DUBLIN, May 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Automotive Specialty Gaskets Market, Share, Trend, Forecast, Competitive Analysis, and Growth Opportunity: 2021-2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The market for speciality gaskets in the automotive industry is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR of 5.6% during 2021-2026, taking the market to US$ 2.3 billion by 2026.

Speciality gaskets include all types of gaskets used in the automotive industry other than cylinder head gaskets. It is a flexible sealing system that helps to prevent leakages, to maintain internal pressures, and block the intrusion of foreign materials such as, dirt and pollutants. With the increasing demand for lightweight materials in the automotive industry with the sole aim to improve fuel efficiency and reduce carbon emissions, the demand for highly efficient, robust, and reliable gaskets is evolving that meet the requirements of modern automotive engines & systems. With technical advancements, gaskets now provide a cost-effective way to improve fuel efficiency paired with lowering repair and maintenance costs, extending the average life span of vehicle components.

Until 2017, the automotive industry was seeing healthy expansion. Following that, the industry had a severe downturn in 2018 and 2019, mainly due to the US-China trade war, which resulted in a global economic recession. While a good recovery was projected in 2020, the pandemic hit the industry hard in 2020, causing significant disruption and losses for stakeholders. In 2020, the market for speciality gaskets dropped by -16.0% causing unthinkable loss to the shareholders. The long-term outlook appears to be favourable.

Based on the vehicle type, the automotive speciality gaskets market is segmented as passenger car, LCV, and M&HCV. Despite a drop in 2020, passenger car is predicted to remain the largest as well as the fastest-growing vehicle type in the market during the forecast period. With the increasing production of electric vehicles, there has been an incessant demand for speciality gaskets to protect electric motors from lubricants and to cover battery housings from dirt, moisture, and external environmental conditions.

Based on the material type, the market is segmented as metallic gaskets, elastomeric gaskets, composite gaskets, and other gaskets. Metallic gaskets are expected to remain the most dominant material type in the market during the forecast period. Because of their strength, stiffness, and toughness, metallic gaskets are suitable for high-performance applications. Major automobile gasket suppliers are focused on designing cost-effective gaskets made of high-quality materials and built to endure extreme heat and pressure.

Based on the application type, the market is segmented as inlet section, central engine system, exhaust section, transmission system, battery, and others. Central engine system is expected to remain the larger segment of the market during the forecast period. Stringing vehicle emission standards across the world are enforcing automotive stakeholders to focus on engine downsizing and exhaust gas purification systems. This is increasing the demand for highly efficient engine gaskets that can withstand extreme temperature and pressure conditions.

Based on the end-user type, the market is segmented as OE and aftermarket. OE is likely to continue to be the market's larger segment throughout the projection period. High durability and reliability of the gaskets is the major factor behind the dominance of the OE segment in the automotive speciality gaskets market.

In terms of regions, Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the largest market for automotive speciality gaskets during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific is the leading producer of automobiles with huge production bases in China, Japan, India, Korea, and Thailand. North America is projected to witness the highest growth in the automotive speciality gaskets market during the forecast period, mainly driven by the USA.
