Americas Vibrating Screen Market Forecast to 2030 - Regional Analysis by Product Type, Driving Method, and End User

The Americas vibrating screen market size is expected to grow from US$ 1.73 billion in 2022 to US$ 3.03 billion by 2030; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 7.2% from 2022 to 2030.

With the abundant availability of mineral resources, the mining industry is vital to the economy of the Americas. Vibrating screens are widely used in mining operations to separate minerals based on their size and composition. With the rise in mining activities, particularly in countries such as the US, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil, the demand for vibrating screens has increased significantly in this region. In 2021, Latin America accounted for 40% of the global copper production, with Chile (27%), Peru (10%), and Mexico (3%) leading the way. The share of Latin America in the global copper exploration expenditure has jumped from 35% to 45% in the past decade, indicating the potential for further increase in copper production. Vibrating screens are used in mining applications such as ore sorting, mineral processing, and waste disposal. In ore sorting, vibrating screens help recover valuable minerals by facilitating the sorting of ore by size and density, thereby improving the efficiency of the overall process. Vibrating screens are also employed to process coal, sand, and gravel for removing impurities to obtain high-quality products. They are also used to dispose of waste materials from mining operations, which helps protect the environment and keep a check on pollution.

The construction industry in South America also contributes to the Americas vibrating screen market size. Rapid urbanization, infrastructure development projects, and residential and commercial building construction create a high demand for construction materials such as sand, gravel, and crushed stones. Vibrating screens are extensively used in the construction industry for ensuring uniformity and quality in the final construction materials. With many upcoming projects such as Bogota Metro worth US$ 3.6 billion, sponsored by IDU, are triggering the demand for vibrating screens in the construction and related industries. Such factors have been propelling the Americas vibrating screen market growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly affected various industries worldwide, including the Americas vibrating screen market growth. The severe lockdown imposed by the government across globe to prevent the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 hindered several industries, including mining, construction, and manufacturing industries in the Americas. Before the pandemic, the Americas vibrating screen market in the Americas was experiencing steady growth. Vibrating screens were widely used in the mining industry for sorting, grading, and dewatering processes. The increasing adoption of vibrating screens across mining, construction, and chemical industries was driving the Americas vibrating screen market. The Americas, particularly countries such as the US, Canada, and Mexico, had a major mining sector, which contributed to the demand for vibrating screens. The construction sector witnessed growth, leading to increased demand for vibrating screens in applications such as aggregate processing, asphalt mixing plants, and concrete production.

Rising metals prices have kicked off exploration and mine development activity across Canada. Some new mines are under construction in the country. For instance, the Côté gold mine is an upcoming open-type project in Canada with a project cost of ~US$ 1.6 billion and a mine life of 18 years. It is located 20 km southwest of Gogama, between Timmins and Sudbury. It is the first open pit hard rock mine in Canada that would employ autonomous trucks when the first gold will be poured in the second half of 2023. In October 2023, Argonaut Gold approved its Magino gold project in Ontario. The open pit project, which would cost ~US$ 360-380 million, is projected to produce its first gold in the first half of 2023. The Odyssey gold mine (Quebec), Matawinie graphite mine (Quebec), etc., are other noteworthy projects in the country Therefore, the increase in the number of mines propels the demand for vibrating screens in Canada. The construction and infrastructure sector is expected to be another major factor catalyzing the Americas vibrating screens market growth.

Some of the key Americas vibrating screen market players include Derrick Corporation; Deister Machine Company, Inc.; Elgin Power and Separation Solutions; McLanahan Corporation; Southwest Milling and Industrial Company; Terex Corporation; General Kinematics Corporation; FLSmidth; PPM Technologies Holdings, LLC; and Eriez Manufacturing Co. Also, the presence of large number of Americas vibrating screen market players operating across the countries such as the US, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and Chile is one of the major factors for the strong competitive rivalry among the Americas vibrating screen market players.
