Copper is a highly malleable and ductile metal with high thermal and electrical conductivity and antibacterial characteristics, which make it ideal for numerous industrial applications. Bronze and brass are two important alloys of copper finding usage in several application areas. The ease of usage and excellent malleability of copper facilitate high rate of production of accurate copper shapes at relatively lower prices than other substitutes.

A steep rise witnessed in infrastructure development activities in developing countries in the past few years has led to a substantial rise for copper. As the construction industry continues to grow at a swift pace, and is expected to do so in the next few years as well, demand for copper in developing countries of Asia Pacific and in other developing regions such as Latin America is expected to remain high over the next few years. Moreover, the rising global output of entities such as domestic and consumer appliances, transportation equipment, industrial machinery, and an array of other durable goods is also leading to the increased demand for copper.

But market faces stiff competition from cheaper alternatives such as aluminum, titanium, and plastic for a variety of application areas, which is expected to restrain the market’s growth to a certain extent over the forecast period. Nevertheless, the market will benefit from ongoing research and development activities in the field of green construction.
