Titanium is a metal element which is found in nature only as an oxide. It is often used to produce a strong metal which is known for its silver colouring, low density, high strength, and resistance to seawater, aqua regia and chlorine. Moreover, the alloys made from titanium are some of the most durable in the world. It is made by mixing titanium with several other elements to increase its toughness, tensile strength, and ability to withhold extreme temperatures, and environments. Owing to these functional properties, titanium alloys remain a highly sought-after material in various industries, thereby driving the global titanium alloy market.
Aerospace and manufacturing are the leading generators of the demand for titanium alloys. These developments are fuelling the expansion of the global titanium alloy market. Fairfield Market Research notes that the global titanium alloy market is poised to reach the market valuation of US$8.4 Bn by 2029, up the 2021 valuation of US$4.3 Bn. This growth will occur at a healthy CAGR of 6.5% during 2022-2029.
The aerospace industry is one of the biggest employers of titanium alloys globally. The material is used for manufacturing aircraft engines as well as the framework. Its lightweight and high-strength combination is considered ideal for the industry's requirements. It aids manufacturers with increasing aircraft range, weight saving, overcoming space limitations, and improving composite compatibility. Besides aerospace, these alloys are also used in automotive and shipbuilding applications, orthopaedic implants, power generation, military applications, sporting goods and equipment. The chemical industry is also using titanium alloys for building highly corrosion-resistant equipment. The cumulative force of these factors is stimulating the expansion of the global titanium alloy market.
Increasing domestic and international travel is incenting the growth of the aerospace industry in Asia Pacific. Moreover, significant investments are also being directed to manufacturing and military equipment innovations. In addition, the chemical industry is also generating demand for titanium alloys. Such developments are enabling the Asia Pacific to hold a leading position in the titanium alloy market. Economies such as China, and India are majorly contributing to these outcomes. Besides, the growing participation of major market players and favourable government norms are intensifying these trends.
Some of the major players in the global titanium alloy market include Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI), Precision Castparts Corp. (PCC), Western Metal Materials Co. Ltd. (WMM), Western Superconducting Technologies Co, Ltd.
