South Korea Non-Ferrous Metals Industry Trends and Drivers:
The demand and subsequent changes in South Korea's non-ferrous metals market have taken place due to many factors stemming from the country's established industrial base and increasing demand for lightweight, defense metals (Mahjoubi, 2023). Major industries, e.g FY Electronics Inc., will increasingly use increasing amounts of metals like aluminum, copper, titanium, magnesium, and other low-density materials, due to their corrodability and strength-to-weight ratio (Brisbin, 2020). Sustainability is also influencing market-related changes, with significant improvements occurring around recycling technology and process waste reduction methods (Choi, &Yoon, 2023; Narayan, 2018). Also if the growth of alloy development advances, it may open up opportunities for more high-strength and/or lightweight materials for the development of high-tech products, e.g., batteries for electric vehicles and related renewable project (McCullough, 2021; Zhang &Qu). As a developer of technologies, South Korea is likely to continue using an increasing number of metals that strongly relate with all forms of technological development.
Another notable trend is the incorporation of smart manufacturing and digital technologies in the non-ferrous metals sector. Companies are utilizing automation, data collection, and data analytics to enhance production, creating precision and efficiencies in metalworking and processing. The increasing demand for sustainable products has also led manufacturers to research bio-based and low-impact alternatives to extraction. Meanwhile, the expansion of 5G infrastructure and construction of smart cities has increased the demand for conductive metals such as copper for telecommunications and urban projects. South Korea's focus on innovation and sustainability continues to shape the evolution of the non-ferrous metals industry, contributing to enhanced global competitiveness while enabling the country to achieve its industrial and environmental targets.
