Automotive Seal Supporting Market

Automotive Seal Supporting Market Outlook 2021-2030:

Seals for automotive are component of the vehicle that are utilized to link automotive part. Seals prevent contaminants, leakage, and embraces pressure, thereby prevents any vehicle part damage. Seals for automotive are manufactured from various materials including aluminum, rubber stainless steel, iron, brass, nickel, and plastic and can be reformed into various designs, shapes, and coatings, which avoids leakage of vehicle part joint, wobbling, and offers outstanding reliability. Among these, rubber seals are estimated to be highly preferred by automotive manufacturers. Moreover, seals are vital components of the automotive industry are used for numerous different applications, it is small component but act as even bigger and superior purpose in the vehicle integrity. Advancements in technology coupled with superior material quality in the industry have boosted the seal lifespan, thereby offering automakers with superior quality. Furthermore, in a complex working environment, advanced automotive seals have the highest ability to resist pollutant invasion. The increase in global automotive production and the surge in automotive demand are factors that are expected to promote automotive seals to support market growth during the forecast period. Additionally, it offers several advantages such as reliability, durability, and quiet operation. However, the advent of vehicle unibody framing, which eliminates couple of seal joining components, is anticipated to restrain the seals supporting market for automotive in the near future.

COVID-19 Impact analysis

The automotive seal supporting industry is facing a major transportation delay due to the travel restrictions applied by the governments owing to the lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic. The governments across the affected countries have declared lockdown owing to the covid-19 pandemic, which has further disrupted the demand and supply chain network for the automotive seal supporting manufacturers. Majority of global automotive seal supporting sealing manufacturers are facing issues such as closure of factories and unavailability of operating cash due to the government declared lockdown which in turn disrupts the production process for the passenger car windows & exterior sealing. Automotive seal supporting industry is experiencing a devastating decline in the demand due to the cash flow problems owing to the lockdown which led to shut down of all operations for the automotive seal supporting market.

Top Impacting Factors

• Passenger car manufacturers moving towards light weight sealants, increase in demand for modified elastomers, and growing passenger & commercial vehicle market worldwide are driving the growth of the market.
• Alternative to automotive seals such as laser technology, and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber causing environmental issues is expected to hamper the growth of the automotive seal supporting market.
• Growing trend of using thermoplastic material in automotive industry can be seen as an opportunity for the market investments.

The automotive seal supporting market trends are as follows:

Passenger car manufacturers moving towards lightweight sealants

Passenger car manufacturers face major challenges in improving vehicle fuel efficiency. In order to overcome the challenge, producers are focusing on enhancing the engine efficiency and also innovating the structural design of the passenger vehicle. As well, the producer is introducing pacific standard sealing system material for the passenger cars such as teflon, high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW) and others which allows the sealing in hot & cold temperature. For instance, Sika AG (Switzerland) unveiled a new product for the transportation market named Sikaflex-268 PowerCure, which is a light weight PU adhesive and sealant especially used for vehicle glass and assembly applications. The product provides a strong weathering resistance. The passenger car sealing system is designed to be highly reliable, lightweight and safe. Compared with existing sealing systems such as carnauba wax, the production cost will be lower. Thus, the passenger car manufacturers moving towards lightweight sealants it is anticipated to boost the market growth for the automotive seal supportive market during the forecast period.
