The widespread adoption of air conditioning in public vehicles is another factor boosting the OEM insulation industry.

Market Dynamic

THE GROWTH IN INFRASTRUCTURE INDUSTRY FUELS THE MARKET

Over the recent past, OEM insulation has been gaining awareness in the building & construction sector across the globe. The trend of constructing energy-efficient buildings has increased the demand for OEM insulation between 2022 and 2032. Building & Construction is expected to dominate the end-user market with a market share of more than 35.0% throughout the forecast period. The increasing need for energy-efficient goods and equipment, acoustic insulation in partitions, and technical advancement of HVAC equipment in the construction sector drive the demand for OEM insulation.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS HAMPER THE MARKET RISE

Polyurethane foams are the most commonly used materials in the construction industry. The use of these foams for insulation purposes releases harmful greenhouse gases and, therefore, slowly deteriorates our environment. We have all heard about this problem, and now it’s a fact that industries must take greater responsibility and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions through a more eco-friendly approach.

REPLACING CONVENTIONAL INSULATION WITH NEW FRF INSULATION  

FEF (Fluid Extruded Foam) insulation is technical insulation that saves energy during its service life compared to the total capacity needed to produce it. It provides a sustainable solution for reducing heat-related costs and water loss due to condensation, gas migration, and permeation problems. Building energy efficiency is achieved by reducing energy consumption, operating costs, and associated operating expenses for the building owner.

The most expensive component of the cost of a building is typically heating, cooling, and ventilation systems. Closed-cell elastomeric insulation provides a long-term solution for lowering these systems’ energy consumption while helping to save both natural resources and money.
