The global silicone in heavy machinery market is expected to grow from $1.22 billion in 2021 to $1.30 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. 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 manyevery markets across the globe. The silicone in heavy machinery market is expected to grow to $1.66 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 6.5%.

Silicone in the heavy machinery market consists of the sale of silicones in heavy machinery products by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that are used as adhesives and sealants in consumer and industrial applications. Silicone in heavy machinery refers to synthetic high-performance material that is employed in electrical heavy machinery in the form of reactive silanes, silicone fluids, and silicone polymers.

The main types of silicone in heavy machinery are elastomers, liquid silicone rubber, and other types.An elastomer refers to long-chain polymers of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and silicon that exhibit viscosity as well as elasticity properties and whose molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces.

The applications involved transformers and switchgear. The various sales channels involved direct channel or institutional sales and indirect sales.

Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the silicone in heavy machinery market in 2021. The regions covered in this silicone in heavy machinery market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East, and Africa.

Growing demand for silicone rubber in the wind energy sector across the globe is expected to propel the growth of the silicone market going forward.Silicone rubber refers to an elastomer made of silicone, which contains silicon as well as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

In wind turbine blades and tower sections, silicone rubber is frequently utilised for its long-lasting, adhesive, and sealing qualities for lubrication, thermal interference, and sealing.For instance, in November 2021, according to the Global Wind Report published by the Global Wind Energy Council, a Belgium-based international trade association for the wind power industry, 93 GW of new capacity wind power was installed worldwide, with a 53% year-on-year increase, making 743 GW of wind power capacity globally.

Therefore, the growing demand for silicone rubber in the wind energy sector is driving the silicone market.

Product innovation is a key trend gaining significant popularity in silicone in the heavy machinery market.Major market players are concentrating their efforts on innovating new products in various industries that aid in thermal stability, durability, flexibility, and electrical conductivity.

It provides properties such as flame retardant, steam resistant, UV and radiation resistance, and metal adhesion. For instance, in December 2020, WACKER, a Germany-based company that develops and manufactures silicone rubber and polymer products operating in the silicone heavy machinery market, launched its newest product, ELASTOSIL eco, which is a silicone sealant based on renewable raw materials using unique bio-based methanol obtained from certified sustainable sources.

In February 2020, Elkem ASA, a Norway-based advanced material solutions company engaged in manufacturing silicones, silicon products, and carbon solutions, acquired Polysil for an undisclosed amount.The acquisition strengthens a strategic partnership between Elkem ASA and Polysil that aids in providing a platform for further specialisation and growth globally.

Polysil is a China-based manufacturer of silicone elastomer and resin materials for the electronics and medical industries operating in the silicone heavy machinery market.

The countries covered in the silicone in heavy machinery market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA.
