OEM insulation refers to insulation products produced by original equipment manufacturers, designed to mitigate heat transfer between surfaces at different temperatures. An efficiently planned and installed insulation system promptly reduces energy consumption, resulting in significant cost savings.
The primary classifications of OEM insulation include blankets, rolls, batts, loose fill, and other types. Blankets, typically large oblong pieces of woven fabric, serve as bed coverings and are made from materials like mineral wool, polyurethane foam (PUF), flexible elastomeric foam (FEF), among others. These insulation types find application across diverse sectors such as aerospace, automotive, marine, HVAC equipment, building and construction, consumer appliances, and various other industries.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are impacting the OEM insulation market by increasing costs of imported mineral wool, polymer foams, fiberglass materials, and specialized manufacturing equipment. Automotive, aerospace, and HVAC equipment manufacturers in North America and Europe are most affected due to dependence on global insulation supply chains, while Asia-Pacific faces cost pressures in export-driven insulation production. These tariffs are raising component costs and affecting OEM margins. However, they are also supporting local insulation manufacturing, regional material sourcing, and development of alternative insulation technologies.
The oem insulation market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides oem insulation market statistics, including oem insulation industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a oem insulation market share, detailed oem insulation market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the oem insulation industry. This oem insulation market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The oem insulation market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $22.79 billion in 2025 to $24.29 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of hvac equipment manufacturing, increased insulation use in transportation systems, expansion of building construction activities, rising awareness of energy conservation, availability of mineral wool and foam materials.
The oem insulation market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $30.65 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing tightening of energy efficiency regulations, rising adoption of electric vehicles, expansion of sustainable building practices, growing investments in advanced insulation materials, increasing demand for noise reduction solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of energy-efficient insulation materials, rising demand for lightweight thermal insulation, growing use of advanced foam technologies, expansion of oem-specific insulation solutions, enhanced focus on thermal and acoustic performance.
Rising government initiatives and funding for infrastructure are expected to propel the growth of the OEM insulation market going forward. Government initiatives refer to specific actions, programs, policies, or projects undertaken by a government at the local, regional, or national level to address particular issues, achieve specific goals, or promote desired outcomes. Government initiatives for infrastructure development can significantly benefit the OEM insulation market by promoting growth, innovation, quality, and sustainability while providing a steady and reliable source of demand. For example, in October 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of State and Community Energy Program awarded $30 million in clean energy funding to improve energy efficiency and advance clean energy and infrastructure upgrades in public and private spaces. This funding is expected to be used for energy efficiency upgrades in buildings. Therefore, rising government initiatives and funding for infrastructure are driving the growth of the OEM insulation market during the forecast period.
Major companies operating in the OEM insulation market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as low-carbon footprint insulation systems, to meet the rising demand for energy-efficient, sustainable building materials that reduce carbon emissions and enhance indoor comfort. These technologies offer superior thermal performance compared to traditional insulation materials while leveraging renewable and eco-friendly resources. For instance, in March 2023, Energystore, a UK-based manufacturer of insulation products, launched the EnergyStore+ range, featuring advanced low-carbon insulation solutions made with BASF's Neopor BMB. The product line includes Superbead+, an injected EPS foam bead system for cavity walls, and TLA+, a pourable insulation solution combining EPS foam beads with cement for floors and roofs. Both products utilize renewable resources in their production, significantly reducing carbon emissions compared to conventional Neopor materials. EnergyStore+ aims to provide high-quality insulation while improving energy efficiency, lowering energy costs, and enhancing occupant comfort.
In February 2024, Saint-Gobain, a France-based provider of construction and building-envelope materials, acquired International Cellulose Corporation (ICC) for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Saint-Gobain sought to strengthen its market position by integrating ICC's spray-on thermal, fireproofing, and acoustic insulation products into its existing insulation and building-envelope solutions. International Cellulose Corporation is a U.S.-based manufacturer of specialty insulation products, including spray-applied thermal and acoustical systems leveraging natural, plant-based fibers and recycled content.
