Market Overview:
The global rubber based flexible foam market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for rubber based flexible foam in various applications such as HVAC, plumbing, refrigeration, automotive, oil & gas and others. Additionally, the growing demand for lightweight and energy-efficient products is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Rubber based flexible foam is a synthetic polymer material that is used as a cushioning and insulating material. It is made up of small rubber particles that are suspended in a gas-tight matrix. This allows the foam to be compressed and then quickly return to its original shape. Rubber based flexible foam can be used in a variety of applications, including furniture, automobile seats, packaging, and insulation.
NBR Based:
NBR (Natural Rubber) based flexible foam is a type of polyurethane foams, which are produced from the reaction between natural rubber and chemicals. NBR based flexible foams have high demand in end-use industries such as automotive & transportation, building & construction and marine. The growth factor for this market is the growing demand for lightweight materials in automobiles coupled with increasing application scope of these products in various end-use industries due to their durability, versatility and energy absorption capacity.
EPDM Based:
Polyethylene (PE) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer in the rubber based flexible foam market. It is produced from ethylene and oxygen, hence it is also known as EPDM or Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer. The PE-based flexible foams are manufactured by reacting the monomers with each other, heat, and catalyst to form polymeric material which on addition of more diene produces higher amount of cross linked polymerized material called foam.
Application Insights:
The automotive application segment led the market and accounted for more than 30.0% share of the global revenue in 2017. The growing demand for lightweight and high-performance materials in the automotive industry is expected to drive product demand over the forecast period.
HVAC is estimated to be one of the fastest-growing segments during the forecast period owing to increasing use of these products as insulation material in residential & commercial buildings, HVAC systems and refrigeration equipment among others. In addition, favorable regulations regarding energy consumption are likely to promote product usage across various end-use industries including building & construction and transportation which are anticipated to propel overall growth over next seven years or so.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for a major share of global population and has been witnessing rapid urbanization, which has led to an increase in construction activities. This factor is anticipated to drive demand for rubber based flexible foam products across various applications such as HVAC, automotive, oil & gas, electrical & electronics among others.
The Asia Pacific economy is characterized by developing countries such as China and India that are experiencing strong economic growth along with increasing industrial output including manufacturing of automobiles and consumer appliances including refrigeration equipment; air conditioning equipment; heating equipment; building insulation materials etc. These factors are likely to boost product demand over the next eight years or so.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for rubber based flexible foam in the automotive industry for noise and vibration control.
- Rising demand from the construction sector for insulation and acoustic applications.
- Growing use of rubber based flexible foam in furniture and bedding products.
- Increasing penetration of rubber based flexible foam in footwear industry.
- rising demand from medical sector for cushioning and insulation applications
