The aircraft wire & cable market in SAM is expected to grow from US$ 73.15 million in 2020 to US$ 104.37 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2021 to 2028.



Brazil and Argentina are major economies in SAM. New innovations being done for aircraft related solutions is the major factor driving the SAM aircraft wire & cable market. Fiber optics has the capability to transmit data for longer distances while being lightweight and less disruptive than copper. Fiber optics cable can carry more electronic signals and is free from short circuit arcing. As it has a huge bandwidth capability, it can send numerous different signals in one optical fiber with a low level of cross talk. The immense use of fiber optic technology in the aerospace & defense sector can be attributed to the rising commercial adoption of fiber optic cables and growth in platforms such as unmanned systems and space launch vehicles. For improved data transfer rates, aircraft OEMs are demanding for more lightweight design; thus, they are upgrading for optical data transfer using fiber to enhance their aircraft the internal communication systems. It is highly crucial that OEMs must install fiber optics by certified professionals. For instance, ETA offers certifications to meet the aerospace demand for installation and maintenance of fiber optics.  The recent burgeoning commercial passengers have further boosted the demand for superior in-flight entertainment and luxury experience among the airline providers, which subsequently provide notable attractive business opportunities for the aircraft wires & cable market players and drive the market growth. Furthermore, the existing modification of conventional aircraft controls and display systems with fly-by-wire (FWB) systems and the popularity of glass cockpit-based solutions propel the market growth.

The ongoing COVID-19 is having a devastating impact on the SAM region. In the SAM, Brazil has the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases, followed by other countries such as Colombia, Argentina, and Peru. The governments of various countries in SAM are taking several initiatives to protect people and control COVID-19’s spread in the region through lockdowns, trade bans, and travel restrictions. Brazil is the largest spender in the aerospace sector and is the only modern aircraft manufacturing country in the region. Due to this, the demand for components and aircraft-related systems and technologies is at an all-time high in the country. In addition, most of the components are imported from the US, China, and European countries. The slowdown in commercial and military aircraft production in the country has impaired the supply chain in Brazil. This has weakened the demand for several components, including aircraft wire & cable. Thus, the outbreak of COVID-19 has had a harsh impact on the SAM aircraft wire & cable market, especially Brazil.   

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the SAM aircraft wire & cable market. The SAM aircraft wire & cable market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
