across all end markets, it is led by the oil and gas, automotive, construction, and pump and compressor markets. Steel growth will be led by the oil and gas, turbine, material handling, and pump and compressor markets. The return of the automotive and
transportation markets should bring about short-term growth to alumi- num and magnesium castings. For copper-base alloys, the valve, pump and compressor, and construction
markets are keys to growth. Currently, the U.S. metalcast- ing industry is made up of 2,001 facilities, down from 2,336 five years ago. This reduction can be attrib- uted to the recession, technological advancements, foreign competition and tightening regulations. T e U.S. also saw changes in
capacity availability and utilization over the past fi ve years. In 2007, utilization was at 75% and dropped
to 51% in 2009. T at number jumped to 75% in 2011 and 80% in 2012. Total available capacity has dropped from 16,800,000 tons to 15,308,000 since 2007. However, it is expected to grow in 2013 to 15,750,000, with an 82% utilization. T e total number of metalcasting sites in the U.S. also has dropped from 2,190 in 2007 to 2,010 in 2012. A slight decrease is expected in 2013, bringing the total sites down to 2,001.
