Top Five Vendors in Global Saw Blades Market

Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent Global Saw Blades Market 2016-2020 report. This research report also lists seven prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.

There are many global and regional players offering a wide range of saw blades. Saw blades that provide smooth and precise cuts, have longer blade life, and incur minimum wear and tear with continuous use are high in demand. Global vendors focus on such parameters while designing their products, whereas products offered by some regional vendors do not meet these required parameters and tend to compromise on the quality of raw materials such as steel and aluminum used in the manufacture of saw blades.

However, in emerging countries such as China and India, local players play an active role in the market. The local players have an advantage over global players in terms of availability of raw materials and product pricing and they are also trying to build strong supply chains and distribution systems that will help them gain a competitive edge in the market in the coming years.

"From a global perspective, the market displays an extremely competitive environment in both emerging as well as developed countries with many international vendors reducing the prices of their products considerably to match those of regional vendors," says Anju Ajaykumar, lead research analyst at Technavio for tools and components research.
