DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Aerogel Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Form (Blanket, Particle, Panel, Monolith), By Product (Silica, Carbon, Polymers), By End Use, By Technology, By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2018 - 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
North America was the largest regional market in 2016 in terms of revenue, driven by robust growth in various end-use industries, especially in U.S. Furthermore, positive outlook of the oil and gas industry is expected to boost demand over the next few years. Aerogel offers several advantages such as low installation costs and improved pipeline compression resistance.
The market is fragmented in nature and is marked by presence of several global as well as regional players. Key players include Aspen Aerogels Inc., Cabot Corporation, Aerogel Technologies LLC, BASF SE, and Dow Corning Corporation. The vendor landscape is characterized by new product launches as manufacturers are investing on R&D activities to increase their market presence across geographies.
Key Findings
- By product, the silica-based aerogel segment was valued at USD 394.67 million in 2016. Silica is the most commonly used aerogel and is widely used for insulation purposes in various industries such as oil and gas, construction, and automotive.
- Blanket emerged as the largest form segment in 2016, accounting for 70.3% of the global revenue. Monolith, particle, and panel together made up for rest of the global revenue.
- On the basis of end use, the building and construction sector is slated to hold the largest market share by 2025 in terms of revenue. Space heating consumes most of the energy in homes and efforts are being taken to increase the usage of aerogel for insulation.
- By technology, supercritical drying was estimated to be the largest segment in 2016, accounting for 78.1% of the global revenue.
- Europe was the second-largest market, driven by projects such as AerSUS (run by a group of companies and research institutions to develop new aerogel applications and products for the aerospace industry). Such initiatives are expected to result in the further expansion of the aerogel market in Europe.
- The global aerogel market is highly competitive with a handful of key players such as Aspen Aerogels and Cabot Corporation holding a majority share of the market. These players have a stronghold in R&D, better intellectual properties, established and well-recognized products, and brands, thereby making it difficult for new players to compete in the market.
