Elastomeric Foam Market Size

Elastomeric Foam Market size is poised to reach USD 7,396 Million by the end of 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7% during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-2033. In the year 2022, the industry size of elastomeric foam was USD 3,360 Million. The market is growing on the back of the growing use of elastomeric foam in the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) and plumbing industry. For instance, there is an estimated 151 million HVAC units to be sold in 2024. The elastomeric foam is used in the production of HAVC products as it can regulate heat and cold temperatures and prevent condensation on equipment. The insulation made from elastomeric foam helps protect building owners from the issue caused by corrosion under the insulation. This type of insulation also protects the mechanical systems and pipelines from water or water vapor.

Rising use in various sectors including hospitals and residential places owing to the rising need for health and safety with changing climate. A hospital is a place of mixed environment where various types of patients visit for treatment. Many of them may have infections that can be transmitted to an inpatient who is more prone to diseases with weak immunity. So, there is a need to prevent these types of contaminations from entering sterile environments such as intensive care units, operation theaters, and newborn care facilities. In such cases, the use of an HVAC system will prevent the spread of germs, promote proper air conditioning and ventilation, and provide heat to sterilize the protected area. Moreover, the use of HVAC reduces the energy consumption of hospitals, and it is anticipated to boost the growth of the market. It is estimated that replacing separate heating and cooling systems with HVAC systems can save 50% of the energy for electric heating and cooling systems and up to 10% for gas furnace heating systems.
