Global ceramic foams industry overview
The increasing use of ceramic foams in metal castings is one of the key factors expected to trigger the market’s growth in the forthcoming years. Metal casting is a manufacturing process wherein molten or liquid metal is poured into a mold made of ceramic, metal, or sand containing a cavity which holds molten metal and forms complex shapes. All the major metal such as iron, zinc, aluminum, steel, magnesium, and copper-based alloys, can be made into castings. These metal castings find application in many markets like cars, mining, trucks, planes, pipes, oil wells, toys, space shuttles, wind turbines, and nuclear plants. Rapid urbanization in developing economies like India and Indonesia will lead to a rise in infrastructure development and housing construction, which will increase the demand for metal casting. Consequently, the ceramic foams market will register a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period.
The increasing demand for ceramic foams from emerging economies is one of the key trends expected to gain traction in the market. Factors including the availability of cost-effective workforce, low transportation costs, relaxed government norms in the emerging economies have led to the shifting of many manufacturing facilities across the globe. The rapid increase in industrialization and economic developments in China, India, and Japan will further boost the ceramic foams market in the coming years. Also, ceramic foams offer high-performance acoustic insulation, catalytic support, and pollution control. Furthermore, the growth in the building and construction, chemical industries, and the electronics industry in emerging economies will further boost the ceramic foams market during the forecast period.
