The global sheet metal market size is expected to grow by USD 69.16 billion during 2018-2022 due to its wide scale application in industries like automobile, aircraft, agriculture machineries and appliances. Increasing demand for sheet metals in the building and construction sector is also expected to fuel metal demand in the market. Rising trend of interior decoration and architecture is further anticipated to boost demand for sheet metals soon.

Considering Asia Pacific regions, countries like China and India are the primary sheet metal market, owing to the rise in the amount of construction and booming automobile industry. Growing automobile industry is demanding heavy amount of metal sheets, which in turn is reflecting in the global sheet metal market growth. Developed countries already have many automobiles, while the developing countries are boosting the automotive sales due to evolving infrastructural facilities, rising living standards and economic growth.

Following are some of the top trends gaining prominence in the sheet metal industry.

1. Automation: Automation is on its way & has transformed various industries with metal fabrication industry being one of them. The act of cutting and bending sheet metal has simplified due to robotic technologies. Additionally, these automated technologies are also helping manufacturers to achieve precision, as well as minimize their material waste.

2. Additive Fabrication: 3-D printing is already an integral part of the manufacturing industry. Many metal fabrication businesses are enjoying the benefits of 3-D technology investments such as time and cost reduction by eliminating few assembly steps, achieving great design freedom, and minimizing waste. Ultimately, these technologies are helping them their production quality.

3. Tube Laser Technology: It is one of the fastest growing sheet metal fabrication technologies. The tube laser technology offers various advantages over traditional sheet metal fabrication and manufacturing processes. The tube laser machines have a capability to produce sharp and intricate cuts, which helps improve the fabrication quality and speed.

The general consensus is that the upswing in the industry will likely continue to be optimistic. The sheet metal market is strong – whether in construction, auto, or aerospace – there is good demand for sheet metal products.
