The increasing usage of ceramic foam as filters in the metal casting industry and strict regulations for pollution control is driving the market.
Market Size - USD 344.40 million in 2019, Market Growth - CAGR of 3.8%, Market Trends - Growing application in insulated and soundproof infrastructure.
The Global Ceramic Foam Market has been estimated to garner a valuation of USD 466.45 billion by the end of 2027. Being a special type of ceramics-made foam, ceramic foams are exceptionally strong and widely utilized in high temperatures. The presence of a broad array of non-oxide and oxide ceramic materials in the ceramic foam makes it highly usable in interpenetrating composites, gas filters, thermal insulation, and various biomedical applications. Such a wide range of applications is presumed to propel the ceramic foam market.
Ceramic foams have been primarily used in the manufacturing process of numerous crockery items. Rapid technological advancements are, however, proven to extend the range of applications of ceramic foams. This foam is considered as a superior substitute of alumina ceramic fiber, aluminosilicate, and mullite, owing to its ceramic-fiber-free nature and high heat tolerance and resistance. Moreover, ceramic foams are excellent insulators used in several acoustic and thermal insulations. These advantages are also projected to trigger demand in the market.
Additionally, ceramic foam holds properties like low density, high strength, and strong resistance against thermal shock. These properties are anticipated to stimulate demand for ceramic foams in distinct end-user industries. Furthermore, this special foam finds different applications in varied sectors, such as furnace tooling and fixturing, molten metal filtration, heat exchangers and heat sinks, hot gas filters, thermal protection systems, fuel injectors/vaporizers, insulation, energy storage devices, lightweight armor and mirrors, noise reduction, rocket engines, and catalyst supports. Therefore, surging demand from different end-user industries and sectors is the major factor projected to promote the ceramic foam market’s growth. In addition, the rising use of ceramic foam-based materials in automobile diesel engines in order to limit the soot’s emission is foreseen to foster the growth of the ceramic foam market.
Region-wise, Europe accounts for the largest market share, succeeded by North America. Rapidly revamping infrastructure and changing climatic conditions in Europe have impacted the fast installation of different insulators; thus, the requirement for ceramic foams has increased. Such a need is likely to propel the growth of the European market for ceramic foams. On the other hand, in the Asia Pacific region, many emerging countries such as India, Singapore, and other ASEAN countries are showcasing demand for ceramic foams, utilizing it in various industrial applications.
