. Automotive segment dominated the Coated Abrasives market in 2022.Abrasives are utilised in the automotive sector for a variety of tasks like coarse and lacquer sanding. Super abrasives are also preferred for grinding and polishing in order to enhance the surface quality of automotive components.
