The global market for industrial rubber products is projected to increase 5.8
percent per year to $139.8 billion in 2016, accelerating from the growth rate
during the 2006-2011 period. Demand gains will be fueled by growth in key
original equipment manufacturing (OEM) markets, particularly motor vehicles.
In addition, the worldwide motor vehicle park will grow at a faster pace as
income levels rise, supporting aftermarket demand for industrial rubber
products.
Industrial equipment to remain largest segment
The motor vehicle market is forecast to post the strongest gains through 2016,
reflecting a turnaround in light vehicle production, bolstering OEM sales of
industrial rubber products. However, the industrial equipment market, which
includes industrial machinery and equipment as well as off-road vehicles, is
expected to remain the largest segment of the industrial rubber product market
through 2016. Growth in this segment will be supported by increasing
industrial manufacturing activity, as well as by rising demand for heavy
industrial equipment such as construction and mining machinery.
Mechanical rubber goods -- which include such products as body seals,
vibration control devices and wiper blades -- are expected to remain by far
the largest product segment through 2016. Because these products are employed
heavily in motor vehicles, segment growth will be largely attributable to an
acceleration in global automotive output. However, rubber belts and hoses will
see the fastest gains of any product segment during that span, bolstered by a
better outlook for pricing relative to mechanical goods.
Asia/Pacific to solidify its status as dominant region
The Asia/Pacific region, which represented 44 percent of the global market for
industrial rubber products in 2011, is forecast to post the fastest gains of
any region through 2016. Gains in regional demand will be fueled by ongoing
industrialization efforts and rising personal income levels, which will
support manufacturing output in a range of industries, from construction
machinery to household appliances.
India is expected to register the strongest growth of any country worldwide
through 2016, outpacing even China. However, China will have the most growth
in absolute terms, accounting for 42 percent of all additional sales generated
through 2016. Several lower-volume markets, such as Indonesia and Malaysia,
are forecast to register healthy gains as a result of increased manufacturing
activity. Advances in Central and South America and the Africa/Mideast region
are expected to outpace the global average, though those regions will continue
to represent a modest share of the global market.
The US industrial rubber product market, second largest in the world behind
China, will experience a rebound in demand due to an improved manufacturing
climate. Western Europe and Japan will see modest increases, in large part
because those markets have already reached a mature level. Nevertheless,
because of the advanced industrial and technological nature of their
economies, intensity of product use in those areas will remain among the
highest in the world.

Press Release
Industrial Rubber Products Register Health Gains to Reach $140 Billion in 2016
May 31st, 2012
Global Information Inc. would like to present a new market research report, "World Industrial Rubber Products to 2016" by The Freedonia Group.
The global market for industrial rubber products is projected to increase 5.8 percent per year to $140 billion in 2016. Demand gains will be fueled by growth in key original equipment manufacturing (OEM) markets, particularly motor vehicles. In addition, the worldwide motor vehicle park will grow at a faster pace based on the emerging strength of developing markets, supporting aftermarket demand. The motor vehicle market is forecast to post the fastest gains through 2016, reflecting an acceleration in light vehicle production, which will bolster OEM sales of industrial rubber products. Mechanical rubber goods -- which include such products as body seals, vibration control devices, and wiper blades -- are expected to remain by far the largest product segment through 2016.
The Asia/Pacific region, which represented 44 percent of the global market for industrial rubber products in 2011, is forecast to post the fastest growth of any region through 2016. Gains in regional demand will be fueled by ongoing industrialization efforts and rising personal income levels, which will support manufacturing output in a range of industries, from construction machinery to household appliances to motor vehicles.
China will remain the largest national market for industrial rubber products, accounting for 27 percent of total global demand in 2016. However, India is expected to register the fastest growth of any country worldwide, outpacing even China. Several lower volume markets, such as Indonesia and Malaysia, are also forecast to register healthy gains as a result of increased manufacturing activity. Advances in Central and South America and the Africa/Mideast region are expected to outpace the global average, though those regions will continue to represent a modest share of the global market.
Demand for industrial rubber products in the US, the second largest national market in the world behind China, will experience an acceleration in growth due to an improved manufacturing climate. Western Europe and Japan will see modest increases, in large part because those markets have already matured. Nevertheless, because of the advanced industrial and technological nature of their economies, intensity of product use in these areas will remain among the highest in the world.
