The market is burgeoning amidst increasing focus on vehicle safety and stringent standards. Automobile manufacturers and auto-component makers are ramping up vehicle production activities to meet severe vehicle safety requirements and comply with stringent safety standards. This growth is bolstered by rising concerns over road accidents, prompting investments in vehicle occupant-restraint systems like Airbag modules, Side-torso airbags, and Crash sensors. The market benefits from India's robust automotive and auto-ancillary industry, supported by production plants equipped with Energy-absorbing surfaces and Electronic controller units. With a skilled workforce and emphasis on innovation, including technologies for Steering wheels, Device panels, Body pillars, and Headliners, India emerges as a pivotal player in advancing automotive safety through airbag systems. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year and the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Increased vehicle safety is a major factor driving the market growth. Over a million people die as a result of traffic accidents every year. By exercising caution and putting safety systems in cars, these fatalities can be reduced. One of the safety features of cars is that they can lessen the number of accident-related injuries and fatalities. The sides of automobile doors, the front instrument panel, and the steering wheels all include these products.
Furthermore, the curtain products detect the impact during a collision and communicate with the ECU. This will be deployed by the ECU, preventing injuries to passengers. The majority of currently produced vehicles include these products. Vehicles are also equipped with curtain products. The tops of the doors and the roof of the vehicle are equipped with these products. The rising concern for vehicle safety is expected to accelerate the growth of global market during the forecast period.
M&A and partnerships in the automotive airbag and its component markets are major trends. Changes in the environment of the global market due to acquisitions will positively affect the global market. The global automotive industry is highly competitive, and companies across the automotive value chain are looking for ways to strengthen their position.
Furthermore, other strategic activities, such as partnerships, are gaining momentum in focus markets. For instance, in October 2020, Toyoda Gosei Co. Ltd. agreed to set up a joint venture firm to produce yarns for automobile airbags with Bangkok-based Indorama Polyester Industries PCL (IPI), which is under the umbrella of the world's largest polyethylene terephthalate (PET) producer, Indorama Ventures PCL. Thus due to the increasing number of partnerships among industry players, the global market is expected to witness high growth during the forecast period.
Failure of airbag systems is a major challenge faced by the market. These are designed to protect the driver and passengers during a crash. However, sometimes they may fail to do so. Airbags may deploy without warning or may not deploy when needed. As the head or body of occupants is too close to the airbag when it deploys, it can cause serious injury.
Front airbags have so far proven to be effective and useful in saving thousands of lives a year. Although airbags are designed to save lives, they can sometimes cause injuries. Airbag injuries can range from facial lacerations to broken noses, depending on the severity of the incident and whether or not the airbag is at fault. Therefore, growing concern about airbag systems failure may hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the passenger cars segment will be significant during the forecast period. The growing demand for safe vehicles has led to an increase in demand for airbags worldwide.
