Isostatic Pressing Global Market Report 2024

The isostatic pressing market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.3 billion in 2023 to $7.85 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to the growth in the aerospace industry, increasing manufacturing production, growing defense budgets, and the rise in automotive production.

The isostatic pressing market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $10.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing urbanization, rising electricity demand, growing healthcare expenditure, and growth in the medical devices industry. Key trends expected in this period include a focus on strategic investments, capacity expansions, technological advancements, new advanced project developments, product innovations, installation of new machines, and strategic partnerships and collaborations.

The isostatic pressing market is experiencing significant growth, primarily driven by the rapid expansion of the aerospace and defense industry. This industry engages in the design, manufacturing, and development of advanced space systems, aircraft, and defense capabilities. Isostatic pressing plays a crucial role in this sector, being utilized for the production of aerospace castings, jet aircraft engine components, and turbine blades. Additionally, it finds application in the defense industry for manufacturing bulletproof materials and gun parts. The soaring growth of the aerospace and defense sector, projected to reach $70 billion by 2030, according to the India Brand Equity Foundation, will strongly contribute to the expansion of the isostatic pressing market.

The isostatic pressing market is expected to receive a boost from the increasing global demand for electricity. Hot isostatic pressing is employed in the power-generating sector to enhance the density of turbine blades, discs, and other components, thereby eliminating porosity and improving overall performance. Exxon Mobil Corporation reports a projected annual increase of 1.8% in global electricity demand by 2050. This rising demand for electricity is poised to be a key driver for the growth of the isostatic pressing market.

Major players in the isostatic pressing market are actively involved in innovation to introduce new products and solutions. An example is Quintus Technologies AB, a Sweden-based high-pressure manufacturing technology company, which developed the Purus Toolbox for hot isostatic pressing. This innovative solution facilitates the achievement of component surfaces free of oxidation after the hot isostatic pressing process, eliminating the need for labor-intensive, expensive, or hazardous pre- and post-processing. Quintus Purus aims to improve component design, reduce manufacturing costs, and minimize environmental impact, ultimately enhancing the efficiency of the HIP process.

Strategic investments in new systems and technologies are also a key focus for companies in the isostatic pressing market. For instance, HT-MX Tratamientos Secundarios, a Mexico-based heat treatment company, entered the hot isostatic pressing (HIP) market by investing in a QIH 48 M URC press manufactured by Quintus Technologies AB. This investment made HT-MX the first company in Mexico to acquire a HIP system. The QIH 48 M URC press features a unique uniform rapid cooling feature, combining heat treatment and HIP into a single step.

In January 2023, strategic partnerships and investments are shaping the landscape of the isostatic pressing market. Trive Capital, a US-based private equity firm, announced a partnership and investment in Kittyhawk, Inc. This collaboration aims to capitalize on growth opportunities in the aerospace supply chain, positioning Kittyhawk, Inc. as a differentiated service provider offering material processing and hot isostatic pressing (HIP) services for diverse applications, including space, defense, commercial aerospace, and medical sectors.
