(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 17, 2022 ) The report "Flexible Elastomeric Foam Market by Type (Natural Rubber, NBR/PVC, EPDM, CR), Function (Thermal, Acoustic), End-use Industry (HVAC, Automotive & Transportation), and Region (North America, Europe, APAC, MEA, South America) - Global Forecast to 2023" The market size of flexible elastomeric foam is projected to grow from USD 2.2 billion in 2018 to USD 2.7 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 4.72%during the forecast period. The market is driven by a wide range of function types, namely, thermal and acoustic insulation service providers for different applications such as air-conditioning, industrial piping, solar piping, and construction walls and automotive. In addition, the increasing number of residential and non-residential constructions globally is also expected to drive the use of flexible elastomeric foam in the thermal and acoustic insulation type.

NBR/PVC is the largest and fastest-growing type segment of the flexible elastomeric foam market

The flexible elastomeric foam market has been segmented on the basis of type into natural rubber/latex and synthetic rubber. Synthetic rubber is further classified into NBR/PVC, EPDM, CR, and others. In 2018, the NBR/PVC type accounted for the largest market share, in terms of volume, due to the demand for NBR/PVC flexible elastomeric foam in the HVAC and automotive & transportation end-use industry. NBR/PVC is a closed cell material used for reducing thermal losses in HVAC systems such as chilled water installations, refrigeration, and air-conditioning. So, it is among the fastest-growing type of flexible elastomeric foam.
