Growing Demand from the Automotive Sector
The rising demand from the automotive sector drives the India elastomers market growth. With increasing vehicle production and the shift toward electric vehicles (EVs), elastomers such as styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) are being widely used for tire manufacturing, seals, and gaskets. For instance, the Indian government is actively encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) through several policies, such as the FAME II scheme, which has a budget of INR 11,500 Crore, and the PLI scheme for the automotive sector, which has a budget of INR 25,938 Crore. As of July 8, 2024, EV registrations in India increased by 16% in the first half of 2024, reaching 8,42,396 units compared to 7,23,492 in the same period in 2023. The nation has also set up 16,344 public charging stations. This rise in EV manufacturing and infrastructure is expected to drive demand for advanced elastomers used in components like seals, gaskets, tires, and thermal insulation materials, particularly those that can withstand higher temperatures and electrical loads in EVs. In addition to this, elastomers offer a great replacement for lightweight materials due to their flexibility and durability. Furthermore, research on bio-based elastomers is expanding due to the drive for sustainability. Demand is also increasing with government programs encouraging domestic auto manufacturing under the "Make in India" initiative. Consumers' increasing desire for high-performance and fuel-efficient automobiles is leading to innovations in elastomer-based components. The market for premium elastomers in India is anticipated to increase gradually over the next several years due to the development of automotive technology.
Expanding Applications in the Medical and Healthcare Industry
The medical and healthcare industry is emerging as a key driver of the Indian elastomers market, fueled by the increasing demand for medical-grade rubber materials. Elastomers such as nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and silicone-based elastomers are extensively used in medical devices, gloves, tubing, and seals due to their superior chemical resistance and biocompatibility. The rise in healthcare infrastructure, coupled with growing awareness of infection control, leads to an increase in demand for disposable medical products made from elastomers. In addition to this, implementation of favorable government initiatives is facilitating the market expansion. According to an industry report, India's healthcare sector is projected to reach USD 320 Billion by 2028. This expansion is expected to support growth in the country's elastomers market, especially in medical-grade applications such as tubing, gloves, catheters, and seals. Elastomers like silicone and thermoplastic elastomers are increasingly used in diagnostic devices, wearable medical tech, and drug delivery systems due to their flexibility, durability, and biocompatibility. The rise in healthcare infrastructure, diagnostics, and medical manufacturing will likely increase demand for these materials across both domestic production and exports. Additionally, advancements in 3D printing and flexible medical implants e further expand elastomer applications in the sector. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of elastomer-based protective gear, which continues to drive market demand post-pandemic. With increasing healthcare investments and technological innovations, the medical industry's reliance on high-performance elastomers is set to strengthen, thereby positively impacting the India elastomers market outlook.
