Shipments of nonferrous types will accelerate, led by magnesium-based castings. Ferrous castings will continue to lose market share to nonferrous, both in value and tonnage. This study analyzes the 15.8 billion ton US industrial castings industry. It presents historical demand data (1996, 2001, 2006) and forecasts for 2011 and 2016 by casting type (ductile, iron, gray iron, steel investment, malleable iron, die) and market (e.g., industrial machinery, motor vehicles, electrical and electronic equipment, construction and HVAC, primary and fabricated metals, aerospace). The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 38 major players including General Motors, Alcoa, Precision Castparts, ThyssenKrupp AG, INTERMET, AMSTED Industries, Grede Foundries, and Leggett & Platt.
