Busbar Electroplating Market Driver

Rising demand for electroplating from aerospace and defense application

• The aerospace and defense industries' increasing demand for electroplated busbar for improved conductivity is expected to drive electroplating market growth. It is the best option for the aerospace and defense industries, which require less space-consuming but high-current-flowing-capacity substances. They have a higher conductivity than ordinary cables and wires while taking up less space. Over the forecast year, these factors are expected to drive the market.

Demand of Electroplated Busbar in Data Centers

• Power management solutions in data centers have evolved to the point where they are both flexible and easily adaptable to changing requirements. In data center industry, the electroplated busbar is a cost-effective and flexible alternative to traditional cables, providing operators with a solution for intelligent and future-proof power distribution. Electroplated busbars are quickly becoming irreplaceable simply due to their convenience and safety. The cost of cabling and trunking, as well as the time required for installation, are much higher when using traditional cables than using electroplated busbars. These factors are expected to accelerated the demand for electroplated busbars in the market.

Busbar Electroplating Market Restraint

Stringent Regulations Against Pollutants from Electroplating Industry

The electroplating industry is a major contributor to pollution of the environment because its processes emit toxic materials, heavy metals, and solid wastes via effluents and air emissions, there are stringent regulation that needs to be followed in Electroplating industry. For instance, The Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act of 1974 and the Hazardous Wastes (Management, Handling, and Transboundary Movement) Rules of 2008 regulate the electroplating industry. The effluent from the electroplating industry must comply with the new standards notified under Section 9 of Schedule 1 of the Environment (Protection) Act of 1986. These factors are expected to create a challenge in the growth of busbar electroplating market.
