Fasteners form a vital part of any structure as they help in joining two or more components together. Economic development in countries such as China, Brazil and India has led to a rise in disposable income of consumers which in turn has resulted in growing demand for automobiles. This factor is expected to be one of the primary reasons driving the growth of the market. In addition, rise in construction and maintenance activities all across the world is expected to be an important factor which will boost the demand for fasteners over the forecast period. However, imposition of high anti-dumping duties by the European Union is expected to hamper growth of the fasteners market. Development of fasteners which are customized for niche application segments such as railways and solar equipment is expected to open opportunities for the growth of the market within the forecast period.
Externally threaded industrial fastener was the largest product segment, accounting for over USD 25 billion in 2011. This product segment is expected to show the fastest growth in the near future on account of rapid industrialization and rising demand for durable goods. (…)
