Elastomeric Sealants Market Trends

Elastomeric Sealants Market Overview: The elastomeric sealants market is expected to witness a growth of over USD 6.68 billion by 2030, with 6.22% CAGR during the forecast 2021-2030. Elastomeric sealants are the bonding materials, which are used for finishing, protecting surfaces, and sealing. They expand and seal the surface and create a waterproof barrier when applied to a crack or space. Elastomeric is the capability of a material and its ability to elongate the material when stress is applied to it and return to its original shape and size when stress is removed. Elastomeric sealants pose advanced properties to control moisture and water. An elastomeric sealant is used on various surfaces, which includes steel, cladding, windows, glass, roads, bridges, stones, metal, concrete, wood, and others. Elastomeric sealants are durable and easy to handle due to its elastic texture, which dries and maintains the flexibility of the material. The high demand for elastomeric sealants for applications in glass windows, cladding, bridges, roads, and highways, among others, in the building & construction industry, is a major factor driving the growth of the global elastomeric sealants market in the review period. These sealants are widely used in construction activities, apart from its applications in building and construction. Elastomeric sealants are gaining significant traction in the automotive sector for its wide range of usage in the installation of windscreen frames, water shield sealing to protect the interior from moisture, shock vibration, corrosion, and thermal stress. Additionally, the demand for sophisticated bonding products from high-tech electronics manufacturers to protect sensitive electrical equipment such as capacitors, sensors, and ICs is expected to propel the market growth over the review period. Furthermore, the growing use of elastomeric sealants in aerospace & defense for escape slides, life rafts, fuel tank sealing, and other applications is expected to add considerable value to the market during the forecast period. According to a World Bank Study, in 2018, the organized furniture industry is expected to grow by 20% every year, and a significant part of this growth is likely to come from growing consumer markets in Asia-Pacific, which may further fuel the market growth. The shifting trend towards the renovation of houses coupled with the high disposable income is likely to propel the elastomeric sealants market growth during the forecast period. However, the threat of substitution from construction foam tapes and regulations concerning VOC emission may challenge the market growth during the forecast period. Regional Analysis: Asia-Pacific is the fastest-growing region in terms of both value and volume in the elastomeric sealants market, owing to the increasing infrastructural activities in this region, especially in India and China. Furthermore, the growing demand for automotive and electronics due to the changing lifestyle is expected to fuel market growth. Additionally, the growth of the furniture industry and woodworks in this region is anticipated to boost the market growth over the forecast period, 2019–2025. North America accounts for a considerable market share due to the leading aerospace & defense sector. The US is one of the leading military powers, and the demand from this sector for elastomeric sealants drives the market growth. The automotive sector drives the European elastomeric sealants market due to the high production, sales, and exportation of the automobile in this region. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), the European automotive export revenue stood at USD 135.4 billion in 2016. Though, Latin America is currently witnessing a moderate growth and is poised to grow substantially over the coming years owing to the upcoming infrastructural projects in the region. The Middle East & Africa is projected to showcase a considerable growth on account of the high demand from the building & construction industry in countries such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and others.
