The Role of Adhesives in Ensuring Safety and Comfort in Aerospace Interiors| MarketsandMarkets™

Posted by Jack Martin on April 20th, 2023

Aerospace interior adhesives are adhesive materials used in aircraft interior assembly and decoration. These adhesives are commonly used to attach panels, trim, carpets, and other interior components. They are frequently chosen because of their ability to form strong bonds that can withstand high temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. They are also frequently chosen because of their low levels of outgassing, which aids in passenger safety. Aerospace interior adhesives are in high demand as the manufacturing and assembly of aircraft interiors become more intricate and complex. Aerospace interior adhesives must meet stringent specifications for strength, durability, and environmental resistance. As a result, they must be of the highest quality and must be able to withstand extreme temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. The global aerospace interior adhesives market was projected to reach USD 1,101.7 Million by 2021, at a CAGR of 5.35% between 2016 and 2021.

The medium wide body is expected to lead the market by 2021

By 2021, the medium-wide body aircraft segment is expected to dominate the aerospace interior adhesives market. This is primarily due to increased production of medium-wide body aircraft like the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. Many adhesives and sealants are required for the interior components of these aircraft, such as overhead bins, seat trays, and seating configurations. Furthermore, rising demand for lightweight aircraft is expected to fuel demand for aerospace interior adhesives in the medium-wide body segment. Furthermore, the growing emphasis on the development of improved and advanced adhesives and sealants is expected to contribute to market growth.

Panels: the largest product type segment of the aerospace interior adhesives market

Adhesive films and tapes are the most popular product type in the aerospace interior adhesives market. In aircraft interior applications, adhesive films and tapes are used to bond various components such as panels, headliners, and carpeting. These adhesive films and tapes have good flexibility and are resistant to extreme temperatures and other environmental conditions. They're also used to bond and seal various components like doors, windows, and interior panels. Water-based, solvent-based, and pressure-sensitive adhesives are among the many types of adhesive films and tapes available. They adhere well to a wide range of substrates, including metals, composites, and plastics.

North America: the largest market for aerospace interior adhesives

North America accounts for more than a quarter of the global market for aerospace interior adhesives. The region's expansion is being driven by rising demand from the commercial and military aircraft sectors, as well as an increase in the number of air passengers. The United States leads the North American aerospace interior adhesives market, followed by Canada and Mexico. The region's growth is primarily attributed to rising aircraft demand, increased aircraft production, and an increase in the number of air passengers. Because of the increasing number of aircraft orders, the US aerospace interior adhesives market is expected to grow the most during the forecast period. Additionally, the demand for lightweight materials in aerospace applications is driving the growth of aerospace interior adhesives in the region.

The key players operational in the aerospace interior adhesive market include Henkel AG & Co.KGaA (Germany), Huntsman Corporation (U.S), Avery Dennison (U.S.), Arkema S.A. (France), Solvay S.A. (Belgium), Hexcel Corporation (U.S.), 3M Company (U.S.), Delo Industrial Adhesives (Germany), Master Bond Inc.(U.S.), and Permabond LLC (U.K.) and others
