Automobile Metal Stamping in the US industry analysis
Automobile metal stamping companies produce metal vehicle parts, including body panels, trim pieces, bumpers and other structural components from sheet metal, often using a machine or stamping press. The industry struggled through the current period, enduring severe travel restrictions, manufacturing slowdowns and weak economic growth. Torrid new car sales and pent-up travel demand have supported post-pandemic revenue growth, but rampant inflation and high interest rates curtailed these trends. The industry's high degree of vertical integration has enabled companies to quickly shift production and benefit from growth in 2023 and 2024. Overall, revenue has contracted at an expected CAGR of 2.3% to $39.6 billion through the current period, despite a 0.5% jump in 2024, where profit recovered to 1.8%.
Trends and Insights
- Automobile metal stamping companies struggled during the pandemic. Poor consumer confidence, low business sentiment and lockdown restrictions discouraged consumers from purchasing new vehicles and traveling.
- SUVs and light truck manufacturers make up the largest market. SUVs, CUVs and pickup trucks are extremely popular in the United States, driving this market's expansion.
- Most companies have operations in the Great Lakes region. Automobile metal stampers prioritize access and proximity to major automakers.
- Larger, vertically integrated companies dominate the industry. Most companies leverage resources from automakers to gain a competitive advantage.
