Welding gas, also known as shielding gas, is a type of gas used in welding processes to protect the welding area from atmospheric contamination and ensure a stable arc. It creates a shielding atmosphere around the weld, preventing oxygen and other gases from reacting with the molten metal. Common types of welding gases include argon, helium,carbon dioxide, and mixtures of these gases. The specific gas or gas mixture used depends on the welding process and the materials being welded. Welding gas plays a crucial role in achieving high-quality welds by minimizing defects and improving weld appearance and strength. It ensures improved weld quality, minimizes oxidation and contamination, enhances arc stability, and aids in heat control.
According to Data Bridge Market Research, the Global Welding Gas/Shielding Gas Market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 5.73% in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.
“Increasing demand for welding processes boosts the market’s growth”
The increasing demand for welding processes in various industries, such as automotive, construction, and manufacturing, is driving the growth of the welding gas or shielding gas market. As welding is a widely used joining technique, the need for high-quality welds with improved strength and appearance is rising. Welding gas, or shielding gas, plays a vital role in ensuring a stable arc and protecting the weld area from atmospheric contamination. As a result, the demand for welding gases, such as argon, helium, and carbon dioxide, is experiencing growth to meet the expanding requirements of the welding industry.
What restraints the growth of the global welding gas/shielding gas market?
“Increasing cost of welding restraints the market’s growth”
The growth of the welding gas or shielding gas market can be restrained by the increasing cost of welding. As the cost of materials, labour, and energy used in welding processes rises, businesses may look for cost-saving alternatives or reduce their welding activities. This can directly impact the demand for welding gases, as companies may opt for different welding techniques or lower-cost alternatives that require less or no shielding gases. The increasing welding costs pose a challenge to the growth of the welding gas market and may necessitate innovative solutions to address cost concerns and maintain market momentum.
