The microporous insulation market is projected to register a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period.
The microporous insulation market size is projected to grow from USD 132 million in 2018 to USD 165 million by 2023. Growing demand for microporous insulation in industrial application and high thermal resistance and weight and space-saving property of microporous insulation is expected to drive the demand for microporous insulation during the forecast period. However, lack of awareness about the use of microporous insulation acts as a challenge to the growth of the microporous insulation market.
The industrial application segment is expected to lead the microporous insulation market, in terms of value, during the forecast period.
The industrial application segment, by application, is expected to lead the microporous insulation market during the forecast period. This is due to an increase in the demand for microporous insulation in various applications, such as furnaces, bakes, ladles, foundry, boilers in iron & steel, non-ferrous metal, cement, ceramic, and glass industries. In addition, rapid industrialization in APAC and South America is projected to drive the demand for microporous insulation in this application segment.
Rigid boards & panels are expected to be the largest product type segment in the microporous insulation market, in terms of value, between 2018 and 2023.
The rigid boards & panels product type segment is expected to lead the microporous insulation market during the forecast period. This is because the rigid boards & panels have extremely low thermal conductivity and high thermal stability because of which they are used in different temperature-sensitive and critical applications. In addition, it has a growing demand from different applications, such as industrial furnaces, thermal batteries in the energy & power sector, and voyage data recorder in aerospace & defense, among other sectors.
Europe is projected to lead the microporous insulation market, in terms of value, between 2018 and 2023.
The microporous insulation market has been studied for North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa. Europe is expected to lead the microporous insulation market during the forecast period, owing to the rising awareness to conserve energy in the region. In addition, the presence of stringent regulations regarding the use of insulation materials, which comply with Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and European Dangerous Substances Directive Amendment 97/69/EC, drive its demand in the region. Furthermore, the growing demand for insulation materials, which can withstand high temperatures and the presence of various manufacturers of microporous insulation in the region also drive its demand.
