The Global Ceramic Paper Market will witness favorable growth trends within the forecast period owing to rising insulation applications. Ceramic paper mainly contains alumino-silicate fiber and is manufactured by specialized paper making processes. It is mainly used for thermal insulation, refractory backup, molten metal splash and spark protection, pipe wrapping, metal casing, high temperature electrical insulation and filtration, hot gas filtration media, high-temperature gasket for furnace, kiln, oven, stove, boiler and appliances, etc.
 

The market will be driven by rising demand from aerospace industry for effective thermal insulation of aircrafts. Ceramic paper is used in aircraft appliance insulation, oxygen generators, igniter line production, gaskets, fuselage, heat shields, noise cone ablative shields, etc. It has low weight, high strength and excellent fire-resistant characteristics, thus making it a popular choice among aircraft manufacturers. Rising demand for air travel and huge aircraft order backlogs are going to upscale the manufacturing of aircrafts in future. Additionally, technological advancements to make aircrafts lighter, safer and efficient will drive the aerospace industry thereby bolstering the market during the forecast time span.

 

Favorable trends associated with automotive industry is set to drive the ceramic paper market as they are used for muffler insulation, heat shielding, exhaust and other components. Due to rising global population and higher income levels, demand for automobiles will increase in future. Increasing research and development activities will further assist upward growth trends in automotive industry. Such trends will propel the market within the forecast time span.
 

Ceramic paper is used for ware separators, glass tank refractory backups and metal clad brisk gaskets in glass and ceramics industry. In building and construction, the product is widely used for thermal as well as acoustic insulation, driven by its resistance to tearing, shocks, and low thermal conductivity and thermal mass. Rising demand for smart buildings will bolster the ceramic paper demand over the coming years.
 

Ceramic paper is widely used in petrochemical industry for the pipe insulation, protection of transfer lines, and brazing, welding, etc. They improve the efficiency of various processes while reducing overall energy consumption. This will subsequently help in savings energy, carbon footprint as well as operating costs. The demand for petrochemicals will increase due to wide range of applications in plastics, fertilizers, packaging, digital devices, medical equipment, detergent, clothing and others. Huge capital investments, supportive government policies and increasing demand from end-user industries will fuel the growth of petrochemical industry, which will subsequently catapult the demand of ceramic paper in future.
 

Ceramic paper is gaining popularity over conventional materials used in insulation applications as they offer various benefits such as high temperature and fire resistance, low thermal conductivity, high temperature stability, thermal shock resistance, good corrosion resistance, ease of fabrication, good flame resistance, etc., and it will facilitate the market growth in upcoming years. However, the market may be hampered by high production costs involved in manufacturing of ceramic paper.
 

Asia Pacific region is estimated to grow at significant rate due to rapid urbanization and industrialization trends. Rising automobile production in China and India will attract the demand for ceramic paper as it simplifies the fabrication process during automobile production and reduces the overall manufacturing costs. According to European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), China led the global passenger car production and accounted for 29% of total production in 2017. Europe accounted for approximately 20% of global automobile production and it will grow at considerable rate owing to supportive government policies. North America and Europe will witness steady growth due to flourishing aerospace industry. The U.S., France, United Kingdom and Germany are the leading countries accounting for more than 50% of global aerospace industry and they will continue to dominate sector in future. This in turn will spur the global ceramic paper market within the forecast period.
