Sheet Metal Product Manufacturing in Australia Industry Data and Analysis
The Sheet Metal Product Manufacturing industry’s performance has faltered because of fluctuating demand across various market segments. Although diverse applications in construction and beverage manufacturing have offered some stability, low demand from manufacturing and rising competition from imports and substitutes have harmed revenue. Increased purchase costs and operational challenges are intensifying profit pressures. Meanwhile, the Australian dollar’s appreciation over the past five years has made low-cost alternatives more attractive compared to domestically produced products. Revenue is expected to have fallen at an annualised 1.2% over the five years through 2024-25, to $2.5 billion. This trend includes an anticipated drop of 0.7% in 2024-25 as ongoing challenges continue to plague the industry.
