As of 2022, the value of construction projects awarded in Saudi Arabia was USD 23.1 billion.
The polishing and electroplating techniques, which offer excellent corrosion, wear resistance, and durability while increasing the look, are driving the growth of the metal finishing chemicals market, which is expected to reach exceptional value in the future. Furthermore, clean and degrease metal substrates like steel, nickel, and aluminium, metal finishing chemicals are often used more frequently. In addition, the aerospace and automobile industries are increasing their use of metal-finishing chemicals. Therefore, based on these expanding applications, the market will probably increase significantly over the next several years.
Rising Demand from The Automotive Sector
As of 2021, China is the world's largest automotive manufacturing country.
Growing in The Electrical & Electronics, and Industrial Machinery Sector
Electronic components and parts are coated and electroplated to increase electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and solderability to withstand wear. Rhodium, copper, nickel, silver, platinum, and other materials are used to polish electronics components when these chemicals are utilized in the electrical and electronics sector for various applications, including capacitors, resistors, PCBs, semiconductors, etc. As a result of all the contributing factors, this market has developed potential in the forecast period.
In addition, the use of metal finishing chemicals in industrial machinery for the finishing of industrial tools and components, among other things, is also increasing demand. Furthermore, the makers of metal finishing chemicals are anticipated to benefit financially from their forays into adjacent sectors and their targeting of new products and customers. These reasons are predicted to drive the growth of the metal finishing chemicals market in the forecast period.
Zinc Will Continue To Be a Key Material
Zinc metal plays a significant role in the market for metal finishing chemicals. When it comes to using chemicals to polish metal, zinc plating is said to be a prevalent procedure. The corrosion resistance of the underlying substrate is considerably increased by zinc finishing or plating. In addition to these advantages, zinc coating is known for its low cost, low-stress deposit, enhanced strength, ductility, high-temperature tolerance, flexibility, and many other benefits. Thus, all such factors and trends are expected to drive the demand for metal finishing in the upcoming years.
