This dominance is being attributed to the rapid modernization of passenger aircraft fleets and the increasing complexity of on-board electronic systems, including avionics, in-flight entertainment, and wireless communication systems.
Growth in this segment is being driven by airlines’ efforts to ensure uninterrupted system performance, reduce maintenance costs, and comply with stringent electromagnetic interference regulations. The rising demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and lightweight materials has also supported the adoption of advanced EMI shielding solutions in commercial aviation.
Additionally, retrofitting older aircraft with improved shielding materials is becoming a common practice to extend operational life and meet evolving safety standards As air traffic continues to grow globally, the need for reliable electromagnetic protection in commercial aircraft is expected to reinforce the segment’s leading position.
The fixed wing platform type segment is expected to hold 52.70% of total Aircraft EMI Shielding market revenue in 2025, representing the largest share among platform types. This growth is being driven by the extensive use of fixed wing aircraft in commercial, cargo, and defense operations, where high-performance electronic systems are critical for navigation, communication, and mission execution.
Fixed wing platforms require consistent electromagnetic interference mitigation due to the concentrated density of avionics and control systems in limited airframe space. The modularity of modern fixed wing aircraft allows for the integration of advanced shielding materials without significant modifications, enhancing adoption.
Increasing reliance on digital flight systems, automated control modules, and satellite communication in fixed wing aircraft has further accelerated the demand for EMI shielding solutions The segment’s leadership is expected to continue as manufacturers prioritize compliance with electromagnetic safety standards while maintaining operational efficiency and reliability.
The narrow body aircraft type segment is anticipated to capture 41.80% of Aircraft EMI Shielding market revenue in 2025, making it the largest aircraft type segment. The growth is being attributed to the high production volume and global adoption of narrow body aircraft for short to medium-haul routes. These aircraft are increasingly equipped with sophisticated avionics, in-flight connectivity, and electronic monitoring systems, necessitating effective EMI shielding solutions to ensure safety and performance.
The segment has benefited from cost-efficient shielding techniques that maintain aircraft weight targets while protecting sensitive electronics. Additionally, retrofit programs for narrow body fleets are common, as airlines upgrade older aircraft to meet current electromagnetic compliance standards.
Rising passenger traffic and fleet expansion plans by low-cost and full-service carriers are further driving the adoption of advanced EMI shielding in this segment With narrow body aircraft forming a significant proportion of global commercial fleets, the demand for robust electromagnetic protection is expected to remain strong.
There has been an imperative need for emi shielding in the military and other aerospace applications. With growing advancements in the wireless technology and increased signal sensitivity in devices, there has been a greater demand for shielding in the avionic equipment. The electromagnetic interference caused by induction or outside radiation may affect the electrical circuit of the aircraft. Electromagnetic interference can cause temporary and permanent disruption in the circuit components. The electric fields induced may be intentional or unintentional but is a major problem for advanced devices and degrade or fully destroy the avionic equipment.
Thus there has been a greater need of aircraft emi shielding to save the electronics and also prevent severe accidents which might occur due to electronic interference between pilot and the connecting tower. The shielding of devices has not only reduced emi emissions but also has led to increased performance. Various parameters need to be gauged to evaluate the effectiveness of the shielding such as material of the shield, thickness, frequency and distance of the shield.
