Industrial Castings: United States

Report Overview

Industrial Castings: United States

This report forecasts to 2023 and 2027 US industrial castings demand and shipments in nominal US dollars at the manufacturer level. Total shipments are segmented by product in terms of: ductile iron; other iron (e.g., compacted graphite iron, gray iron, malleable iron, molds and stools for heavy ingots); steel investment; other steel such as carbon steel, high alloy steel, and other alloy steel (e.g., stainless steel); aluminum die; other die (e.g., copper, lead, magnesium, tin, zinc); non-die aluminum; non-die copper; and other nonferrous such as cobalt, magnesium, and nickel.

To illustrate historical trends, total demand, total shipments, and the various shipment segments are provided in annual series from 2012 to 2022.

Castings produced by the same establishment that further transforms the castings into finished products are not included in this report’s stated shipments or demand figures. Further excluded are castings produced with plastic, plaster, or other nonmetal materials, and castings used for applications such as molds, scale models, and toys. Die cast metals exclusively encompass nonferrous metals. Re-exports of industrial castings are excluded from demand and trade figures.

Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
