Increased in industrial machinery and automobile sector is driving the bearing market forward and to thrive. This two segments account for a lion's share contributing to the growth of global bearings market. Increased investment in aerospace industry is boosting the growth of this market. The increase in demand for railway equipment, electronics, and aircraft in the developing regions is demonstrating record sales growth for bearings and related products. Growing concerns over global warming is increasing the demand for wind turbines and thus driving the growth of the bearing market. The global Automotive Bearing market to grow at a CAGR of 7.42% over the five year period between 2013 and 2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the growing Global Motorcycle market. The global automotive bearing market has also been witnessing the increasing development of integrated bearings. Bearing demand in the US is expected to increase 4.4% every year to the value of $12.9 billion by the end of 2017, which will prove to be a notable improvement from the 2007-2012 five year period. Roller bearing demand is expected to continue to outpace other product types, supported by motor vehicle, machinery and wind turbine markets. Ball bearing consumption is also expected to post healthy gains, which will be supported by increasing manufacturing output.
