Market Overview:

Rapidly increasing industrialization and urbanization has led to the increasing demand for machinery and increased consumerism across various end-use industry verticals and indirectly created an increased demand for abrasives.

Used commonly for finishing and/or polishing of materials to deliver a smooth final effect, abrasives applications have grown considerably in terms of scope and scalability. The on-going expansion of the automotive industry and the growing furniture and metal fabrication industry have resulted in the proportional growth of the abrasives industry. Increasing freelance positions and work from home opportunities have upsurged the demand for home office furniture such as desks, which has consequently increased the demand for abrasives. Moreover, with rising global populations and swift urbanization, the demand for housing has gone up and with it, the demand for well-made furniture which requires the extensive use of abrasives for a smooth finish. The general demand for durable consumer goods has to lead to an increased scope for the consumer electronics sector. These sectors are growing at a considerable pace, particularly in emerging markets. Emerging markets have a truly wide scope of opportunity as the automotive, electronics and furniture sectors in these countries are witnessing robust growth.

Despite the promising future in store for the market, fluctuating costs of raw materials are expected to pose a challenge to the growth of the global abrasives market. Abrasives are witnessing increased usage as surface cleaners and as an important step in coating preparation. This trend is expected to result in market expansion opportunities. Moreover, opportunities for the market are expected to rise in the medical sector as abrasives are increasingly being used in the production of medical equipment.
