Microporous insulation is a high performance thermal insulation which operates under very high temperatures. These insulations find extensive usage in transportation sector owing to low thermal conductivity, high thermal stability and most chemicals resistive nature. Thriving aerospace industry will increase product usage in auxiliary power units, exhaust systems, black boxes and voyage data recorders to regulate high temperatures. Moreover, growing investments in the sector will further boost produce utilization near term. For instance, LeoLabs, a space mapping startup has raised USD 13 million in a Series A funding round led by Airbus Ventures and WERU Investment of Tokyo and as per World Economic Forum start-ups in aerospace sector has received over USD 1 billion investment in 2018.

Growing trend towards sustainable industrialization will increase product usage in furnaces, stoves, and chimneys to regulate high temperatures and resist thermal shocks. This in turn will increase microporous insulations demand in metal works, glass manufacturing and end-use sectors. However, high capital and operational expense may restrain microporous insulations market over the near-term.

Global microporous insulation market is broadly segmented on the basis of material, products and end-use sectors. By material the market is classified into alumina silica and calcium magnesium silicate. Here, calcium magnesium silicate based microporous insulations is the largest and fastest growing material in the market, which is due to its environment and user friendly nature.

By product, the market is predominantly classified into rigid boards and panels, flexible boards and other products such as pourable, machined and moldable microporous insulations. Machined microporous insulation possesses very good thermal and mechanical properties and are available with various coverings & coatings for incorporation into requiring products and assemblies.

Based on end-use sector, the market is segmented into energy & power, oil & gas, transportation, metal works and others end-use sectors that include glass manufacturing, consumer appliances, etc. Energy & power segment is among the fastest growing with the CAGR of around 17% in the market owing to rising energy demand for expanding population across the world.

Asia pacific is the fastest growing region in the market owing to rising automotive manufacturing in the region. Additionally, various governments in the region are significantly investing in automotive and e-vehicles manufacturing. For instance, Indian government has allocated an investment of around USD 1.14 billion for National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020 in addition to this government of India will also initiate the second phase of FAME (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electronic Vehicles) in the region. Which in turn will increase microporous insulation market during the anticipated timeframe.
