LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent global coated abrasives market report. This research report also lists 28 other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.
Some of the key growth factors of the market include the growing demand for coated abrasives for cutting tool applications and for applications in niche end-user industries such as electronics. The market vendors are focusing on introducing new products such as coated abrasives with stearate coating for a smooth and scratch-free finish. Also, growing competition in the global market is forcing vendors to focus on building brand awareness through marketing communication programs.
Competitive vendor landscape
The global coated abrasives market is highly fragmented with the presence of many vendors. The market is dominated by the global players: 3M, Saint-Gobain, Bosch, Hermes Schleifmittel, and the KWH Group. Many regional players are present in the market, especially in emerging regions such as APAC.
“Vendors compete based on price, innovation, quality and performance, and customer centrism. Many vendors also provide customized manufacturing services. However, the buyers of coated abrasives in many developed and developing regions differ in their opinion about the importance of these factors,” says Swapnil Tejveer Sharma, a lead metals and minerals analyst from Technavio.
Researchers at Technavio believes that successful and long-term incumbency can be achieved through optimized production that generates economies of scale through penetration into multi-regional markets.
