As with most markets over the past several years, the bearing industry has experienced a major dip in demand due to its close linkage with global GDP trends. At the beginning of the financial crisis in 2008, we saw drop offs in both bearing turnover and types, with little recovery seen until this past year.

(GIA) predicts that sales for the world’s bearing market will reach 101 billion US dollars in 2018.   Analysts believe that the return of the basic industries along with favorable trends on the investment front will lead this amazing recovery and growth.

Along with the projected increase in overall business development, there are trends which could have a significant impact on your business and your choice of bearing supplier:

1. Increased Demand:With the financial crisis waning, analysts predict to see bearing demand increase, sparked largely by a gradual expansion of durable goods and other bearing-reliant applications.2. Geographical Shift: Analysts predict the Asia-Pacific region will experience the greatest amount of growth between now and 2016 by an average of 10% per year and is anticipated to reach $54 billion for total bearings turnover.
