The global performance elastomers market is expected to grow from $12.72 billion in 2021 to $13.65 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.31%.The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, effecting many markets across the globe. The performance elastomers market is expected to reach $19.47 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 9.28%.

The performance elastomer market consists of sales of performance elastomers products by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that refers to polymers composed of repeated units of a single monomer or multiple monomers constructed with the help of long chains of atoms, mainly carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.These performance elastomers are used in manufacturing industrial products, lubricants, molds, tires, vehicle parts, prosthetics, and others.

Performance elastomers have a unique combination of high-temperature performance, durability, superior electrical insulating capabilities, and transparency.

The main types of performance elastomers are nitrile-based elastomers, fluoroelastomers, and silicone elastomers.Nitrile-based elastomers refer to emulsion polymers produced by using rubber polymerization techniques.

It is used by automotive & transportation, healthcare, industrial machinery, building & construction, electrical & electronics and others.

Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the performance elastomers market in 2021.North America is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period.

The regions covered in the performance elastomers market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa.

Increasing demand in the automotive and transport industry is expected to propel the performance elastomers market.Economies worldwide have been steadily growing, which has increased the standard of living, further increasing the purchasing power.

The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic also resulted in individuals preferring a safer mode of transportation that promoted social distancing and thus boosted the growth of automobiles.With the increase in gas prices, there has also been wide adoption of EV vehicles that aim to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

This increasing demand for automotive has led to a surge in the uses of performance elastomers in automobiles as they are lightweight and provides enormous design freedom for interior and exterior components. For instance, in April 2022, in a report published by European Automobile Manufacturers Association, in 2021, 79.1 million motor vehicles were produced worldwide, a 1.3% increase over 2020. Additionally, according to the Global EV Outlook 2021, consumers spent USD 120 billion on electric vehicle purchases in 2020, a 50% increase over 2019. Therefore, increasing vehicle production has led to a boost in performance elastomers’ use, thus driving the performance elastomers market.

The development of eco-friendly high-performance elastomers is a key trend gaining popularity in the performance elastomer market.Due to the increased environmental concern, the elastomers market is witnessing the need for eco-friendly elastomer products.

Sustainable and bio-based elastomers products are a critical component for achieving these objectives.Many companies operating in performance elastomers are developing eco-friendly and safe elastomers for their clients to strengthen their market position.

For instance, in May 2022, Dow, a US-based chemical and plastics manufacturer, developed ENGAGE REN, plant-based high-performance polyolefin elastomers used in sustainable footwear. This advancement ENGAGE REN polyolefin elastomers (POEs) are made from renewable energy and plant-based feedstock such as used cooking oil, allowing the footwear industry to reduce its carbon footprint while producing more sustainable products with the same outstanding quality, such as lightweight foams with equivalent hardness, improved abrasion resistance, and polymer consistency.

In December 2021, Pexco LLC, a US-based manufacturer of plastic pipes, tubing, and plastic extrusion services, acquired Performance Elastomers Corporation (PEC) for an undisclosed amount.With this acquisition, Pexco will expand its silicone and thermoplastic elastomer products and widen its capabilities to include other high-performing polymer solutions to provide even greater value to customers in mobility, recreational vehicle, and truck aftermarkets, as well as expand into other industries where these specialized products are required.

Performance Elastomers Corporation (PEC) is a US-based custom provider of rubber, silicone, and thermoplastic elastomer products.

The countries covered in the performance elastomers market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK and USA.
