The automotive airbags silicone market size is expected to see rapidly grown in the next few years. It will grow to $902.83 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period is expected to stem from the widespread adoption of autonomous and electric vehicles, the implementation of stricter emission standards, the integration of advanced sensor technologies, a rising demand for high-performance vehicles, and a notable shift toward the use of smart materials in automotive manufacturing.
Mandatory regulations mandating the installation of airbags in front seats of vehicles are anticipated to drive the automotive airbag silicone market in the foreseeable future. These regulations, aimed at safeguarding occupants during collisions or accidents, specifically target the high-risk front seat occupants and drivers. For instance, in India, vehicles produced after April 1, 2021 (for new models) and June 1, 2021 (for existing models) must be equipped with airbags for the front passenger, enhancing the necessity for airbags in front seats within the automotive industry.
The burgeoning automobile industry is poised to significantly fuel the growth of the automotive airbag silicone market. This industry, encompassing the production, design, and sale of motor vehicles, is witnessing an upsurge in vehicle production globally. Factors such as adherence to safety standards, consumer demand for safety features, technological advancements, and the rise of electric and autonomous vehicles are propelling the demand for automotive airbags and the silicone materials integral to their manufacturing. For instance, in 2022, global vehicle production surged by 5.7%, totaling 85.4 million units, as reported by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association. The advancement of active safety systems poses a potential constraint on the growth of the automotive airbag silicone market. These proactive safety systems operate continuously while the vehicle is in motion, aiming to prevent accidents. Features like automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring have garnered high satisfaction rates among consumers. According to Consumer Reports' 2022 survey of over 47,000 car owners, satisfaction levels were notably high for various active safety features, indicating a shift in preference that might impact the demand for automotive airbag silicone.
A burgeoning trend in the automotive airbag silicone market is the innovative design integration using silicone rubber fabric coatings and seam sealants. These elements significantly enhance the integrity of airbag design, contributing to better occupant protection during impacts. In 2022, products like Dow’s SILASTIC™ silicone engineered elastomers conform to industry and regulatory requirements, catering to diverse airbag types, including side curtain, front-center, knee-bolster, frontal (driver and passenger), and side airbags, highlighting advancements in airbag design.
Leading companies within the automotive airbag silicone market are actively developing recycling solutions to gain a competitive edge. Recycling automotive airbag silicone entails repurposing airbag components to create sustainable materials suitable for various automotive applications. Notably, Toray Industries, Inc. Achieved a breakthrough by developing recycled nylon 66 from silicone-coated airbag fabric scraps in January 2023. This innovation, named Ecouse AMILAN, stands as an eco-friendly alternative, maintaining the quality of virgin nylon 66. Toray's commitment to eco-friendly recycled materials under the Ecouse brand showcases their dedication to sustainability and waste reduction in the automotive sector.
