Screw, Nut & Bolt Manufacturing in Canada - Industry Market Research Report

Bolted Down: Import Penetration is Expected to Fall Modestly, Providing More Opportunities for Operators

Over the past five years, Canada's Screw, Nut and Bolt Manufacturing industry has deflated amid a broader decline in downstream demand. Declining demand from transportation equipment and aircraft component manufacturing has pressured domestic fastener producers, while swelling import competition has reduced the pool of domestic customers. Countries with low operational costs have boosted price competition, forcing Canadian producers to differentiate through product quality. The pandemic exacerbated declines, causing revenue to contract at a CAGR of 1.6% over the past five years, with revenue falling to an estimated $926.1 million in 2023.
