Aluminum casting is an industrial process that involves pouring molten metal into molds shaped to the final object. This procedure is utilized in the manufacturing of aluminum products, either as part of a machine or product, or for commercial industrial production, contributing to the creation of metal parts with specific details and quality.
The primary types of aluminum casting processes include die casting, sand casting, and permanent mold casting. The die casting market comprises sales of aluminum by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) referring to a manufacturing process where molten metal is poured to achieve desired shapes. Die casting is particularly used to enhance automotive fuel efficiency by reducing weight. Aluminum casting finds applications in various sectors, including transportation, building & construction, industrial, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have impacted the aluminum casting market by increasing the cost of imported aluminum ingots, alloys, and casting equipment, leading to higher production costs for foundries. Transportation and industrial sectors are most affected, particularly in North America and Europe where reliance on imported raw materials is significant, while Asia-Pacific experiences shifts in export competitiveness. On the positive side, tariffs have encouraged localization of casting operations, boosted domestic aluminum sourcing, and supported investments in recycling-based casting facilities.

The aluminum casting market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $73.64 billion in 2025 to $79.26 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in automotive manufacturing, expansion of industrial machinery production, rising use of aluminum in construction applications, availability of cost-effective casting technologies, demand for complex metal components.
The aluminum casting market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $104.57 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing production of electric vehicles, rising adoption of automation in foundries, growing demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles, advancements in casting simulation and tooling, increasing use of aluminum castings in renewable energy systems. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for lightweight aluminum cast components, growing adoption of high-pressure die casting for complex parts, rising use of aluminum castings in automotive powertrain and chassis, expansion of permanent mold casting for improved surface finish, increasing focus on precision and defect reduction in casting processes.
The rising demand in the construction sector is anticipated to drive the growth of the aluminum casting market in the future. Construction involves the planning, designing, assembling, and building of physical structures, facilities, or infrastructure. Aluminum casting is valued in the construction industry for its durability, design flexibility, and cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for a variety of applications. For example, a report from Oxford Economics, a UK-based economic information services company, stated in March 2023 that construction activity is projected to grow from $9.7 trillion in 2022 to $13.9 trillion by 2037, primarily driven by significant construction markets in China, the US, and India. As a result, the increasing demand in the construction sector is contributing to the growth of the aluminum casting market.
