Middle East and Africa Fuel Tank Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

A fuel tank is a safe storage solution for hazardous and flammable liquids such as petrol, diesel, gasoline, and more. Some are highly transportable and portable, so they are designed to dispense and transport fuel to job sites when required. They can also store fuel in large quantities in suitable conditions for optimal performance and preservation. 

Middle East and Africa Fuel Tank Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing demand for fuel tanks to reduce contamination risk 

The growing demand for fuel tanks to reduce contamination risk will likely boost the market's growth during the forecast period. A fuel tank can help to lessen the risk of fuel contamination by controlling the handling and storage of fuel. An added benefit is that it gives the peace of mind of knowing that the customers have enough fuel and will not be easily contaminated. Asa a result of this, it boosts the market growth.

• Growing demand for fuel tanks due to their environment-friendly nature

The demand for fuel tanks increases due to their environment-friendly nature, which will likely propel the market growth. For instance, gasoline comprises harmful chemicals that pollute water and air, but with a fuel tank, the customer can easily reduce the emission of these toxic chemicals into the environment. Fuel storage in fuel tanks also decreases the carbon footprint. The result of these factors boosts market growth.

Opportunities

• Growth and expansion of the e-commerce sector

Increasing demand for commercial vehicles because of the growth of the e-commerce sector contributes to the growth of the fuel tank market during the forecast period. The construction and logistics sectors need increased infrastructure and transportation development which will result in the growth of the fuel tank market. Therefore, the growth and expansion of the e-commerce sector will likely create lucrative market growth opportunities.

• Rising focus of manufacturers to improve vehicle efficiency

Recent automobiles need advanced materials for fuel tank production to improve fuel economy while retaining performance and safety. Lightweight materials have lot of potential for enhancing vehicle efficiency because they need minimum energy to accelerate a lighter product than a heavy one. As a result of all these factors, manufacturers in the fuel tank market are highly focusing on using lightweight materials to improve vehicle efficiency, which will likely create lucrative opportunities for market growth.

Restraints/ Challenges

• High cost associated with composite fuel tanks

The high cost of composite fuel tanks, such as carbon fiber composite-based fuel tanks, will likely hamper the market's growth. Carbon fiber composite-based fuel tanks are relatively more expensive than other fuel tanks because of the cost of carbon fiber, which accounts for about 40 percent of the overall tank cost.

• Growing usage of an advanced technological system

The growing penetration of electric vehicles day-by-day in the market is a major factor restraining the fuel tank market growth. The sales of electric vehicles are also likely to increase in upcoming years because of the growing demand for zero-emission vehicles. As a result, this reduces the demand for the fuel tank factor and hampers the growth of the fuel tank market in the forecast period.
