What are Metal Cleaners?

Metal cleaners are used to remove dirt, oil, grease, stains, corrosion oxides, rust particulates, scale, and stencil marks. Phosphates and phosphoric acids are used in the preparation of acid and alkaline cleaners. Alkaline cleaners are effective for removing solid soils, fatty soils, oils, and grease, among others.

Alkaline cleaners consist of surfactants, water, and builders. Acid cleaners are used for removing lime, scale, smut, and milkstone, among others. Acid cleaners are a combination of acids and salts along with detergents and wetting agents.

The market for metal cleaners was mainly driven by huge demand from the manufacturing industry. Metal cleaners are used in various end-user industries such as industrial, automotive, aerospace, residential, medical, and healthcare equipment and other applications.

Metal cleaners are used in these end-users to clean and protect the surfaces from particulates and oil & grease marks. However, health issues and regulations can be a major restraint for the metal cleaners market. The growing market for green metal cleaners is likely to be a major opportunity for the market.

Strong Usage in Metal Cleaners Manufacturing, Automotive, and Aerospace Sectors

Metal cleaners are extensively used in the automotive sector. Metal cleaners are used for various vehicle engine parts such as cylinder heads, camshafts, crankshafts, and others. Rising demand for automotive systems such as brake and steering systems, as well as turbochargers, is expected to boost the global metal cleaners market. Moreover, the increased acceptance of electric vehicles is likely to benefit the automotive sector, thereby propelling the global metal cleaners market.

  • For example, in 2019, China produced and marketed over 1.5 million plug-in electric automobiles.

Furthermore, advances in the aerospace sector as a result of increased tourism and freight transport are anticipated to spur the growth of the global metal cleaners market.

In addition, increasing demand for metal cleaners from the manufacturing sector is projected to drive the global metal cleaners market. Metal cleaning is a basic procedure used to generate final products. The growing need for industrial equipment in emerging economies is bolstering the expansion of the manufacturing industry, accelerating the growth of the global metal cleaners market.

Moreover, other industries, such as medical and pharmaceutical, are predicted to contribute favorably to the global metal cleaners market.

High Demand for Bio-Based and Green Alternatives

The high demand for bio-based and green alternatives is expected to provide new growth prospects in the global metal cleaners market.

The primary constituents in bio-based cleaning solutions are animal and/or plant materials. They are manufactured from a renewable resource and, with a few exclusions, do not contain toxins, synthetics, or environmentally harmful compounds. These materials are in high demand in North America and Europe as a result of government legislation and activities encouraging the use of bio-based materials.

Businesses are now inventing and introducing bio-based alternatives to the market.

  • For example, Gemtek Products provides SC Aircraft and Metal Cleaners, a bio-based aircraft and metal cleaning product. It is a versatile solution that can remove fluids, oils, fuels, carbon, and other typical pollutants from sensitive magnesium, aluminum, aircraft exterior and parts, ground support equipment, and aerospace production.

Since bio-based alternatives do not react with other chemicals, they assist in avoiding hazardous conditions. The usage of bio-based alternatives also eliminates the need for any special personal protective equipment (PPE), cutting costs and improving worker safety. It is also safe to use and dispose of and can be stored indefinitely.

North America to Lead Global Market Share

North America is projected to lead the global metal cleaners market during the forecast period. This is due to the increased use of environmentally friendly metal cleaners as a result of tight laws and rising consumer awareness.

Moreover, aqueous-based metal cleaners are among the most often used metal cleaning chemicals in the region. They have largely replaced solvent-based chemicals, which are hazardous to the environment because of their high VOC content.

Key Industry Participants

Some of the key manufacturers of metal cleaners are 3M Company, BASF SE, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Henkel, ICL Performance Materials, Lubrizol, and The Dow Chemical Company, among others.
