The Billion-Dollar Opportunity Hiding Beneath the Wings
An aircraft’s weight affects fuel consumption, flight range and payload capacity, making specialised metals essential to aircraft manufacturing. Aluminium alloys help reduce airframe weight, titanium alloys combine strength with lower weight, and nickel-based superalloys withstand the extreme temperatures inside jet engines.
As India looks to expand its domestic aerospace manufacturing capabilities, demand for these materials could create opportunities for specialised metal producers.MarketsandMarkets estimates that India’s aerospace materials market will grow from US$324.3 million in 2025 to US$462.8 million by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%.
