The upward trajectory of the automotive sector is anticipated to serve as a catalyst for driving the growth of the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blades market in the foreseeable future. Within the automotive industry, precision cutting and shaping of metal components are crucial aspects, demanding efficient cutting tools such as bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blades for producing various vehicle parts, including steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous alloys. Highlighting this trend, data released by the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) in May 2023 indicated a notable growth in global motor vehicle production, reaching 85.4 million units, representing a 5.7% increase compared to 2021. Moreover, North America witnessed an increase in vehicle production, totaling 14,901 thousand units in 2022, up from 13,596 units in 2021. Hence, the expanding automotive sector is poised to act as a key driver propelling the growth of the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blades market.
The surge in manufacturing activities is also forecasted to significantly contribute to the growth of the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blade market moving forward. Manufacturing involves the transformation of raw materials or components into finished goods through various processes utilizing tools, machinery, labor, and chemical processing. Bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blades play a vital role in manufacturing activities, offering cost-effectiveness, high performance, extended tool life, superior wear resistance, excellent cutting-edge stability, and find applications across diverse industries. For instance, according to Statistics Canada in February 2023, the manufacturing industry in Canada experienced substantial growth, witnessing a remarkable 17.9% increase in total sales, reaching $850.9 billion in 2022. Consequently, the escalating manufacturing activities serve as a driving force fueling the growth of the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blades market.
The constrained availability of specific raw materials crucial for the production of band saw blades represents a substantial constraint on the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blade market. The limited accessibility to essential raw materials such as steel and iron ore often leads to supply shortages, heightened production expenses, and difficulties in maintaining consistent product quality. These challenges significantly impact blade manufacturers' capabilities to meet market demands and fulfill customer requisites. For instance, as reported by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in December 2022, global crude steel production witnessed a notable decline, reaching 158.1 million metric tons in June 2022, reflecting a significant decrease of 5.9% compared to June 2021. Consequently, the constrained availability of raw materials emerges as a substantial hurdle impeding the growth trajectory of the bi-metal and carbide-tipped band saw blade market.
