As per an Extensive Research Report by Market Research Future (MRFR), Flexible Insulation Market Information by Material, by Type, and Region - Forecast till 2032” Flexible Insulation Market Size was valued at USD 8.9 billion in 2022. The flexible insulation industry is projected to grow from USD 9.38 Billion in 2023 to USD 14.4 billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% during the forecast period (2023 - 2032).

Market Synopsis

Special elastomeric polymers with resistance to temperature, sound, or electricity are used in flexible insulation. To maintain the optimum conditions, insulating materials are needed in a variety of situations. Maintaining the right temperature can be essential to ensuring suitable living conditions in locations with harsh winters or intense summers. People use heaters or campfires to get through the hard winters in many of the places close to the earth's poles.

Thermal insulation is essential if you want heaters and bonfires to operate as efficiently as possible. Thermal insulation keeps interior heat from escaping and keeps outside cold from getting inside. Electrical and acoustic insulation function similarly. Acoustic insulation keeps internal audio from leaking out and lets no outside noise in, giving the audience a wonderful experience. Electric insulation stops the current from leaking, shielding living things from potentially fatally high voltage.

Market USP Covered:

Market Drivers:

Construction activity followed by urbanisation in Europe and Asia Pacific, industrial growth in developing nations, and technical advancements that offer cutting-edge insulating materials are the main driving reasons for the global flexible insulation market. There is a huge demand for residential infrastructure to sustain the rising population due to the growing population around the world. The population's expanding disposable income is a factor in the rising demand for residential development.

To increase the quality and safety of construction projects, modern residential construction practices advocate the use of insulating materials. This is especially true for electric insulation product, which frequently contributes to accidental fires that have claimed many lives around the world. Electric insulation is needed by law in many nations in order to prevent these unintentional fires, which has boosted the market for flexible insulation.

The material segment's highest market share belongs to fibreglass insulation. Since fibreglass insulation is lightweight, non-combustible has a high tear strength and resists corrosion, its use is expected to increase across a variety of applications, bolstering the market's anticipated strong expansion.

Fibreglass is used in many different applications, including flexible air ducts, household and commercial refrigerators and freezers, jet-engine ducting, aviation parts, and commercial buildings. It is also used as thermal insulation for HVAC industry piping.

Fibreglass insulation also offers greater design flexibility. To improve a building's overall thermal performance and make up for spaces with lower thermal ceramics values, like windows and doors, larger amounts can be put in select locations. It allows for a wide range of R-Values, allowing the specifier more alternatives for satisfying the criteria of the national and provincial energy codes.

Market Restraints:

The development of the flexible insulation industry may be hampered by the advent of sophisticated bio-based materials for insulating purposes.  However, the numerous uses for flexible insulation across a variety of sectors, including construction, consumer goods, and others, will benefit the flexible insulation market globally.

COVID-19 Impact

The global market for flexible insulation has been negatively impacted by the novel coronavirus outbreak that has spread around the world.

Most of the flexible insulation is used in the construction sector to line the interiors of walls and roofs. However, one of the sectors of the economy that is currently seeing the greatest pandemic impact is the construction sector. As a result, there is now much less demand for flexible insulating materials, which has an impact on the market.

One of the countries with a considerable impact on the market for flexible insulation is China. However, the nation's total closure to contain the virus brought an end to the manufacturing sector. This has had a significant impact on the market for flexible insulation globally.

Market Segmentation

By Type

Major types of flexible insulation are acoustic, electrical, and thermal insulation.

By Material

Flexible insulation materials are aerogel, cross-linked polyethylene, elastomer, fiberglass, and others.

Regional Insights

In 2022, the market for flexible insulation in North America was valued at $4.08 billion. Due to the rising demand for energy-efficient buildings, strict government energy-efficiency standards, and increased construction activity, it is expected to rise at a substantial CAGR during the study period. Flexible insulation materials have exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation properties, which makes them highly sought-after in the local residential and commercial sectors.
