Sintered Metal Filters Market Report 2025

The sintered metal filters market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.47 billion in 2024 to $1.58 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial growth, stringent environmental regulations, quality and purity requirements, globalization and supply chain dynamics, rising awareness of filtration benefits.

The sintered metal filters market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.14 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to industry-specific demand, increasing emphasis on water and wastewater treatment, stricter emission standards, focus on energy efficiency, rapid urbanization and infrastructure development. Major trends in the forecast period include growing demand for environmental filtration solutions, advancements in material technology, rising emphasis on industrial filtration, global expansion of manufacturing activities, stringent regulatory standards, focus on healthcare and pharmaceutical applications.

The sintered metal filters market is poised for significant growth, primarily driven by the increasing stringency of environmental regulations. These regulations, involving restrictions and obligations to prevent environmental degradation or enhance it, are compelling industries, particularly in power generation and automotive sectors, to adopt sintered metal filters for emission control. A notable example is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in March 2022, which introduced new emission control standards for trucks and heavy-duty vehicles, necessitating the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Consequently, the sintered metal filter market is expected to benefit from the rise in environmental regulations.

An expected rise in petroleum refining is set to drive the growth of the sintered metal filters market in the coming years. Petroleum refining, often referred to as oil refining, is an industrial process that converts crude oil into various valuable products. Sintered metal filters are essential for improving the efficiency, reliability, and environmental compliance of petroleum refining operations. For example, in March 2024, Statistics Canada, a government agency based in Canada, reported that domestic demand for refined petroleum products increased by 0.5% to 103.1 million cubic meters in 2023. This marks the third consecutive year of growth, primarily fueled by substantial increases in kerosene jet fuel (+13.6%) and motor gasoline (+2.2%). Consequently, the rise in petroleum refining is positively influencing the sintered metal filter market.

The expanding manufacturing industry is anticipated to boost the growth of the sintered metal filters market in the future. The manufacturing industry encompasses all processes that transform raw materials into finished goods, which are either sold to consumers or utilized by other businesses in their production processes. Sintered metal filters offer various applications to the manufacturing sector, requiring precision and filtration solutions capable of withstanding high temperatures, harsh chemicals, and continuous operation. For example, in May 2024, the Australian Bureau of Statistics, a national statistical agency, reported that manufacturing industries in Australia recorded an increase in EBITDA to $51.57 billion in 2022-23, up from $50.44 billion in 2021-22. Additionally, in November 2023, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, a U.S. government agency, revealed that the U.S. manufacturing industry contributed $2.3 trillion, representing 12% of the total U.S. GDP. Therefore, the growth of the manufacturing industry is fueling the expansion of the sintered metal filters market.

A prominent trend in the sintered metal filters market is the adoption of strategic partnerships by major companies to fortify their market position. In November 2022, Rypos Inc., a US-based diesel particulate filter solutions company, collaborated with Dürr Universal and Mack Molding to manufacture sintered metal filters and related components. Rypos' innovative approach involves the use of electrically heated, sintered metal filters, differentiating itself from traditional exhaust heat methods. Similarly, Porvair Filtration Group commissioned a fully integrated powder metallurgy production cell in February 2023 at its Caribou, Maine, USA, facility to produce sintered powder products such as sintered metal filters.

In March 2022, Mott Corporation, a US-based filtration products company, made a strategic acquisition of ASCO Filtri, expanding its reach to Europe, Africa, and the Middle East markets. ASCO Filtri, an Italy-based filtration products company, specializes in manufacturing sintered metal filters. This strategic move underscores the growing importance of partnerships and acquisitions in the dynamic landscape of the sintered metal filters market.

Sintered metal filters are porous metallic objects, typically cylindrical in shape, created through the sintering process. Elevated temperatures are employed to merge and fuse copper and metal alloys, resulting in the development of porosity and the formation of a mesh.

The primary categories of sintered metal filters include low porosity (< 30%), medium porosity (30~60%), and high porosity (>60%). Low-porosity sintered metal filters are characterized by having pores constituting less than 30 percent of the bulk. These filters find applications in various industries such as metallurgy, power, chemicals, medicine, electronics, and others, serving purposes such as fluid filtration, ice filtration, and air filtration.
