The expansion of the automobile industry is fueling the growth of the aluminum systems market. The automotive industry encompasses the design, development, production, marketing, and sale of vehicles. Automakers are driven to produce various vehicle styles and models due to shifting consumer preferences. Aluminum plays a vital role in the automotive sector, with aluminum systems used in the manufacturing of car structures and bodies, electrical wiring, wheels, lighting, paint, gearboxes, air conditioner condensers and pipes, engine components, and more. For example, in June 2024, Statistics Canada, a Canadian government agency, reported that the total number of registered road motor vehicles in Canada reached 26.3 million in 2022, marking a 0.3% increase from 2021. Thus, the rapid growth of the automotive industry is expected to drive the demand for aluminum systems during the forecast period.

The increasing demand for aluminum in packaging is anticipated to fuel the growth of the aluminum systems market. Aluminum in packaging refers to the use of aluminum materials in various packaging solutions. Aluminum is a versatile material widely used in the packaging industry due to its unique properties and advantages. As the demand for aluminum in packaging rises, it leads to an overall increase in aluminum consumption, thereby boosting the production and supply chain of aluminum, which benefits manufacturers in the aluminum systems industry. For instance, in April 2022, the Environment Agency reported that over 156,000 metric tons of aluminum packaging were collected for recycling in the UK in 2021, achieving a record 68% recycling rate, indicating a year-over-year increase. Therefore, the growing demand for aluminum in packaging is a significant driver of the aluminum systems market.

Collaborations and partnerships have emerged as a prominent trend in the aluminum systems market. Leading companies in the aluminum systems sector are actively pursuing collaborations and partnerships to meet customer demands, leverage each other's resources, and expand into new markets. In June 2022, Sharp Corp, a US-based motor vehicle manufacturer, established a partnership with Hydro Aluminum Metal. This collaboration positions Sharp to offer Hydro CIRCAL's eco-friendly solutions to the global automotive industry while maintaining the strength and weight-saving capabilities provided by Hydro's aluminum product range. Hydro Aluminum Metal is a company based in Oslo, specializing in aluminum and renewable energy.

Major players in the aluminum systems market are introducing advanced technologies, like inline surface inspection for aluminum profiles, aiming to enhance their market position and profitability. Inline inspection enables immediate detection of surface flaws - such as scratches, dents, or discolorations - during profile production. This proactive identification helps in taking corrective measures promptly, reducing the likelihood of defective products reaching the final production phase. For example, in April 2023, ASCONA, a German company specializing in optical profile measuring systems, and D-CUBE, a Greek technology company, unveiled an integrated solution for inline surface inspection of aluminum profiles. This advanced inspection involves specialized equipment and AI-based technologies, such as Promex CYRUS, which identifies various surface imperfections in real-time and relays informative alerts, irrespective of the profile thread's size, shape, or quantity.

In December 2022, Norsk Hydro ASA, a Norwegian company focusing on aluminum and renewable energy, acquired Hueck building systems and the extrusion business, marking a strategic move to fortify its position in Germany and other European markets. This acquisition significantly strengthens Hydro's presence in the extrusions and building systems sector, laying a robust foundation for potential expansions. Hueck Gmbh & Co. Kg., based in Germany, is known for producing and supplying aluminum profile systems used in windows, doors, and facade applications.

Aluminum systems encompass a range of products designed to create, assess, and provide support for doors and windows that are available to both the general public and the trade. Additionally, some system firms not only supply aluminum bars and components but also manufacture and distribute their own doors and windows. These systems extend beyond doors and windows to include building insulation, canopies, aluminum railings, iron, stainless steel, security shutters, and various other applications.

The main alloy types of aluminum systems are wrought aluminum alloy and cast aluminum alloy. Wrought aluminum alloy is crafted from pure aluminum ingots, melted with precise alloying substances to form a specified grade of aluminum. The smelted alloy is then cast into large slabs or billets, and the final shape is achieved through processes like rolling, forging, or extrusion. Alloying elements used in aluminum systems include silicon, magnesium, manganese, copper, and other additives. Aluminum systems find applications in transportation and logistics, packaging, construction, electrical and electronics, among other industries.
