At 5.1% CAGR, Asia Pacific Abrasive Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 31,642.71 Million by 2030, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights' research, the Asia Pacific abrasive market was valued at US$ 21,280.50 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 31,642.71 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.1% from 2022 to 2030. Adoption of abrasives in automation & robotic applications and rising demand for abrasives from electrical and electronics industry are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Asia Pacific abrasive market growth.

According to the report published by the International Federation of Robotics in 2022, the total annual robot installations worldwide reached 517,385 units in 2021, a rise of 31% compared to 2020. The automotive industry registered ~119,000 units of annual robot installations worldwide, accounting for 23% of total robot installations in 2021, significantly driven by the component supplier segment. According to a press release by the International Federation of Robotics in 2023, robot density in South Korea was estimated at 2,867 industrial robots per 10,000 employees. In contrast, in China, robot installations in the automotive industry reached 61,598 units in 2021, accounting for 52% of the global robot installation share. In 2021, 380,911 units of robots were installed in Asia, a rise of 38% compared to the 2020 level. Industrial robots are gaining the highest demand from end-use industries such as automotive and electronics original equipment manufacturers. The increase in the use of robots in end-use industries is attributed to the reduction in the average selling price of robots. According to Castrol Ltd's research, more than 4 million industrial robots are expected to be operational worldwide by 2025. The rising use of abrasives in automation and robotic applications is attributed to the transition to industrial manufacturing. The advancement in automation technology and increased use of robots in various sectors such as automotive, electronics, and aerospace have driven precision engineering. Abrasives are significant components for facilitating tasks such as grinding, polishing, and deburring with unparalleled accuracy and consistency. The adoption of abrasive-equipped robots streamlines production processes, minimizes downtime, and leads to cost savings. Market players, such as 3M Co, VSM Abrasives, and Norton Abrasives, offer abrasives with distinct characteristics for robotic applications. As automation continues to evolve, the utilization of abrasives with robotics is expected to revolutionize industrial manufacturing, offering high precision, productivity, and performance.
