Fire Protection Materials Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Fire protection material are those type of materials that aid to resist fire. These materials are primarily used to reduce the effects of destructive fires by lessening harmful effect which has caused to the body. These substances can be divided into passive and aggressive fire protection substances. Active fire protection materials need to be protected by movement and action in some way. For instance, firefighters utilise fire extinguishers, while these materials are used for passive fire protection and fitted in a building as fire resistant flooring, walls, and doors.

Fire Protection Materials Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Boosting growth of automotive sector:

Fire protection materials such as coatings are extensively used in automotive interiors such as dashboards and seats, whereas in electric vehicles these materials provide a protective layer to the batteries which protects or prevents them from getting heated up or catching fire. Moreover, as foam products, these materials are widely utilized in manufacturing facilities, where they are primarily employed to prevent fires from occurring during production. As a result of augmented demand for light commercial and passenger vehicles and the establishment of new electric vehicle facilities, the automotive industry has experienced remarkable growth. For instance, the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers estimates that, the production of light commercial vehicles will increase to 18.6 million units from the previous year's production of 57 million units in 2021.

• Rapidly increasing building and construction industry

As a result of the increasing construction industry, growing renovation of existing buildings or infrastructure and improving warehousing facilities are anticipated to drive the growth rate of the fire protection material market. Additionally, large spending on non-residential constructions, infrastructure, and rising urban housing projects have led to the rise in demand for the fire protection market during the forecast period.

Opportunities

• Increasing consumption of electronic products

Electronic products contain components such as circuit boards, transformers, semiconductors and batteries that are measured as potential ignition sources. The fire protection materials are highly used in the casting process of these components to inhibit small ignition from turnoff into higher fire scenarios. Smartphones have developed rapidly in the electrical and electronics sector because of the bolstering demand for electrical equipment and consumer electronics such as television and PCs. For instance, as per the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the manufacturing industry of electronics in India is expected to reach around US$520 billion by the year 2025. Moreover, as peer the statistics of World Semiconductor Trade, global semiconductor market sales around US$555.9 billion in 2021, accounting rise of approx., 26.2%. With such a surge in electronic sales and production of semiconductors, the demand for these materials for casting applications will also rise. This will create immense opportunities for the growth of the fire protection materials industry.

Restraints/ Challenges

• Negative health effects associated with fire protection materials:

Fire protection materials have high industrial applicability but due to negative health effects caused by their consumption could pose a biggest and foremost challenge in the market's growth. Inappropriate usage of plaster such as gypsum could lead to labours getting exposed to such products which would result occur serious health effects ranging from sneezing, coughing and skin & eyes irritation to upper respiratory and nosebleed problems. The adverse health effects of gypsum plaster could reduce the usage in certain industries such as building and construction, thus hamper the fire protection materials market growth during the forecast period.
