Aerospace tapes play a crucial role in creating optimal surfaces to protect the composite molding of aircraft. These tapes are utilized for bonding, insulation, and sealing sensitive equipment and structures within an aircraft. Their applications contribute to extending the lifespan of an aircraft's infrastructure and equipment while concurrently reducing maintenance costs by safeguarding against vibrations, corrosion, and fluid exposure.
The primary resin types used in aerospace tapes include acrylic, rubber, silicone, and other specialized formulations. Acrylic, derived from acrylic acid, is employed in various forms such as plastic, fabric, fiber, or paint. The backing materials for these tapes encompass paper or tissue, film, foam, and other materials tailored to specific needs. Aerospace tapes find application across diverse end-users, including commercial aviation, military aviation, and general aviation.

This aerospace tapes market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the aerospace tapes industry.
The aerospace tapes market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.41 billion in 2023 to $2.57 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to various factors, including a rise in aircraft production, increased activities in maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), adherence to stringent safety standards and regulations, a surge in air cargo transport, and an increase in space exploration activities. These combined influences have played a significant role in shaping the positive trajectory witnessed during that time.
The aerospace tapes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.32 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the rising electrification of aircraft, increasing defense spending, a surge in global trade, aging aircraft fleets, and an increase in disposable income. Key trends expected during this period encompass the integration of smart materials, advancements in nanotechnology, a focus on sustainability and eco-friendly tapes, the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) in tape design, and the implementation of blockchain for traceability. These trends reflect the dynamic landscape of the aerospace tapes industry and the ongoing efforts to align with technological innovations and sustainability goals.
The increasing demand for commercial aircraft is anticipated to be a significant driver for the aerospace tape market. Commercial aircraft are non-military planes used for the transportation of passengers and cargo. Aerospace tapes and related equipment are essential for ensuring safety and conducting maintenance and repairs on commercial aircraft. For instance, in the fourth quarter of 2021, both Boeing, a US-based commercial aircraft, defense, space, and security system manufacturer, and Airbus, a Netherlands-based company specializing in aviation, defense, and space services, reported increased deliveries of commercial jets. Airbus, in particular, delivered 611 aircraft in 2021, compared to 566 in 2020. This surge in deliveries reflects the growing demand for commercial aircraft, driving the aerospace tape market's growth.
Increased investments in the aerospace industry are also expected to boost the aerospace tape market. Investments typically involve allocating resources, such as capital, time, or effort, into various aerospace-related activities, such as research and development, quality assurance, manufacturing of aerospace tapes, technological advancements, sustainability initiatives, market expansion, and safety compliance. In 2022, investments in the aerospace and defense sector reached new heights, with funding tripling compared to the previous year, reaching $33.63 billion, according to Pitch Book Data Inc., a US-based capital market company. This increased investment activity is driving the growth of the aerospace tape market.
Product innovation stands out as a prominent trend in the aerospace tape market. Major companies operating in this market are actively developing innovative products to strengthen their market positions. For instance, in May 2021, Intertape Polymer Group, a Canada-based manufacturer of aerospace tapes, introduced a unique flame-retardant polyethylene tape called PEFR. PEFR features an aggressive rubber adhesive designed to create a conformable and watertight seal while adding an extra layer of fire and flame resistance. This makes it well-suited for various applications, including use with fabrics, surface protection, and flame-retardant films.
Companies in the aerospace tape market are emphasizing product innovations, specifically targeting MRO structural film adhesive to fulfill aerospace taping requirements. MRO structural film adhesive, short for Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) structural film adhesive, serves as an adhesive used for bonding aerospace primary and secondary structures during maintenance and repair operations. Park Aerospace Corp., a UK-based company in the aerospace industry, introduced the Aeroadhere FAE-350-1 structural film adhesive in May 2023. This epoxy formulation film adhesive is designed for various aerospace applications, including composite-to-composite, composite-to-honeycomb, composite-to-metal, metal-to-metal, and metal-to-honeycomb bonding in both aerospace original equipment and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) applications.
