Gaskets And Seals Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Gaskets, Seals), By Application (Automotive, Aerospace), By End-use (OEM, Aftersales Market), And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030
Gaskets And Seals Market Growth & Trends
The global gaskets and seals market is anticipated to reach USD 81.69 billion by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This market growth can be attributed to the usage of advanced materials in producing gaskets and seals for various applications such as chemical processing, medical equipment, and aircraft production.
One of the most advanced technologies in the market is the light-curable form-in-place gasketing. Light-curing FIP materials are used in a wide range of applications, including mobile devices, lighting, HVAC, electrical devices, energy, and industrial hardware. They are designed for programmable automated dispensing to support mass production and consistency in bead profiles for flat surfaces, single walls, or channel configurations.
Seals are a critical component for energy conservation as they restrict the energy loss by controlling fluid leaks in heating process. In addition, installation of mechanical seals is also required for a machine consisting of a big ship and a rotation shaft at the center of it. As a result, this product finds several applications in oil and gas sector, such as midstream transport and downstream and upstream exploration. In Europe, around 10% of electrical power is used by pumping equipment, which is an important part of running manufacturing operations. Regulatory bodies operating in the European region and plant owners are focusing on the energy efficiency of pumps and pumping systems. This is anticipated to promote the demand for seals in the region, thereby driving the market growth over the forecast period.
Increasing utilization of steel and aluminum alloys as the primary choice for manufacturing gaskets and seals poses a threat in case the raw materials are extracted using unsustainable extraction techniques, leading to significant air pollution, residues, and wastewater sludge. Production of steel and aluminum alloys is one of the most energy-consuming industrial activities that also results in emission of CO2.
The market is characterized by presence of several companies involved in the production of a large number of products marketed under trademarked brand names. Companies in market compete based on product design, material grade, operational efficiency, and overall price. High pressure from the low-cost products manufactured by medium and small enterprises in Asia is expected to result in intensive competitive rivalry and a reduction in the overall product price.
Application industries operating in the gaskets and seals market include automotive, electrical & electronics, marine & rail, aerospace, oil & gas, chemical, food & beverage, and others. These industries procure gaskets and seals directly from product manufacturers or product distributors & suppliers. Major industry players include Airbus, Boeing, ExxonMobil, and BASF, among others.
