10. India – Growing Market Opportunities
Market segments Key Observations :
Automotive
w Production of equipment for the telecom
industry was valued at $11.87 billion in 2010
w Industry is currently facing a lull in growth but is
Telecom
expected to come back on track next year
w Production revenue is set to increase to $23.5
billion by 2014

11. Telecom
w Development and sales of enclosures and cooling solution.
w Extruded aluminum superior as a heat dissipater.
w Outperforms cast aluminum with thermal conductivity that is twice as
effective and copper by lower weight.
w Cooling fins can be made very narrow, closely spaced and with high
degree of precision.
12. India – Growing Market Opportunities
Market segments Key Observations :
Automotive
Telecom
w Metros are being launched in many cities across
India
Mass Transportation w Bombardier & Alstom have set up operations
w Friction Stir Welding technology is not available at
present
13. India – Growing Market Opportunities
Market segments Key Observations :
w Building industry is the largest consumer of extrusions
Construction is now moving heavily into Tier II and Tier
Building Industry III cities in addition to Tier I cities
w Current demand for extrusions from this sector is
largely for simple door & window sections
w The usage of building systems and Unitized systems are
yet to gain large scale acceptance in the market
Solar Power
14. Challenges in the Indian extrusions market
w Aluminium is still used only for simple applications at present in India
w Complex applications, a small market by itself, are catered to through
imports
w Technical know how is significantly lesser than in Europe & USA
w Customers prefer to buy “off the shelf” products; This will have to
change with more industrial applications coming in
w Price is a key driving factor and India is amongst the most price sensitive
markets in the world.
w Quality extrusions will cost more , but pays in the long run. Evaluate the
whole life costs while deciding where to buy from.
15. Challenges in the Indian extrusions market
w Building & Construction sector is becoming more quality conscious
Architects / Big builders are directly interacting with Extruders for
supply of profiles
w Some of changes happening are:
Wider sections
More complex shapes
Tighter tolerances
w Focus towards buying ‘Solutions’ rather than ‘off the shelf profiles’ is
increasing
16. India – Growing Market Opportunities
Market segments Key Observations :
Building Industry
w With a large population & high solar insolation , is an
ideal location for solar energy production
w In 2009, India unveiled a plan to produce 20GW of solar
power by 2020; Current production from Solar Power is
Solar Power less than 1 GW
w Aluminium is the metal of choice for the Solar Panels
being manufactured; About 40-50 tonnes of extrusions
are used for mounting systems per MW of installation
17. Mitigating Climate Change
w Reducing the carbon footprint will influence all businesses
w Government of India has announced 25% reduction in the emission
intensity by 2020
w Measures to be taken:
Mandatory fuel efficiency for vehicles by 2011
Model energy conservation codes for buildings & recommend
states to make this mandatory
Clean technology in power generation
Increase the forest cover
18. Toward Green Solutions
w At one third the weight of steel and extensive design options,
Aluminium is the ideal solution for the building & construction
industry
w A variety of options for Green solutions in buildings:
Photo Voltaic integrated systems
Unitized solutions
Double skin curtain walling
Thermal breaks
Sun light louvers
w Increased popularity of using aluminium formwork and shutters as it
improves construction speed and quality significantly
19. Focus on energy efficiency
w Buildings account for over 40 per cent of the global
consumption of electricity
w Energy-efficient solutions for buildings are increasingly important
This window profile section has a low U-value thanks to a
Photovoltaic integrated solutions for active buildings skeleton of fibreglass-reinforced polyamide that
effectively interrupts the thermal path and reduces
convection and radiation between the inner and outer
aluminium profiles

21. Towards Solutions
w With growing demands in India, extruders need to find new ways to
differentiate themselves from others
w Extruders know the possibilities & limitations of aluminium extrusions and
this knowledge needs to be passed on to customers to help design better
products
w With more demand expected from the Industrial segments, extruders need
to get involved with customers in the design stage itself
w Extruders in Europe & USA have moved further down the value added
chain and supply fabricated products to customers
w This trend is also slowly being adapted by few Indian extruders
