In recent years, powder metallurgy is gaining popularity among manufacturing companies. Metal powders are used in various applications such as additive manufacturing, injection molding, etc. Metal powders are now being preferred because they offer cost-efficiency, energy savings, and a greater surface finish. So, there is an overall increasing trend in the current market as well as the future market of metal powder. In this blog, let’s have a look at the trends for atomized iron powder.
Atomized iron powder and the market trend
Atomized iron powder is a relatively pure form of iron in spherical shape made by atomizing iron powder. During its production molten iron is treated under a high water mist to get iron powder devoid of impurities. Currently, we have many manufacturers of atomized iron powder in the world, Industrial Metal Powder (I) Pvt Ltd is one of the largest producers and suppliers of atomized iron powder in the world. Along with IMP, other market players are also contributing to the production of atomized iron powder. Since 2012 it has increased from 698.77 KMT to 847.69KMT in 2017 with an average growth rate of 3.94%. The market value of global Atomizing Iron Powder reached USD 1006.3 million in 2019 and it’s estimated to go as high as USD 1072.2 million by the end of 2026 which shows a CAGR of 0.9%.
This growing trend of atomizing iron powder is due to its various industrial applications such as defense, aerospace, construction, automotive, healthcare, and others. In addition, the growing automotive industry, demand for luxury vehicles, electrification and modernization of vehicles; rising urbanization, and technological advancement have all triggered the market growth of atomized iron powder.
