The global aluminum market for automotive industry is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during the period 2016-2020.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from the research team said: A trend which is driving market growth is the use of aluminum products in crash management systems. The crash management systems consider factors such as the ability to absorb collision energy, requirement of staying intact at high-speed impacts, weight management, initial and repair cost, and manufacturability. These are structural automotive models consisting of bumpers and other attachments connected to a longitudinal beam of the car to absorb maximum collision force during accidents. Aluminum extrusions are ideal material for crash management system as they are lightweight and cost effective.

According to the report, a key growth driver is the shift from ferrous to non-ferrous casting.

In addition, a shift from traditional metals such as steel to aluminum has been noted.
