The report "Ceramic Foams Market by Type (Silicon Carbide, Aluminum Oxide, Zirconium Oxide), Application (Molten Metal Filtration, Thermal & Acoustic Insulation, Automotive exhaust Filters), End-use Industry (Foundry, Automotive), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023", The global ceramic foams market is estimated to be USD 343.2 Million in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 441.7 Million by 2023, at a CAGR of 5.2% between 2018 and 2023. The market is witnessing growth due to the increasing use of ceramic foams in the metal casting application. Strict pollution control regulations and demand for thermally insulated and soundproof materials in building & construction are some of the factors driving the ceramic foams market.
Silicon carbide-based ceramic foams were the largest type of ceramic foams consumed in 2017. This can be attributed to the growing demand for grey and ductile iron cast from the foundry industry. These ceramic foams are increasingly being used in the iron casting application, which is driving its demand globally.
Ceramic foams manufacturers such as Ultramet (US), Vesuvius Plc (UK), SELEE Corporation (US), ERG Aerospace Corp. (US), Saint-Gobain High-Performance Refractories (US), Pyrotek (US), Induceramics (US), LANIK s.r.o (Czech Republic), Drache GmbH (Germany), and Baoding Ningxin New Material Co., Ltd. (China) have been covered in the report.
