Flexible rubber sheets are manufactured by processing different types of base materials, such as natural rubber, reclaimed rubber, recycled rubber and synthetic rubber. These sheets find many applications in different industries, such as chemical, automotive, military & defense, construction, aerospace, mining, marine, etc.
Furthermore, depending upon the type of sheet, flexible rubber sheets possess different properties. Some of the commonly used types are neoprene sheets, EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) sheets, nitrile (Buna-N / NBR) sheets, SBR (styrene butadiene rubber) sheets, silicone sheets, butyl sheets, viton sheets, thermoplastic elastomer sheets, etc.
Each type has different beneficial properties, such as high tensile strength, better rebound elasticity, goof flexibility, high tensile strength and corrosion resistance, among others.
Flexible rubber sheets offer many beneficial properties, such as high wear resistance, high chemical resistance, higher durability, abrasion resistance, high elasticity, high and low temperature resistance, etc.
These properties of flexible rubber sheets make them useful in various applications, such as corrosion resistance coatings, high zone and outdoor environmental applications, flooring, sealing parts, cement sleeves, insulation coatings, etc. Increasing demand for flexible rubber sheets from various end-use industries is expected to push market growth over the forecast period.
However, these sheets have poor resistance to hydrocarbon, oils and fats along with poor weather characteristics. Additionally, there are many environmental issues caused by the rubber industry.
For instance, the wastewater released by the plastic industry contains high levels of ammonia and sulfate and leads to bad smell, etc. These are some of the important factors expected to hamper the growth of the flexible rubber sheets market during the forecast period.
The North America region has expanding aerospace and automotive industries, which require cost-effective and high strength materials and thus, the region will witness robust growth in the flexible rubber sheets market over the forecast period in the region.
The Asia Pacific region, owing to increasing manufacturing industries in China, India, Japan and other countries, will witness significant traction. The growing automotive and construction industries will increase the demand for better corrosion resistant and sealing materials in Asia Pacific region and thus, will push the growth of the flexible rubber sheets market over the forecast period.
Europe is expected to witness relatively steady growth in the flexible rubber sheets market owing to the moderate growth being witnessed in automotive and transportation industries in the region and expanding marine and mining industry. The Middle East & Africa region, with its growing construction industry, is expected to witness increased demand for flexible rubber sheets.
The Latin America region is estimated to witness considerable growth in the flexible rubber sheets market owing to increasing automotive sales and transportation in the region during the forecast period.
