Aviation life rafts industry analysis on the global aviation life rafts market identifies that the increased demand for lightweight safety solutions will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. Technavio's market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of nearly 5% by 2021. Lowering the structural weight of an aircraft is one of the key approaches used to enhance its performance. Weight reduction is not just restricted to the main aircraft components but also spreads across the smallest part of the aircraft. Some lightweight materials that have been used recently in aircraft cabin components are aluminum alloys, composites, and hybrid materials. Also, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) support the utilization of lightweight Neoprene fabric for the manufacture of aviation life rafts that can be used by 4 to 11 passengers based on the size of each raft. The adoption of innovative technologies based on using lightweight materials in life rafts will improve the aircraft performance.
The increasing utilization of auto-inflatable life rafts is one of the key trends that will contribute to the growth of this market in the forthcoming years. The auto-inflatable life rafts are lighter in weight and inflate instantaneously as a conventional aircraft can sink in water much quicker than other vessels. These life rafts (weighs around 50 pounds) are stored in a container or valise that is easily accessible. These life rafts inflate automatically in emergency times in maximum of 30 seconds to shield the survivors. The auto-inflatable life rafts help the crash survivors stay afloat and protect the crash survivors against hypothermia that can be fatal within minutes. These advantages will drive its adoption rates of the auto-inflatable life rafts in the aviation industry.
The key players in the aviation life rafts market compete based on cost, product quality, reliability, and market share. The vendors in the market are modernizing their offerings by equipping technologically advanced materials and components. Also, the aircraft cabin manufacturers and life rafts providers are constantly investing in combined efforts among themselves and increasing their partnerships with suppliers to enhance the existing life raft manufacturing technologies.
The leading vendors in the market are ?
The other prominent vendors in the market are C&M Marine Aviation Services and Switlik.
During 2016, the large-sized life rafts accounted for the major shares of the aviation life rafts market. The availability of high-quality and lightweight arch tubes that can be inflated by separate carbon dioxide cylinders or manual inflation tubes and the integration in narrow-body aircraft will contribute to the growth of this industry segment in the coming years.
This market study estimates that in terms of geographic regions, the Americas will be the major revenue contributor to the aviation life rafts market throughout the forecast period. The strong aviation manufacturing network and the presence of highest fleet operating companies will drive the growth of the market in the region.
