Global Metal Plating and Finishing Market Insights and Forecast to 2027

Metal finishing is a surface process of applying a thin layer of another metal, alloy or polymer film. It includes three major processes namely surface pretreatment, surface preparation and the actual coating process. The coating process is categorized basing on which type of element is present in the final coating process either organic, inorganic or hybrid. Due to corrosion and wear of metals it reduces its lifespan. Hence metal finishing is done to improve the life of metals thereby also improving the bonding, electric, shaping and aesthetic properties of it. Metal finishing job may include paints, ceramic coatings, lacquer and other surface treatments. The factors which affect the nature of deposit on the metal surface include current density, metal ion concentration, electrolyte concentration, plating bath solution and temperature.
The market is driven by various end-user industries, such as aircraft components, machine components, medical instruments, automotive components and so on. As the downstream consumption usually follows with developed and rapid economic growth areas, such as BRICS, the developed areas’ prefers investing to underdevelopment regions these years.

The market for Metal Plating and Finishing is fragmented with players such as Pioneer Metal Finishing, Anoplate , Lincoln Industries, CECO Environmental, Arlington Plating, Incertec, SPC, Coastline Metal Finishing, Dixie Industrial Finishing, American Plating, H&W Global Industries, Ctech Metal Finishing Inc, Nassau Chromium Plating Co and so on.

The leading companies own the advantages on better performance, more abundant product’s types, better technical and impeccable after-sales service. Consequently, they take the majority of the market share of high-end market. Looking to the future years, the slow downward price trend in recent years will maintain. As competition intensifies, prices gap between different brands will go narrowing. Similarly, there will be fluctuation in gross margin.

The industry is expected to remain innovation-led, with frequent acquisitions and strategic alliances adopted as the key strategies by the players to increase their industry presence. Market stays in mature period with a clear concentration. Meanwhile, optimize product mix and further develop value-added capabilities to maximize margins.

Significant and lasting barriers make entry into this market difficult. These barriers include, but are not to: (i) product development costs; (ii) capital requirements; (iii) intellectual property rights; (iv) regulatory requirement; and (v) Transitions’ unfair methods of competition.

Despite the presence of competition problems, due to the global recovery trend is clear, investors are still optimistic about this area, the future will still have more new investment enter the field. Even so, the market is intensely competitive .The study recommends the new entrants just having money but without technical advantage and upstream and downstream support do not to enter into this field.
