The expansion in aircraft production is anticipated to be a significant driver for the aircraft doors market in the future. Aircraft production involves the manufacturing of vehicles capable of flight. During aircraft assembly, doors such as passenger exit doors, emergency exits, and service doors are installed, playing a vital role in maintaining the required internal pressure and ensuring aircraft safety. For instance, a report by CAPA - Centre for Aviation in November 2022 indicated that major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) such as Airbus and Boeing foresee delivering over 1000 aircraft in 2022, with plans for even greater production in 2023. The combined deliveries by both OEMs totaled 898 aircraft in 2021 and 766 commercial aircraft during the first three quarters of 2022. Hence, the surge in aircraft production is a key factor driving the aircraft doors market.
The expanding commercial aviation industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the aircraft doors market in the future. The commercial aviation sector involves the use of aircraft for transporting goods or passengers, excluding military operations. Within this industry, aircraft doors are essential for ensuring passenger safety, operational efficiency, and the overall functionality of commercial aircraft. For example, in January 2023, Airbus SE, a Netherlands-based aircraft manufacturing company, reported delivering 661 commercial aircraft to 84 customers in 2022, marking an 8% increase compared to 2021. Thus, the growth of the commercial aviation industry is expected to positively impact the aircraft doors market.
Key players in the aircraft doors market are forming strategic partnerships to broaden their customer base and concentrate on long-term growth initiatives. Strategic partnerships are collaborative arrangements between two or more organizations aimed at achieving specific business goals. Companies involved in aircraft doors are partnering with aircraft manufacturers to foster innovation and business development, secure a competitive advantage, improve cost efficiency, and encourage the reusability of resources. For example, in February 2024, Airbus, an India-based aircraft manufacturing company, collaborated with Dynamatic Technologies, a company in the Indian aircraft industry, to produce A220 aircraft doors in India. This contract enables Dynamatic to manufacture various doors for the A220 program, including cargo, passenger, service, and over-wing emergency exit doors. This partnership is expected to create opportunities for other Indian suppliers, thereby supporting local economic growth and job creation in the aerospace sector. Furthermore, it will enhance the Indian aerospace ecosystem by advancing complex system integration capabilities and developing local technological expertise.
