The general polymer made up of liquid, gas and solid mixed together to form a foam is an automotive foam. The process of making the automotive foams is by combining the two phases to get a quick response for the system in a smooth fashion. The subsequent foam is combined with the air bubbles or air tunnels, also known as closed-cell structures or open-cell structures. The production of automotive foam contains chemical gas or physical gas, which are considered blowing agents. These agents help to decompose chemicals in the foaming process and are thus dormant. Polymer foams can be produced through various methods, including slab-stock, extrusion by steam and different types of molding. Polyurethane, biodegradable foams, starch foams are various types of foam used for making automotive foam. Automotive foam offers sound control and cushioning around door panels, instrument panels, windshields, and headliners. It is used as seals, pads, gaskets, closure strips, and pillar stuffers.
The global automotive foam market is severely impacted by the outbreak of the noble virus covid-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, the automotive foam market saw a decline in economic growth in almost all the major regions, thus affecting consumer spending patterns. Due to the lockdown implemented across various countries, national and international transport has been disrupted, which has crucially impacted the supply chain of several industries all over the globe, therefore increasing the supply-demand gap. This insufficiency in raw material supply is predicted to obstruct the production rate of automotive foam, which gave a negative impact on the automotive foam market growth. Anyways this situation is expected to improve as the government has started relaxing rules around the world for resuming business activities. The unavailability of labor and the sudden shutdown of industries are some major crises that the market faced during this pandemic.
Key Market Drivers Global automotive foam market share is fully dependent on the growing economies and developing countries such as India and China. The growing wealthy middle-class population who expect innovative seating technology and a high-quality product are predicted to speartip the future growth expectation of the market. The rate of a growing population in urban cities is one of the main key factors which are operating the automotive foam market. Foams are lightweight, flexible and capable of performing to exceptional levels in even the most demanding conditions. This factor builds up the demand for automotive foams. However, the increase in the adoption of passenger cars is expected to fuel up the sale of passenger car foam market. The factors such as ease of availability, continuous improvement and attractive looks are regarded to attract more customers. The market is having various enhancements, such as major manufacturers are focusing on the size, weight and flexibility of automotive seats, which can be easily detachable and easily attachable. This factor is visualized to strengthen the growth of theautomotive foam market. Market Challenges The main challenges involved in the global automotive foam market include waste disposal, recyclability, flammability and others. The adverse effects of the blowing agent on the environment are another biggest challenge that hampers the automotive foam market value and its growth. The strict regulations implemented by the government on the adverse effect of the chloro-fluoro-carbon is involved in the production of polymer foams is another biggest challenge of all. Market OpportunitiesThe weight reduction features and cost-effectiveness of automotive foam are is expected to fuel the demand of the automotive foam market. The growth of the automotive industry across the world can be a great opportunity as it will contribute more to the economy. The fluctuating raw material prices can be an opportunity for the market because it is never consistent; therefore, according to the demand, the automotive foam market will get profitable growth. Market Restraints The high cost related to advanced automotive foam is expected to hinder the growth of the automotive foam market with automotive foam. Polyurethane foam can be more expensive than some of the cheaper alternatives in the market area. The chemical materials used in polyurethane can be harmful to those who have respiratory problems because it reduces airflow and can cause breathing problems. These factors are restraining the growth of the market.
