The global welding consumables market was valued at $16.1 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $27.5 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2023 to 2032.
Welding consumables are materials used up during the welding process to join two or more pieces of metal together. These materials are essential for creating a strong and reliable weld.
The aerospace and defense industry requires precise and high-quality welding for the fabrication of aircraft, missiles, and military vehicles. The demand for lightweight materials and advanced welding techniques in this sector contributes to the market growth.
Moreover, as urbanization and infrastructure development continue to rise globally, there is a growing demand for welding in the construction of buildings, bridges, roads, and other infrastructure projects. Electrodes are commonly used in various welding processes to join structural components, reinforcing the demand for electrodes. Furthermore, many industries, including automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, and manufacturing, rely heavily on welding processes to fabricate and assemble components. The expansion of these industries leads to increase in need for electrodes for various welding application; thus, fueling the market growth.
However, in some applications, welding consumables are replaced with alternative joining methods such as adhesive bonding, fastening, and 3D printing. These alternatives offer advantages in terms of weight reduction, design flexibility, and reduced heat-affected zones, which can limit the demand for welding consumables. Thus, restraining the market growth.
On the contrary, advances in welding technology, such as the development of new welding processes, robotic welding systems, and consumable materials with improved performance, drive the market growth, as industries seek more efficient and cost-effective solutions. This is expected offer lucrative opportunities for the welding consumables market during the forecast period.
The welding consumables market is segmented on the basis of type, welding technique, and region. On the basis of type, the market is categorized into electrodes, flux, shielding gas, filler metals, and others. On the basis of welding technique, it is divided into arc welding, resistance welding, oxy-fuel welding, laser-beam welding, and others. Region-wise, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
