New York
City, 01 February 2019: The global Constrained Layer Damping (CLD) Market is anticipated to reach
USD 1,160 billion by 2026 according to a new study published by Polaris Market
Research.
Global constrained layer damping market
is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period from 2018 to 2026
owing to numerous advancements that is driven by a strong growth in various
application industries such as automotive, aerospace, defense and construction.
Their ability to subdue noise and vibrations generating between the connection
of metal or plastic parts is expected to boost the market for constrained layer
damping during the forecast period from 2018 – 2026. Constrained layer damping
are forms of shear-related energy dissipation systems accomplished by
interlocking two or more physical materials using a relatively thin viscoelastic
layer. Some of the benefits of using constrained layer dampening systems for
dealing with damping of noise and vibrations are the capability to attain high
loss factors with comparatively thin configurations and that the rigidity of
the composite system is not evidently increased. The systematic technological
development of constrained layer damping is expected to be witnessed throughout
the forecast period from 2018 – 2026.
The market for constrained layer
damping is segmented on the basis of type into active and passive constrained
layer damping. Passive constrained layer damping (PCLD) is a recognized
technique to add damping to a system. PCLD is a facade damping treatment that
consists of more than one viscoelastic layer and one or more non-actuated
coerced layer. These PCLD systems are installed to the base layer, the layer
that presents the unwanted resonance or vibration. However passive constrained
layer damping systems has been replaced by active constrained layer damping
(ACLD). This technology can be described as a failsafe, smart and efficient
noise and vibration attenuation technology over a large frequency band. The
market is also further segmented by viscoelastic material which includes butyl,
vinyl, polyurethane and others. On the other hand, the constrained layer
damping is additionally segmented into product type into aluminum, steel,
non-metallic and others. The steel product type is expected to account for a
lion share in the market owing to its application various industries. Steel
along with composites have a superior damping capability to reduce
structure-borne noise. Furthermore, on the basis of end-use industry the
constrained layer damping market into automotive, aerospace, marine,
electronics, construction and others. According to Polaris Market Research
analysis, automotive end-use industry is expected to dominate the constrained
layer damping market.
The future prospect of
constrained layer damping looks promising due to the factors such as rising
vehicle production coupled with advancing technologies for attaining NVH levels
in the automotive industry is expected to drive the market over the forecast
period. Additionally, trends in the construction industry to isolate noise and
vibrations from structure is expected to fuel the market.
Competitive
Landscape and Key Vendors:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional
market in 2017 and it is expected to retain its position during the forecast
period. The region is anticipated to account for the maximum share of the
overall worldwide market in terms of constrained layer damping systems. China
being the largest production hub of automotive vehicle around the world is the
major reason for the region’s stellar performance as the automotive industry
holds the prime market share in the constrained layer damping market.
Additionally, countries such as Japan, South Korea and India is further adding
up to the growth of the total market.
Some of leading industry participants
include Trelleborg AB, Nitto Denko Corporation, Pyrotek Inc., Sika AG, American
Acoustical Products, Megasorber Pty Ltd, Vibratec, Autoneum, Henkel Ltd.,
Flexcon Company, Inc, Rousch, Avery Dennison Corporation, Heathcote Industrial
Plastics, Soundown Corporation, Vibracoustic Gmbh, Polymer Technology Inc., and
3M among others.
