Sheet Metal Manufacturing in Australia

The sheet metal manufacturing industry produces a range of metal sheet products. Industry firms manufacture products such as ventilation ducts and bench tops, closures for wines and beer bottles, hoppers for store grain and minerals and kitchen sink. Manufacture are small in scale but quality are superior.

About industry
The industry is in the declining stage of its economic life cycle. Downstream manufacturing industries represent major markets for sheet metal product manufacturers. Many of these downstream customers have struggled over the past five years, facing rising competition from cheaper priced imports. Manufacturers in low-cost countries such as China are able to pass cost savings on to their customers in the form of lower product prices, providing local markets with a disincentive to purchase Australian products. These effects have filtered upstream and restricted domestic demand for a range of sheet metal products.


Industry Products
Industry firms primarily manufacture sheet metal products such as pressed or spun holloware, air ducts and bottle closures. Firms that mainly manufacture metal containers and other structural metal products are excluded from the industry.
