The global automotive noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) materials market reached a value of D 16.11 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.40% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach nearly USD 27.26 Billion by 2034.
The Asia Pacific to be a Significant Regional Market for Automotive Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH) Materials
The Asia Pacific accounts for a considerable share of the global market for automotive noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) materials. This can be attributed to the expansion of manufacturing capacity and the rapid growth of the automobile industry in the region. In the Asia Pacific, China is one of the largest consumers of automotive NVH materials, which is significantly contributing to the growth of the market.
The rising population and the rising living standards are directly impacting the growth of the automobile sector positively, which is surging the utilisation of automotive NVH materials. Also, the easy availability of raw materials and low-cost labour are driving the region's automotive NVH materials market. The demand for automotive NVH materials in the Asia Pacific region is further expected to grow at the fastest rate, with the recent expansion activities by key players. With the rising demand for commercial vehicles and passenger cars owing to the increasing purchase power of consumers in the region, the market is expected to witness robust growth in the forecast period.
The global market is being driven by rising demand for automotive NVH materials from the automotive industry due to stringent government mandates for quieter and safer cars. As lower NVH levels influence car-buying decisions, passenger vehicle manufacturers are extensively utilising automotive NVH materials. In addition, the growing demand for aftermarket services, including replacement parts, repairs and maintenance, accessorising, and customisation, is boosting the utilisation of auto parts and accessorising for soundproofing, which is expected to aid the market in the coming years.
As the use of commercial vehicles for logistics and transportation applications is increasing, the requirement for acoustic management and noise reduction in heavy vehicles is witnessing a surge. Rubbers offer excellent physical properties of high density, high heat, weather resistance, and vibration, absorbing properties, which make them an ideal NVH material. This, in turn, is anticipated to fuel the market growth. With the increasing focus of automotive manufacturers on acoustic management and noise reduction in passenger and commercial vehicles to improve fuel economy, reduce cabin noise, and increase durability, the demand for NVH materials is also predicted to grow. Moreover, the growing interest in automotive NVH materials in battery-powered light vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the market in the forecast period.
