According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Aerospace Floor Panels Market is accounted for $93.2 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $143.1 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period. The floor panels of aircraft are made to endure heavy compression loads. Most of the materials used in flooring panels have a honeycomb structure and are composites. Lightweight floor panels are in demand due to the focus on lightweight aircraft, and manufacturers are putting more effort into making them. Moreover, advanced materials and systems are used during the engineering and manufacturing processes to achieve certain attributes like stiffness, high strength, and durability. For the comfort of both passengers and cabin crew, heated floor panels have also been constructed.
According to Airbus Forecast, the demand for small passenger aircraft is expected to be 4,910 units, 695 units for medium passenger aircraft units, and 360 units for large passenger aircraft units.
The expanding middle class and increases in disposable income have both made significant contributions to the rising demand. The fleet of commercial aeroplanes is constantly expanding to keep up with the escalating demand. As a result, the floor panels in the recently produced aircraft are made of lightweight and high-performing materials. This is the most significant driver of market expansion.
The significance of strict restrictions on the aerospace sector is supported by the degree of danger associated with the aviation industry as well as the sheer quantity of lives that are at risk. The sector is governed by various strict regional standards. To maintain high quality and safety standards, these laws cover both components and materials utilised in the business. Due of the intense competition and complexity resulting from this, the market's expansion is constrained.
The profitability of airlines is directly impacted by lightweight materials due to their great improvement in fuel efficiency. In order to facilitate weight reduction, floor panels composed of lightweight materials are widely used in the aerospace sector. Also, these materials are not easily ignited, ensuring passenger safety in the event of a fire or other emergency. This factor is expected to drive the market.
Composite material aeroplane floor panels are expensive to begin with, which can permanently impede market growth. The usage of composite materials like aluminium honeycomb necessitates significant maintenance, which raises the expense of upkeep. The high cost of repair and maintenance for composite-made aeroplane floor panels may be a key factor impeding the market expansion.
The latest COVID-19 epidemic has had a major impact on the world and is still destabilising various nations. Despite massive backlogs from the aircraft manufacturers, the aerospace industry was experiencing significant growth in terms of production and services prior to the outbreak. The global aviation industry also saw a significant increase in passenger numbers, an increase in aircraft procurement, as well as an increase in activities. As a result, the destabilisation in aircraft production has had a significant impact on the companies of market participants for aviation floor panels.
The nomex honeycomb segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to an increase in commercial aircraft demand. The demand will probably increase if other cell sizes, strengths, and thicknesses are available. High fire resistance, rigidity, lightweight, thermal stability, good dielectric characteristics, and superior strength are just a few of the properties that will enhance overall usage throughout the present projected period.
The commercial aviation segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to increasing air passenger traffic. The rise in passenger travel is being backed by an increase in manufacturer deliveries. Moreover, more routes connecting different cities have boosted air passenger travel. This is the major factor propelling the growth of the segment.
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to increasing demand for various types of aircraft. The number of travellers travelling by plane is continuously rising in the area. Repairs and other assembling tasks account for the majority of the aerospace floor usage in the area. The expanding importance of floor panels and the growing demand for aeroplanes will drive the region's growth.
North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the huge presence of major aircraft fleet. Most of the participants have facilities for manufacture and assembly. Also, all of the industry's key floor panel manufacturers are located nearby to support OEMs in developing cutting-edge products that meet airline requirements. This region has been a pioneer in the aerospace sector, with various small to large-sized OEMs in each aircraft sector.
Some of the key players profiled in the Aerospace Floor Panels Market include: The Gill Corporation, Rockwell Collins, Euro-Composites, Triumph Group, Zodiac Aerospace, Avcorp Corporation, Nordam Group, Encore Group, Advanced Custom Manufacturing, JB International, EFW, Aim Altitude and Comtek Advanced Structures Ltd.
In December 2022, Collins Aerospace opens new engineering and global operations centers in India to accelerate innovations in R&D and manufacturing. As part of a significant investment to expand its manufacturing operations in India, Collins Aerospace, has officially inaugurated its new Global Engineering and Technology Center (GETC) and Collins India Operations Center in Bengaluru.
In September 2022, Triumph Group announced that its Product Support business in Thailand has completed an extension with global aircraft manufacturer Airbus, to continue Triumph's long-standing provision of repair station services for Airbus Proprietary Parts, managed by Satair, an Airbus services company and world leader in the commercial aerospace aftermarket.
