Overview of the Global Metal Manufacturing Market

The metal manufacturing industry, a segment of the main manufacturing sector, is expected to reach around $4000 billion in 2020.  Going forward, the market is expected to stabilize due to the recovery of developed economies and hastening growth in emerging markets such as Russia, the US, China, Brazil, and India. While the demand for metals has started soaring from industries such as automotive, electrical, and construction, factors including transportation, raw material deficiencies, shortage of skilled labourers, and fluctuating prices of aluminium and steel are sure to shake up the metal manufacturing industry.
