The aerogel market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.24 billion in 2023 to $1.48 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.8%. Historical growth can be attributed to advancements in the aerospace industry, energy efficiency initiatives, increased demand in the oil and gas sector, applications in medical and healthcare fields, and expansion in electronics and consumer goods.

The aerogel market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.74 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.7%. Forecasted growth can be attributed to the adoption of aerogels in the oil and gas industry, advancements in materials science, applications in environmental remediation, medical and healthcare sectors, and lightweighting in automotive manufacturing. Major trends in the forecast period include a heightened focus on sustainability, advancements in manufacturing technologies, integration into energy storage systems, the emergence of transparent aerogels, and innovations in healthcare applications.

The anticipated growth in the construction industry is poised to drive expansion in the aerogel market in the upcoming years. The construction sector encompasses activities related to the establishment and upkeep of construction sites, infrastructure, and various physical structures, involving tasks such as project planning, design, financing, and execution. Aerogels find application in construction as lightweight insulation materials, enhancing energy efficiency and architectural insulation due to their low thermal conductivity and high porosity. For example, in November 2023, the Office for National Statistics reported a £18.16 billion ($19.89 billion) increase in overall new construction work in 2022, with private and public new construction experiencing rises of 16.8% and 13.1%, respectively. Hence, the burgeoning demand in the construction industry is a driving force behind the aerogel market's growth.

Prominent companies in the aerogel market are concentrating on innovative products, such as aerogel particles designed for use in thermal barriers for lithium-ion batteries. Aerogel particles, derived from gels where the liquid component is replaced by gas, exhibit exceptionally low density and thermal conductivity. For instance, in May 2023, Cabot Corporation introduced the ENTERA aerogel particle portfolio, serving as a thermal insulation additive for creating ultra-thin heat barriers in electric vehicle (EV) lithium-ion batteries. The portfolio comprises three ENTERA aerogel materials - ENTERA EV5200, ENTERA EV5400, and ENTERA EV5800 - offered in various sizes from microns to millimeters. These aerogel particles are notably up to 20 times lighter than conventional insulation additives, with over 90% air content.

In May 2021, KRAHN Chemie GmbH secured distribution rights for additives in Italy and Poland from Svenska Aerogel Holding AB, marking a strategic partnership aimed at providing customers access to specialized products. This collaboration enhances Krahn Chemie's product portfolio and underscores its commitment to meeting diverse customer needs. Svenska Aerogel Holding AB specializes in the production of aerogel material and is based in Sweden.

Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.

The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD, unless otherwise specified).

Aerogels are a category of lightweight and highly porous materials derived from a gel, in which the liquid component is replaced with a gas. This transformation results in a substance with extremely low density and exceptional thermal insulating properties, as well as structural versatility. Aerogels hold promise for various medical applications, including drug delivery systems and wound dressings, due to their biocompatibility and porosity.

The primary types of aerogels include silica, polymers, carbon, and others. Silica, commonly known as silicon dioxide (SiO2) and found in various forms such as sand, quartz, and flint, boasts diverse applications owing to its unique characteristics. Silica aerogel is anticipated to replace conventional insulating materials across various sectors. Aerogels are categorized into different forms such as blankets, particles, panels, and monoliths, and find use in industries such as oil and gas, building and construction, automotive, aerospace, marine, performance coatings, and others.
