Segment Insights & Market Share Analysis of the Automotive Engineered Coated Fabric Market:
The global automotive engineered coated fabric market is segmented based on application type, substrate type, coating type, and region.
Based on application type –
- The automotive engineered coated fabric market is segmented into airbags, drive belts, hoses, brake shims, and other application types.
- Airbags remain the largest and fastest-growing application during the forecast period.
- Airbags demand fabrics capable of withstanding complicated conditions during a crash; for instance, the fabric must withstand sudden inflation pressure, heat buildup, and pressure and force exerted by the airbag during inflation.
- High-strength nylon, polyester, or specific polymer-coated fabrics are selected on their ability to be dimensionally stable under considerable heat and stress and to withstand considerable stretching and rubbing friction in airbags.
- In recent years, increasing safety standards, technological advancements, and the expanding global automotive market have led to the growth of other applications such as airbags and seat belts.
- Engineered-coated fabrics allow for the creation of hoses that can withstand high temperatures and chemical exposure, helping to improve vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control.
Based on substrate type –
- The market is segmented into polyester, fiberglass, aramid, polyamide, and other substrate types.
- Polyester is expected to remain the dominant substrate of the market during the forecast period.
- Polyester is dominating the market due to its affordability, strength, versatility, and ability to meet the performance demands of the automotive industry. Its tensile strength is around 410 to 550 MPa, which helps improve the durability of applications such as automotive seat belts and airbag fabrics.
- Polyester can tolerate wear and tear very well. Because of this property, it is used in high-traffic automotive applications such as seat covers.
- Polyamide-coated fabric is used to manufacture airbags, including knee airbags, because of its high durability and capability to withstand high pressure during deployment.
Based on coating type –
- The automotive engineered coated fabric market is segmented into urethane, rubber, silicone, and other coating types.
- Urethane is expected to remain the prevailing coating of the market during the forecast period.
- Urethane-coated fabrics are known for their abrasion resistance, making them suitable for high-performance applications where durability is critical, such as automotive interiors and seating.
- Urethane is more lightweight than others, which helps lightweight automotive components. This fulfills the industry’s growing focus on fuel efficiency and reduced emissions by lowering the overall weight of vehicles.
- Silicone and rubber are temperature-resistant, flexible, chemically stable, and durable. This increases their demand for automotive-engineered coated fabrics, making them the key elements in airbag applications.
