The overall consumption of metalworking fluids is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.15% in terms of volume during 2016-2020. This is attributable to the growth in the manufacturing sector during the forecast period. However, the market growth will be hampered because of the changes in manufacturing technology and longer lasting products. The off-shoring of production from the US has decelerated and may reverse.This factor is most likely to increase the consumption rates in North America and also dampen it in APAC.
