Welding consumables refer to flux and filler materials used for joining or combining various metals through welding. The flux acts as a deoxidizer to prevent the formation of pores, whereas the filler materials are melted to fix the joints during the welding process. Some of the metals used in the production of welding consumables include low alloy or nickel steel, copper, rutile, ilmenite and aluminum. These metals are used for the fabrication of stick electrodes, fluxes and solid, flux-cored and submerged arc welding (SAW) wires, which are extensively used in the construction, automobile, transportation and energy industries.
Significant growth in the construction industry, resulting from extensive residential, commercial and industrial infrastructural development, is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. For instance, welding consumables, such as flux-cored wires and stick electrodes, are widely used in the manufacturing of various steel-based construction components and materials. Furthermore, the increasing demand for innovative automobile designs that offer enhanced safety and comfort to the passengers is providing a thrust to the market growth. Welding consumables are used for manufacturing lightweight components to increase the overall fuel efficiency of the vehicle. Additionally, the adoption of novel laser and ultrasonic welding techniques in the manufacturing of robotic, electric and automotive components is anticipated to drive the market further.
