Increasing construction industry demand is expected to propel the growth of the high-strength aluminum alloys market in the coming years. The construction industry includes the organizing, expansion, design, building, and maintenance of structures and infrastructure. High-strength aluminum alloys have characteristics that include corrosion-resistant longevity, lightweight nature, and recycling capacity, making them appropriate for a wide range of building applications such as building projects when weight reduction, lifespan, and durability against environmental factors are required. For instance, in October 2023, according to the US Census Bureau, a US-based primary body in the United States Federal Data System responsible for producing financial and demographic information, construction expenditure is expected to increase 7. 4 percent (1. 8 percent) to $1,983. 5 billion in August 2023, compared to $1,847. 3 billion in August 2022. Therefore, the increasing construction industry demand is driving the high-strength aluminum alloys market.

Major companies in the high-strength aluminum alloys sector are concentrating on developing innovative products to improve performance and reduce weight across various applications, including aerospace, automotive, and defense. Additionally, they are working on enhancing corrosion resistance and manufacturability. High-strength aluminum alloys are highly regarded for their exceptional strength, thermal stability, and excellent processing capabilities, making them particularly suitable for aircraft structural components and engine parts. For example, in July 2024, Xi’an Bright Laser Technologies Co., Ltd (BLT), a China-based manufacturer specializing in metal additive manufacturing, introduced two innovative materials for additive manufacturing: BLT-AlAM500, a high-strength aluminum alloy, and BLT-Ti65, a high-temperature titanium alloy. These materials are specifically designed to improve the capabilities of 3D printing, especially in the aerospace sector and other demanding industries.
