This automotive heat shield market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry. The global automotive heat shield market size grew from $13.36 billion in 2022 to $14.49 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The automotive heat shield market size is expected to grow to $19.34 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.5%. The growing focus on heat shields made of lightweight material is contributing to the growth of the automotive heat shield market. This type of heat shield decreases the weight of the car and also improves its efficiency. A lightweight heat shield provides thermal protection and increases the overall performance of the car as compared to heavy material. According to the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewables Energy, a 10% reduction in vehicle weight can save up to 6-8% of fuel. The usage of lightweight components and efficient engines in one-quarter of the US fleet can save up to 5 billion gallons of fuel annually by 2030. Moreover, lightweight heat shields insulated with melamine foam can withstand up to 1000 °F. Another type of heat shield made with a thin layer of hydrophobic melamine foam for spot heat fix is temperature rated to 800 °F, the two heat shields are 98% reflective. The lightweight heat shield offering fuel efficiency and thermal protection is increasing focus on lightweight heatshield, which in turn driving the market for the automotive heat shield. Soundproof heat shields are increasingly being used to meet some of the government rules for noise reduction. For instance, Autoneum, a Swiss-based leading manufacturer in thermal insulation of vehicles and vehicle acoustics has come up with acoustic heat shields built from Autoneum’s RIMIC technology which reduces noise emission of the vehicle. It changes over the airborne sound into thermal energy and absorbs it. The heat shield can absorb high-frequency sounds ranging from 2-6 kHz. Several car manufacturers including BMW, Mercedes Benz, and Volvo among others are using these types of heat shields. In November 2020, Talbros Automotive Components Ltd., an India-based company that manufactures automotive & industrial gaskets signed a technical assistance agreement (TAA) with Sanwa Packing Industry Co. Ltd. for lightweight aluminium heat shields. The Nimbus product of the lightweight aluminium heat shield by Sanwa is the world's first aluminium light-weight heatshield for exhaust systems. This product will be a strong support to OEMs in building BS-VI products. Sanwa Packing Industry Co. Ltd. is a Japan-based company that manufactures gaskets, packing, and sealing devices.

Automotive gaskets and seals refer to components that are utilized between rotating engine parts, pumps, and shafts and are employed as static seals whenever a union or flange is needed to prevent leakage, as opposed to gaskets, which seal connections between two components or flanges with flat surfaces. Gaskets are usually used as static seals to seal a connection between two components that have flat surfaces, whereas seals are used between engine parts that rotate. Both gaskets and seals offer high flexibility, reliability, strength, and resistance to extreme heat. They can also sustain extreme pressures, compressive loads, and temperature variations. The main types of automotive gaskets and seals by material include fiber, graphite, PTFE, rubber, and silicone. Fiber gaskets and seals are mainly used in the chemical and petroleum product manufacturing industries. PTFE has a gasket material that has strong chemical resistance properties. Rubber seals are widely used to prevent leakage of air, chemicals, gases, or liquids. Silicone gaskets have excellent resistance to aging, chemicals, fire, fungal growth, heat, water, and ozone. Major end-users of gaskets and seals include the automotive, aerospace, machinery, electronics and electrical, and marine and rail industries.
