Research and Markets: Automotive Metalcasting Report - Out Now

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4f76a2/automotive_metalca) has announced the addition of the "Automotive Metalcasting Report" report to their offering.

The Automotive Metalcasting Report is a definitive market review, including a detailed survey of metalcasters views of the industry, and detailing the likely changes in the automotive industry and their implications right up to 2012. The report details current industry trends, the roles of technology and how the usage of metal is evolving.

And considerable change is underway. The production map of the global automotive industry is re-focusing on emerging markets and production in lower-cost countries. At the same time, global legislators are requiring the automotive sector to find solutions to the environmental problems posed by greenhouse gas and carbon dioxide emissions. And all of this in a highly competitive and price-sensitive context, where customers are demanding more equipment, better performance and greater fuel economy from their vehicles.

Also within the report are company profiles of all the major players in the industry, as well as a global supplier directory.
