Chrome Metal Powder Market - Forecast(2024 - 2030)
Chrome Metal Powder Market Overview
Chrome Metal Powder Market size is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% during 2021-2026. Metal chromium powder is majorly used for the production of welding electrodes, and flux-cored wires, owing to this, the chrome metal powder industry is witnessing an increase in demand. In addition, they are also used for the production of various specialty alloys and super alloys. Furthermore, chrome metal powders are highly corrosion resistant against many different acids and bases as well as hot gases.
However, growing manufacturing works in various industries such as automotive, aviation, and others will further enhance the overall market demand for chrome metal powder during the forecast period. The rapid spread of coronavirus has had a major impact on global markets as, major economies of the world are completely lockdown due to this pandemic. The automotive industry in the US continues to remain fragile. Vehicle sales in the month of August declined close to 20% (YoY), reaching 1.33 million units. During the month, Toyota saw a sharp decline of 24.6%, followed by Honda (-23%). Hyundai.

Chrome Metal Powder Market Segment Analysis - By Type
Chromium metal powder had a significant growth in the chrome metal powder market in 2020 and is expected tor grow at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period. Chromium metal quickly became an indispensable ingredient in various industrial materials because of its unique characteristics. Few examples of these applications encompass stainless steel, super alloys, aluminum alloys, and electronics. Whereas high grade stainless steels, made possible by additions of chromium metal powders and are essential to the safe and environmentally sound operation of chemical plants, nuclear power generation facilities, food processing operations, and other critical industries. Hence, with increasing demand for chromium metal powder the demand for chrome metal powder market will grow.
Chrome Metal Powder Market Segment Analysis – By Application
Automotive sector has been the primary market for chrome metal powder in 2020 and is growing at a CAGR of 5.5% in the forecast period. The most commonly used welding methods for automotive applications are resistance spot welding, resistance seam welding, metal inert gas welding, tungsten inert gas welding as also laser beam welding, friction welding, and plasma arc welding. These welding works is expected to drive the demand for welding electrodes and thus, the chrome metal powder market will also grow. Whereas with the growing demand for automotive around the world the welding electrodes demand will drive. According to sales statistics of OICA, there is a increase of 1.6 million unit vehicles sales from 2015 to 2019, this is expected to drive the demand for chrome metal powder in the near future.
Chrome Metal Powder Market Segment Analysis - By Geography
APAC has dominated the chrome metal powder market in 2020 and is growing at a CAGR of 7.5% in the forecast period, as majority of vehicles are produced in the Asian countries such as China, India, South Korea, and Japan. Owing to the larger population in the APAC region, the demand for vehicles in this region is very high for both personal and commercial use, this has eventually led to the increased demand for longer distance roadways network in this region.
According to the OICA (International Organization of Motor Vehicles Manufacturers), there is an increase in 3% production of automotive from 2015 to 2019. Whereas according to the production statistics of 2019 released by OICA, China and India are 1st and 5th largest producer of motor vehicles including passenger cars, commercial vehicles, heavy trucks, buses and others. Hence, the increasing automotive demand in this region will drive the market for chrome metal powder in the upcoming years.
Chrome Metal Powder Market Drivers
Growing Demand for Battery Electric Vehicles
The shift towards electric vehicles in the developed and developing nations would increase the growth of vehicles and will also help the chrome metal powder market over the forecast timeframe. According to IEA, Norway, the Netherlands and Japan are frontrunners in the electronic vehicles segment. Norway held the share of 46 percent in terms of the global new electric car sales as reported by IEA in 2018. In order to meet zero emission targets under the “Paris Climate Accord”, in 2017, France government has announced that it will ban diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles completely and switch to electric powered vehicles by 2040. Whereas according to the electric vehicle world sales database, Europe is the beacon of EV sales in 2020 with 57 % growth for H1, in a vehicle market which declined by 37 %. The rapid increases of EV sales started in September 2019 and gained further momentum this year. Therefore, the rising demand for electric vehicles has enhance the overall market demand for chrome metal power.
Spraying Chrome Versatility
Spray-on chrome process is very versatile and is not limited by the size of the part to be chromed. It can be used on a board variety of different materials, including glass, plastic, metal and wood. It is much less expensive and gives the same high quality durable finish and gleam people obtain through electroplating. Hence this is driving the market growth for chrome metal powder.
Chrome Metal Powder Market Challenges
Expensive Use in Chrome Plating
Due to the very toxic nature of chrome plating, it is heavily regulated by government.Chrome plating takes significantly more time than spraying on chrome and is very expensive. Since the parts must be dipped in vats for the chroming process, there is a limit, to the size of the part that may be chromed. Cost of the chemicals is greater and the chrome plating process is hard to control. Whereas according to Trademap (ITC) chromium powders are about USD $10,690 per unit in 2019. So, this high price may hinder the market growth for chrome metal powder market.
Market Landscape
Technology launches, acquisitions and R&D activities are key strategies adopted by players in the chrome metal powder market. Major players in the chrome metal powder market are Amg Advanced Metallurgical Group, N V, Bell Group, Delachaux Group, Exo Tech, Hascor International Group, Industrial Metallurgical Holding, Kohsei Co, Ltd, Loudishi Dajin Xincailiao, Midural Group, Tritrust Industrial Co, Ltd, among others.
Acquisitions/Technology Launches
- In November 2019, AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group N.V. has finalized the acquisition of the assets of International Specialty Alloys (“ISA”), a leading U.S. producer of titanium master alloys and other binary alloys for the aerospace market, from Kennametal, Inc.
- In February 2019, French Delachaux Group has closed the acquisition of the Frauscher Sensor Technology. The Delachaux Group now holds the major share in the company. The remaining shares are held by the Frauscher Management Team.
