DUBLIN, October 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Metalworking Fluids Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global metalworking fluid market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.06% during the period 2016-2020.

According to the report, growth of automotive industry in China will be a key driver for market growth. In 2015, the automotive sector, part of the transportation industry, was the primary user of metalworking in APAC, especially in China. Metalworking fluids are consumed in many operations such as stamping, machining, and forging.

In APAC, China contributes the highest sales in this segment. The prompt evolution of the automotive sector in the country due to rising urbanization and the growing influence of the Western economies, has elevated the overall consumption of metalworking fluids.

Further, the report states that metalworking fluids do pose some imminent toxicological hazards. For instance, functional fluids used in the industrial sector are affected by concerns regarding greenhouse gas emissions, global warming, and ozone depletion. Stringent environmental regulations are affecting the selection, use, and disposal of metalworking fluids in many end-user applications.

The manufacturers of metalworking fluid are continually reducing the level of toxic chemicals and corrosivity index, which degrades the soil and water quality. The increasing preference for sustainable and environmentally safe metalworking fluids is also posing a challenge to the market growth. Stringent testing practices to evaluate eco-friendly fluids create a challenge for manufacturers to develop fluids that follow certain legislated parameters about toxicity, biodegradability, bioaccumulation, lower emissions, and recyclability.
