Aviation lubricants are specialized products designed to reduce friction, wear and corrosion in the various components of aircraft. These lubricants are essential for maintaining the performance and safety of all types of aircraft, from commercial jets to military helicopters.
The aviation lubricants market consists of sales, by entities (organizations, sole traders or partnerships), of aviation lubricants that refer to specialized fluids designed to ensure the proper functioning and protection of various mechanical components in aircraft, helicopters and other aviation-related machinery. These lubricants are crucial for maintaining performance, safety and longevity of aircraft systems under the demanding conditions they face during operation.
The global aviation lubricants market was valued at $1,500.02 million in 2018 which grew till 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 3.0%.
Favorable Government Support
During the historic period, favorable government initiatives supported the growth of the aviation lubricants market. Governments offered financial assistance and subsidies to airlines, effectively lowering their operational costs. This support allowed airlines to allocate more resources towards high-quality maintenance, including the utilization of advanced aviation lubricants. For instance, in Canada, in June 2023, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry announced an investment of $350 million, to support Canada's new Initiative for Sustainable Aviation Technology (INSAT), aimed at accelerating the green industrial transformation of the aerospace industry. This investment, via the Strategic Innovation Fund, will establish a pan-Canadian, industry-led aerospace network, focused on funding collaborative research and development projects with companies of all sizes across the Canadian supply chain. Therefore, favorable government initiatives drove the growth of the aviation lubricants market.
