The global foundry production saw a sharp decline in 2020. During the next few years we expect a recovery. The production in Western Europe and in the NAFTA region showed a greater shrinkage than China. Even in the next years China play the dominant role in the global foundry industry. But the trend towards e-mobility in the car manufacutering will change the mix of materials used in the car production. This will result in new chances and new risks for the global foundry industry.
