• Advancement in wire jacketing applications has introduced advanced cables that can sustain in fire and heat environment for a longer duration. Moreover, the players are focusing on innovations in raw materials by compounding them for increased resistance and durability. Compatibility with high voltage wires is another factor increasing the penetration of cable materials for fire resistant wires.
• Material Insights
• The Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLPE) material segment accounted for the largest market share of 41.2% in 2019 and is expected to witness the highest growth from 2020 to 2027. High-grade insulation properties, coupled with superior electric conductor characteristics, are likely to increase the popularity of these materials for fire resistant cables over the forecast period.
• The ability of XLPE to sustain in harsh weather conditions has increased its usage in the production of cables for long-distance electricity transmissions. The cables jacketed with cross-linked polyethylene offer superior insulation and enhanced current capacity and lightweight characteristics. Thus, these materials are gaining traction in the market.
• Low Smoke Zero Halogens (LSZH) jacketing materials for fire-resistant cables are expected to gain momentum in the near future as they emit low smoke and no halogen when exposed to fire and heat environment. Furthermore, reduced flammability and cost-effectiveness of the material are likely to increase its demand in the coming years.
• Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacketing materials accounted for a substantial share in the market in 2019 owing to their wide commercial availability and known characteristics. Moreover, flexibility, low cost, wear resistance, and heat resistance up to 105-degree temperature are propelling its penetration in the market.
• End-use Insights
• In 2019, the building and construction industry led the market with a 35.5% share and is anticipated to witness the fastest growth from 2020 to 2027. The industry was the largest consumer of fire-resistant materials for cable jacketing applications. Growing concerns regarding fire resistant properties of building structures and the need for sustainable materials to tackle mishaps in the construction projects are anticipated to support the demand for products.
• Electric wires used in automotive and transportation vehicles need superior insulation owing to an extreme heat environment. Growing popularity of electric vehicles across the globe is anticipated to increase the demand for cables that can supply electricity without deviation. This is further likely to support the demand for jacketed cables.
• Growing manufacturing industries in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific are anticipated to witness a rising number of manufacturing facilities in the projected period. Moreover, shifting production facilities from China to India, Vietnam, and South Korea on account of the coronavirus outbreak in the country are expected to build new facilities in the said countries. Thus, with a new production setup, demand for cable jacketing materials is expected to increase.
• Electricity generation projects across the globe are expanding their capacities in light of growing demand from the consumers. The transmission of electricity from the generation plant to the consumer sites needs a reliable and secure channel. Thus, are positively affecting the demand for fire-resistant cable materials.
• Regional Insights
• Asia Pacific was the largest regional market with a share of 31.6% in 2019 and is anticipated to maintain its lead over the forecast period. China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Australia are the leading consumers of fire-resistant cables on account of rising need for fire safety in commercial and residential buildings. Furthermore, growing automotive production and prominent manufacturing of electrical machinery and equipment are expected to support industry growth in this region.
