The powder metallurgy parts market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $26.94 billion in 2024 to $28.97 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to automotive industry demand, cost-effective manufacturing, metal powder innovations, environmental sustainability, expansion of end-use industries.
The powder metallurgy parts market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $36 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to electric vehicles market growth, customization and complex geometries, increased aerospace applications, demand for lightweight materials, rising healthcare industry usage. Major trends in the forecast period include tungsten alloys usage, quality standards and certification, global supply chain challenges, collaborative research and development, rise in electric vehicle production.
The increasing global demand for electric vehicles is anticipated to drive the growth of the powder metallurgy parts market in the future. Electric vehicles are powered either fully or partially by electricity and utilize an electric motor instead of a traditional combustion engine. Powder metallurgy parts, including soft magnetic components, are utilized in electric motors, helping to eliminate the risk of laminations. Consequently, the growth of electric vehicles will lead to a heightened demand for powder metallurgy parts. For instance, in April 2023, the International Energy Agency, a France-based autonomous intergovernmental organization, reported that over 10 million electric cars were sold globally in 2022, with sales projected to increase by an additional 35% in 2023, reaching 14 million. Therefore, the rising demand for electric vehicles is driving the expansion of the powder metallurgy parts market.
The increasing demand within the aerospace industry is expected to be a driving force behind the growth of the powder metallurgy parts market. The aerospace industry, encompassing the design, development, production, and maintenance of aircraft, spacecraft, and related systems, utilizes powder metallurgy parts to achieve benefits such as lightweight construction, complex geometries, material efficiency, precision, cost-effective mass production, reduced machining requirements, improved performance characteristics, and the exploration of innovative material combinations. As of August 2023, the aerospace industry's revenue, according to Cadrex, a US-based company, reached $741 billion in 2022, marking a 3% increase from the previous year. Therefore, the escalating demand in the aerospace industry contributes significantly to the growth of the powder metallurgy parts market.
Major companies in the powder metallurgy parts market are concentrating on product innovations, such as bonded mix solutions, to enhance compaction efficiency, enabling the production of larger and more complex components with improved density distribution and minimized material waste. A bonded mix solution enhances compaction efficiency by providing high apparent density and excellent filling performance without the inclusion of metal stearates. For instance, in October 2024, Hoganas AB, a Sweden-based producer of powdered metals, introduced Starmix Nova, a new bonded mix solution aimed at improving compaction efficiency by offering high apparent density and superior filling performance without metal stearates. This innovation facilitates the creation of larger, geometrically complex components with better density distribution, while also extending tool life and ensuring cleaner, more sustainable sintering processes.
Major companies in the powder metallurgy parts market are concentrating on strategic partnerships to enhance their capabilities. Strategic partnerships involve companies leveraging each other's strengths and resources to achieve mutual benefits and success. For example, in October 2023, Granges Powder Metallurgy (GPM), a France-based company that specializes in spray-formed aluminum products and aluminum powders for additive manufacturing, joined forces with Delva Oy, a Finland-based firm focused on industrial metal additive manufacturing, to develop high-performance aluminum alloys. This partnership aims to deliver innovative solutions across various sectors, including high-precision industrial automation, aerospace, satellite technology, military and defense, as well as demanding applications like hydraulics, optical structures, laser systems, and pumps.
