Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market Share

Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market Overview

Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market size was valued at USD 3.9 Billion in 2022. The Aircraft Engine Nacelle industry is projected to grow USD 6.5 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.40% during the forecast period (2022 - 2032).

Aircraft engine nacelles are components that are made up of composites, titanium alloys, nickel-chromium, stainless steel, and aluminum alloys. There are different types of aircraft engine nacelles, such as rear mounted nacelle, pylons under wing, and clipped at wing. Aircraft engine nacelles have applications in civil jet, business jet, private jet, and other aircraft, including military aircraft.

Global Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market is growing at a rapid rate due to the increase in air passenger traffic and the subsequent demand for new aircraft, increased demand for fuel-efficient and noise-reducing nacelles, and decline in the cost of composite materials. However, backlogs in aircraft deliveries are expected to hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period.

There has been a significant increase in demand for aircraft engine nacelles with the increasing demand for new aircraft. A nacelle is a vital component of an aircraft. It is used to house an aircraft engine, fuel, and various systems of an aircraft engine. Therefore, the increase in air passenger traffic and subsequent demand for new aircraft are expected to drive the growth of the global aircraft engine nacelle market during the forecast period.

Global Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market has been segmented based on type, material, application, and region. By type, segments of the market are rear mounted nacelle, pylons under wing, clipped at wing, and others. By material, the market has been classified as composites, titanium alloys, nickel chromium, stainless steel, and aluminum alloys. Based on the application, the market has been divided into civil jet aircraft, business jet aircraft, private jet aircraft, and others.

Aircraft Engine Nacelle Market Segmentation

The nickel alloys segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Nickel chromium has good hardness, strength, and corrosion-resistant characteristics and is used in heat-processed forgings that need higher hardness and strength as compared to plain carbon steels. Owing to their excellent corrosion resistance and good hardness nickel chromium alloys have been widely used in aircraft components from the last few years.
