Market Dynamics
Driver: Industry moving towards lightweight sealants
Then and now, in the automotive industry (Passenger and Commercial vehicle Industry), one of the major challenges that have always been, is improvising the fuel efficiency. To achieve it, manufacturers not only focus on engine efficiency but also the structural design of the vehicle and the parts in it. To meet the specific demand from OEMs, the sealing system manufacturers are benchmarking the present technology and the material used to make the new sealing systems, which is aimed to be lighter in weight, highly reliable, safe, and will possess lower production costs than conventional sealants.
Restraint: Alternative to sealant – Laser technology
The technological development happens in all sectors, where the new benchmark is done to replace the older one. In the sealant industry, also the innovation continuously happens, where older is replaced by new technology. The laser welding technology is a silent growing alternative for roof ditch molding, which gives best in class finishing, prevents dust, air, and water from entering the interior parts of the vehicle. The BMW Group and Volkswagen Group use its developed roof laser welding technology to deliver premium finish look to its customers by eliminating the conventional roof ditch molding seals. This technology may lead to roof ditch molding to the sluggish market in the future.
Opportunity: Emerging electrical vehicle market globally
The alternative fuel technology such as electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles are expected to play a major role in the future as they possess low emissions while being efficient in terms of power and mileage. Also, in some of the developed countries such as Germany, the U.K., Japan, and the U.S., the government norms towards vehicular emissions are stringent which is encouraging OEMs to develop and market EVs. Furthermore, the automotive industry across the globe is subjected to undergo upgraded emission norms by the governing bodies to reduce the NOx level, but practically zero-emission is not possible with conventional fuel engines. The next stage of zero-emission can be achieved by promoting the sales of electric vehicles that are emerging across the globe with significant growth rates. This increase in EV sales is an open opportunity for automotive sealing system manufacturers.
Challenge: Managing cost of parts
Managing the costs of parts have always been a great challenge for OEMs from recent decades. The automotive industry is more into reducing the cost of raw materials, which will help them to reduce the end-product cost. The management of raw material cost is a huge advantage for manufacturers to face their competitors and also to attract more customers. The manufacturers strategically summons its manufacturing unit to the specific countries for the production, where the raw materials are at competitive pricing. The industry also foresees other strategic ways to reduce the raw material cost from the supplier's end and is also working on lightweight material cost management, which is the upcoming trend, where all manufacturers focus on lightweight materials. It results in performance and fuel economy.
