The heat-shrink tubing market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.14 billion in 2023 to $2.26 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as the expansion of the electronics industry, the increasing manufacturing of medical devices, the adoption of technology in the automotive industry, widespread industrial applications, and advancements in manufacturing processes.
The heat-shrink tubing market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.86 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to global infrastructure projects, innovations in size and form factors, the emergence of new applications, a shift towards sustainable solutions, and the demand for high-performance materials. Key trends expected in the forecast period include market expansion in emerging economies, innovations in material durability, a rising demand for electrical insulation, heightened concerns for sustainability and the environment, and a trend towards miniaturization in the electronics industry.
The heat-shrink tubes market is poised for growth due to the continuous increase in global power generation capacity. Power generation involves the creation of electricity through various technologies, such as steam boilers and wind turbines. Heat shrink tubing plays a crucial role in protecting power lines from physical damage, moisture, and environmental factors, preventing premature cable and wire failure. According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), the global renewable generation capacity reached 3,064 Gigawatts (GW) by the end of 2021, with a 9.1% increase. Solar and wind technologies accounted for 88% of all new renewable capacity in 2021. Additionally, the U.S. Energy Information Administration forecasts a global electricity demand increase of over 5% in 2021 and 4% in 2022. Therefore, the continuous rise in global power generation capacity is a key driver for the heat-shrink tubing market.
The heat-shrink tubing market is expected to experience growth due to the increasing demand in the electronics industry. The electronics industry encompasses a broad range of businesses involved in designing, manufacturing, distributing, and selling electronic devices, components, and systems. Heat-shrink systems provide versatile solutions for insulation, protection, organization, and repair within the electronics sector, enhancing the reliability, durability, and functionality of electronic devices and systems. For example, LG, a South Korea-based consumer electronics company, reported sales exceeding $60 billion in 2022, a 12.9% increase from 2021. The Home Appliance & Air Solution Company achieved revenue of $22.5 billion in 2022, up 10.3% from the previous year. Therefore, the increasing demand in the electronics industry is a significant driver for the heat-shrink tubing market.
Automation of heat shrink tubing is a prominent trend gaining popularity in the heat-shrink tubing market. Major companies are focused on innovating their products to strengthen their market position. For instance, CORTEC Corp introduced a new custom VpCI-126 Shrink Film designed for automated heat shrink and heat seal tunnels. This film provides corrosion protection for industrial equipment during shipping or storage. It forms a protective molecular layer on metal surfaces inside the packaging, preventing rusting. Automation of heat shrinking benefits various industries, including consumer items wrapped in fragile films.
Major companies in the heat-shrink tubing market are innovating new products such as Specialty Heat Shrink Tubing to enhance their market position and profitability. Specialty heat shrink tubing, such as WOER's model HSS63, features a tin ring for handling shielded wire terminals and splices. It offers connection protection, easy installation, resistance to abrasion and chemical corrosion, and transparency for visual inspection. Innovations in specialty heat shrink tubing cater to specific applications, providing unique characteristics tailored to specialized needs.
