LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Technavio’s latest market research report on the global automotive air filter market provides an analysis on the most important trends expected to impact the market outlook from 2017-2021. Technavio defines an emerging trend as a factor that has the potential to significantly impact the market and contribute to its growth or decline.
Praveen Kumar, a lead analyst from Technavio, specializing in research on the powertrain sector says, “In 2016, the global automotive air filter market was dominated by the passenger cars segment with more than 82% of the market share. This is mainly due to the higher sales of passenger cars compared with LCVs and M&HCVs across regions. About 94% of the passenger cars sold globally, are equipped with HVAC compressor, which requires two air filters, which augurs well for the growth of the market.”

The top three emerging market trends driving the global automotive air filter market according to Technavio automotive research analysts are:
- Increasing demand for multi-filtration system
- Growing need for HEPA filtration system
- Rising demand for high-performance air filters
Increasing demand for multi-filtration system
The multi-filtration system has a larger design, which can intercept pollen, particulates, and active charcoal. This helps in reducing the contaminants that adversely impact the health of drivers.
The dust particles having size less than 10 µm (nanometer) can lead to serious health problems, including lung infections and difficulty in breathing. But a car having multi-filtration system can intercept dust particles of size less than 4 µm, thus providing better, comfortable, and healthier driving conditions.
Growing need for HEPA filtration system
There is a growing demand for efficient air filtration systems to tackle the increasing air pollution problem. It has led to the evolution of high efficient particulate air (HEPA) filtration systems, which is proven to be effective against particulates to the size as small as 0.3 microns. Due to growing air pollution, even the emerging countries are moving toward the Euro 6 emission norms.
“According to studies conducted in 2015, approximately one-third of the urban population, globally, is suffering from breathing problems and hence, people are demanding HEPA filtration systems in vehicles,” says Praveen.
Rising demand for high-performance air filters
The demand for high-performance air filters has surged due to stringent government regulations on evaporation emission and engine exhaust particulate emission. In the case of low performing air filters, the concentration of contaminants emitted from the engine is more, resulting in increased air pollution and non-compliance of government regulation. Thus, OEMs, such as MAHLE, have developed high-performance air filters to comply with the stringent government regulations to reduce the air pollution and concentration of contaminants.
