Executive Summary

The global elastomers market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9% from 2023 through 2028 to reach $153.5 billion. The Asia-Pacific market was valued at $46.3 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $77.6 billion by the end of 2028, growing at a CAGR of 9.0%. The growth in North America and Europe will be slower, i.e., these regions will grow at CAGRs of 6.6% and 5.4%, respectively, from 2023 through 2028, reaching $29.7 billion and $23.3 billion, respectively. The rate of growth is expected to pick up in the coming years. The Asia-Pacific region, especially China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and India, should grow relatively faster throughout the next five years.

The key global companies in the global elastomers market are trying to create partnerships, joint ventures, and collaborations with small and medium elastomer companies. For instance, in April 2023, DuPont entered into a collaboration with Qosina. Through this collaboration, Qosina gained access to DuPont’s Liveo Silicone Elastomer series, which is specifically used in the production of biopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, and medical devices. Likewise, in November 2023, Covestro AG strengthened its partnership with China’s Huafon. This partnership will help the company to increase its elastomer business in China.

Tires, hoses, gaskets, adhesives, tubes, belts, and coatings are among the applications for which the majority of elastomers are employed in the automobile sector. The performance of the automotive sector as a whole is closely correlated with the use of elastomers in that sector. Because of their belief in the potential growth of the automobile industry in developing countries like China, India, and Japan, automakers are dedicated to innovation.

This report’s objectives are to cover the industry globally in terms of market size and product diversity, as well as to detail the numerous industry players.

About the Elastomers Market

Elastomers are a type of rubber that are highly elastic and can be stretched to several times their original length. They are used in a variety of applications, such as automotive, medical, and industrial. Elastomers are typically composed of polymers, which are long chains of molecules that can be stretched and bent without breaking. They are also known for their ability to resist heat, cold, and chemicals. Elastomers are used in a variety of products, including tires, seals, gaskets, and hoses. They are also used in medical devices, such as catheters and prosthetics. Elastomers are also used in the production of adhesives, coatings, and insulation materials. Elastomers are an important part of the rubber industry, as they are used in a variety of products and applications. They are also used in the production of many everyday items, such as shoes, clothing, and furniture. Some companies in the elastomers market include Dow Chemical, ExxonMobil, BASF, and Lanxess. Other companies include Mitsui Chemicals, Nippon Zeon, and Sumitomo Chemical. Show Less Read more
