Segment Insights on the Automotive Ducts Market:

The global automotive ducts market is segmented based on vehicle type, application type, manufacturing process type, material type, pressure type, and region.

Based on end-use industry type - The automotive ducts market is segmented into LV and M&HCV. LV is expected to remain the demand generator of the market, during the forecast period. LV (light vehicle) includes passenger cars and LCV (light commercial vehicles). Increasing motorization rate and reasonably higher production of passenger cars and LCVs are the key factors behind its dominance. Other factors include rising demand for cabin comfort and air quality, stringent regulation requirements for fuel efficiency and emissions, and advancements in technology for duct materials.

Based on application type - The market is segmented into; HVAC ducts, under-the-hood ducts, and others. HVAC duct is likely to hold the dominant position of the market during the forecast period. HVAC ducts are largely made with plastics (polypropylene or polyethylene plastics). The instrument panel duct is the biggest application of ducts in an automobile, which is located in the HVAC area. Other major HVAC ducts generating a noticeable demand are roof ducts, console ducts, and pillar ducts.

Based on manufacturing process type - The market is segmented into blow molding, injection molding, thermoforming, and others. Blow molding is expected to remain the most dominant manufacturing process during the forecast period. Blow molding is the most economical process for producing plastic ducts. Also, the equipment cost is lower, and the manufacturing cost per duct is lower than that of ducts manufactured through the other processes (thermoforming and rotational molding).

Based on material type - The market is segmented into plastic ducts, foam ducts, and others. Plastic duct is likely to be the most preferred material of the market during the forecast period. Key plastics used to make ducts with or without reinforcements are polyamide (PA), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). Foam ducts are likely to remain the second-largest segment by 2030. The demand for plastic ducts is growing due to their weight reduction, cost-effective production, flexibility in design, resistance to corrosion, and thermal and acoustic insulation.

Based on pressure type - The market is segmented into low-pressure ducts and high-pressure ducts. Low-pressure ducts are likely to hold the dominant position in the market during the forecast period. Low-pressure ducts include HVAC ducts, such as instrumental panel ducts, console ducts, roof ducts, and pillar ducts; and some under-the-hood ducts, such as clean air ducts and dirty air ducts; and ducts covered under the others segment, such as radio cooling duct and brake ducts. High-pressure ducts are mostly used in under-the-hood application areas.

Which Region Shows the Most Promising Growth Forecast and Opportunity?

The analysis suggests that Asia-Pacific is estimated to maintain its unassailable lead in the global market with China being the engine’s propellerThis growth outlook is majorly attributed to the following–

  • The regional dominance is due to the high production of passenger cars and LCVs to meet the rising indigenous demand and increasing vehicle exports.
  • The region is the largest SUV producer with China being the leading country, which further elevates the demand for HVAC ducts in the region.

Likewise, Europe and North America are also projected to generate sizeable demand for automotive ducts during the forecast period. Germany, France, and Russia are known for their advanced technologies in the automotive industry.
