Aerospace Insulation Market Size, Share | Industry Trends - 2028

The aerospace insulation market is expected to grow from US$ 5,731.28 million in 2022 to US$ 7,633.23 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2022 to 2028.

Aerospace insulation refers to the material installed in the aircraft to improve safety and comfort levels. Functions of the aircraft in severe climatic conditions should adhere to certain fundamental operations as well as safety measures concerning both weight and temperature terms and overall performance. Due to advantages, such as lower vibration and noise levels during flying hours, the demand for insulating materials is growing at a rapid pace. The rising usage of composites in commercial aircraft is expected to push the development of diverse aerostructures, resulting in substantial industry potential. The increasing demand for lightweight insulating materials and composite materials in the commercial aircraft and business jet industries to reduce cabin noise is likely to drive the market over the next few years.

Aerospace insulation plays a crucial role in protecting crew and passengers from generator noise and freezing temperatures at higher elevations. The rising demand for lightweight fleet, new generation, and fuel-efficient aircraft with the increasing importance of reducing emissions is expected to increase aircraft production. The significant development of the travel industry in emerging markets and the increasing number of passengers for international and domestic travel are the major factors driving the global aerospace insulation market. For instance, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the total demand for air travel in April 2022 increased by 78.7% compared to April 2021.

Strategic Insights

According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), all commercial aircraft must have thermal and acoustic insulation. These insulators ensure that passengers' comfort is not affected by exterior temperature variations and that excessive noise the aircraft creates does not interfere with communication. Such stringent regulations encourage aircraft manufacturers to use insulation material in aircraft, boosting the aerospace insulation market.

Many aerospace insulation manufacturers such as Zotefoams are developing lightweight aerospace building materials to increase fuel efficiency and sustainability. Thermal and acoustic insulation protects against excessive noise and temperature in most aircraft. Thermal and acoustic insulation is a unique high-performance fiber enclosed in an aircraft-rated plastic covering that holds the insulating materials together while also functioning as a moisture barrier.
