<strong>Au<strong>to</strong>motive</strong> <strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

Outlook 2018-<strong>2025</strong> Industry <strong>Analysis</strong>,<br />

Opportunities, <strong>Segmentation</strong> <strong>and</strong> Forecast<br />

“The Global <strong>Au<strong>to</strong>motive</strong> <strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> market is<br />

expected <strong>to</strong> grow over the forecast period owing <strong>to</strong> the<br />

growth in the average production of vehicles <strong>and</strong> sales<br />

volume globally per year. Light weight materials are<br />

characterized <strong>by</strong> high strength <strong>and</strong> lighter weights. Light<br />

weight materials enhance the bettering parameters such<br />

as acceleration <strong>and</strong> h<strong>and</strong>ling.”<br />

The global <strong>Au<strong>to</strong>motive</strong> Light Weight <strong>Materials</strong> <strong>Market</strong> is expected <strong>to</strong> witness significant growth in the forecast period<br />

owning <strong>to</strong> its wide spread applications in au<strong>to</strong>motive sec<strong>to</strong>r. Due <strong>to</strong> stringent rules <strong>and</strong> regulations pertaining <strong>to</strong><br />

emissions <strong>and</strong> pollution levels, this is expected <strong>to</strong> further increase <strong>and</strong> have <strong>and</strong> a wider application platform. The<br />

growing dem<strong>and</strong> in this market is majorly driven <strong>by</strong> increase in the consumption of light weight materials in the<br />

au<strong>to</strong>motive industry. The Global <strong>Au<strong>to</strong>motive</strong> <strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> market is expected <strong>to</strong> grow over the forecast<br />

period owing <strong>to</strong> the growth in the average production of vehicles <strong>and</strong> sales volume globally per year. Light weight<br />

materials are characterized <strong>by</strong> high strength <strong>and</strong> lighter weights. Light weight materials enhance the bettering<br />

parameters such as acceleration <strong>and</strong> h<strong>and</strong>ling. Au<strong>to</strong>makers usually obtain more freedom, flexibility <strong>and</strong> ease with the<br />

introduction of light weight materials in the au<strong>to</strong>motive industry. It enables designers <strong>to</strong> design vehicles that can be<br />

electronically operated <strong>by</strong> using batteries which are available at lowers costs <strong>and</strong> provide higher performance<br />

Structural application of these markets are estimated <strong>to</strong> have the largest growth <strong>and</strong> a market share in terms of value.<br />

With stringent emission norms, manufacturers in the au<strong>to</strong>motive industry are required <strong>to</strong> follow regulations that lead<br />

them <strong>to</strong> use light weight materials that indirectly improves efficiency in their vehicles. Requirements like better fuel<br />

efficiency, improved mileage, better fuel economy, an improved driving experience, better performance of the vehicle<br />

in addition <strong>to</strong> a greater power in the driving experience ae other fac<strong>to</strong>rs that fuel the increase in dem<strong>and</strong> from<br />

consumers for light weight materials. In addition, use of light weight materials reduce the weight of the vehicle that<br />

provides enhanced security <strong>and</strong> better experience. It has also given au<strong>to</strong>motive designers an opportunity <strong>to</strong> innovate<br />

<strong>and</strong> create new designs <strong>and</strong> structures owing <strong>to</strong> the property of these materials <strong>to</strong> be readily <strong>and</strong> easily be molded<br />

in<strong>to</strong> any desirable shape <strong>and</strong> size. They therefore provide an added advantage of innovation <strong>to</strong> au<strong>to</strong>motive<br />

manufacturers.<br />

Original Equipment manufacturers (OEM) have further contributed <strong>to</strong> the increased usage of light weight materials<br />

mainly the carbon filter in au<strong>to</strong>motive vehicles. Metal like Aluminium is used for manufacturing casing used for<br />

transmission, manufacturing engines <strong>and</strong> wheels. Some OEMs have begun using aluminum <strong>to</strong> manufacture the whole<br />

au<strong>to</strong>motive vehicle. However, there are high costs <strong>and</strong> funds associated with designing vehicles which can hinder the<br />

growth in dem<strong>and</strong> for vehicles in this industry. Another metal which is a part of light weight materials used in the<br />

au<strong>to</strong>motive market is magnesium It is used in manufacturing instrument panels <strong>and</strong> car beams owing <strong>to</strong> the property<br />

that it is less dense that steel or aluminum. Composites, is another light weight material that is growing at an increasing<br />

pace owing <strong>to</strong> its flexible property of designing in any shape. Glass fiber composites are widely used in the au<strong>to</strong>motive<br />

industry for the same property of being ductile Carbon fiber composites are expected <strong>to</strong> grab a larger share as<br />

compared <strong>to</strong> other composites as they are much lighter with respect o other composites. However, they are expensive<br />

<strong>and</strong> this can hamper the growth of this light weight material in the au<strong>to</strong>motive industry in the forecast period.<br />

Light weight materials have a wide spread presence in the aerospace industry. Plastics, carbon fibers <strong>and</strong> metals are<br />

used <strong>to</strong> manufacture <strong>and</strong> design the structural, interior <strong>and</strong> exterior parts of a vehicle The fuel consumption of a vehicle<br />

is drastically reduced <strong>by</strong> making the vehicle as light as possible. If the weight of a vehicle is reduced <strong>by</strong> 10% the fuel<br />

consumption can be reduced <strong>by</strong> about 5% <strong>to</strong> 7% owing <strong>to</strong> the reduced effort required <strong>to</strong> move <strong>and</strong> accelerate the<br />

vehicle. Lighter the weight of the vehicle, lesser would be the fuel consumption. Asia Pacific is estimated <strong>to</strong> be the<br />

largest market in au<strong>to</strong>motive light weight materials industry in terms of volume. Major contribu<strong>to</strong>rs of light weight<br />

materials in Asia are China, India <strong>and</strong> Japan. Due <strong>to</strong> a reasonable amount of dem<strong>and</strong> for vehicles, <strong>by</strong> volume, in these<br />

regions, there are several light weight manufacturers <strong>and</strong> suppliers who are readily available <strong>to</strong> contribute <strong>to</strong> the<br />

market that can provide them with better profits.<br />

In Northern America, it was the U.S that contributed <strong>to</strong> the largest share in the au<strong>to</strong>motive light weight materials<br />

market. However, developing economies in Asia- Pacific such as China <strong>and</strong> India are expected <strong>to</strong> be the new revenuegenerating<br />

areas for the existing market players in the foreseeable future. Increase in population, growing economies,<br />

strict emission rules <strong>and</strong> regulations, better awareness about eco-friendly system <strong>and</strong> advantages of a better fuel


efficient vehicle are the key drivers that have a major effect on the au<strong>to</strong>motive light weight materials market in these<br />

regions. Key players in the au<strong>to</strong>motive lightweight materials market industry have been identified <strong>to</strong> be Arcelor Mittal<br />

S.A. (Luxemburg), Thyssen Krupp AG (Germany), Novelis Inc. (U.S.), Toray Industries Inc. (Japan) <strong>and</strong> Bayer AG<br />

(Germany). These market players usually strategize <strong>by</strong> geographically exp<strong>and</strong>ing or <strong>by</strong> mergers & acquisitions.<br />
