The Global Rubber Coated Fabrics Market is segmented based on type, application, industry vertical and Region.
Based on the type, the global Rubber Coated Fabrics market is segmented into natural and synthetic. The synthetic segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The durability and lifetime of synthetic rubber are superior in comparison to natural rubber. These characteristics mostly result from the material's resistance to deterioration and damage caused by chemicals, extreme heat or cold, ozone, sunlight, and weathering. Superior flexibility at low temperatures and usefulness as an electrical insulator are some further crucial characteristics. Additionally, it is significantly simpler and less expensive to create in many versions, which makes it the perfect choice for usage in applications with incredibly particular or one-of-a-kind needs. To improve or add certain material characteristics, such as flame resistance, custom formulations can be made. Thereby, propelling the market expansion.
Based on the industry vertical, the global industry is segmented into building and construction, transportation, aerospace, marine, military & defense, industrial and others. The transportation segment is expected to capture a significant market share over the forecast period. The growth in the segment is attributed to the growing demand for rubber from automobiles, aerospace, marine and others. Rubber coated fabrics are suitable for a variety of automotive end-uses, including rafts, kayaks, airbags, seat belts, truck tarpaulins and coverings, boat seats, boat tops, and interior and exterior applications. To prevent smoke or any other dangerous gas from entering the cabin, airplanes utilize smoke seals composed of rubber-coated textiles. For qualities like fire resistance, rubber coated textiles are widely utilized in cable covers and sleeves. Therefore, the wide application of rubber coated fabrics in transportation drives the market growth.
Geographically, this market is widespread in the regions of North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. These regions are further divided as per the nations bringing business. The Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market over the forecast period.
