AIRCRAFT AND AEROSPACE ALUMINUM CASTING COMPONENTS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global Aircraft and Aerospace Aluminum Casting Components Market size stood at USD 1.4 billion in 2025, growing further to USD 3.12 billion by 2034 at an estimated CAGR of 9.34% from 2025 to 2034.

The United States Aircraft and Aerospace Aluminum Casting Components Market size is projected at USD 0.43145 billion in 2025, the Europe Aircraft and Aerospace Aluminum Casting Components Market size is projected at USD 0.34541 billion in 2025, and the China Aircraft and Aerospace Aluminum Casting Components Market size is projected at USD 0.43355 billion in 2025.

The term "aluminium casting" refers to a process used in the manufacturing of aluminium products that are sold as components of products or machines as part of commercial industrial production and used in the production of metal parts with precise details and quality. Molten metal is poured into molds that have been carved out in the shape of the desired final object.

sand casting, die casting, and permanent mold casting are the three primary categories of aluminium casting methods. Sales of aluminium by businesses (organizations, sole proprietors, and partnerships) that refer to a manufacturing procedure where molten metal is poured for preferred forms make up the die-casting market. By lowering weight, die casting increases the fuel efficiency of automobiles.

KEY FINDINGS

  • Market Size and Growth: USD 1.4 billion in 2025, growing further to USD 3.12 billion by 2034 at an estimated CAGR of 9.34% from 2025 to 2034.

  • Market Segmentation: high-pressure die casting represents roughly 50% of light-alloy casting production, making it a major segment for aluminum aerospace components where geometry permits.
  • Recent Development: multiple industry reports note expanded aerospace casting investments and new dedicated facilities in Asia and North America during 2024–2025.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Halt in Supply Chain Hampered Mining Industry

The COVID-19 pandemic stopped the production of the swaging machine due to the lockdown, which has slowed the expansion of the market. Sales of continuous mining equipment were already impacted by COVID-19 at the beginning of 2020, and sales increased in 2021. Before the outbreak of the coronavirus, the US, Italy, Germany, the UK, and China were among the nations with the highest demand for continuous machinery equipment. However, this demand has since decreased. The upliftment of restrictions is making the market recover from the loss caused by the pandemic.

LATEST TRENDS

Rising Use of the Product in Automobile Sectors to Revitalize Market Trends

aircraft and aerospace aluminum casting components are used in the automobile sector, which is estimated to augment growth in the market.
