Report Summary
The global gaskets and seals market size was valued at USD 65.1 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. The products are increasingly being used for providing a physical barrier against contaminants, fluids, electromagnetic interference, and electrostatic discharge.
Rings are used for leakage or ingress prevention, protection against environmental contaminants and vibrations. Rubber is a prominent material used for the manufacturing of the product. Nitrile is used in applications involving oils, fuels, and solvents, whereas Viton is more appropriate for chemicals.
The automotive industry is a major contributor to the global market. Cork washers and compressed fiber seals are used in oil-bathed transmission systems. Geometrically shaped rings manufactured using steel, copper, and rubberized coating are used in engines to enable the passage of cylinder heads.
Engine gaskets and seals offer internal leakage prevention of oil, fluids, coolants, and air while enabling maximum compression. Automotive seals and gaskets are manufactured using a wide range of materials such as rubber, plastic polymer, and stainless steel. The product also uses other materials such as multi-layered steel, copper, and composites for enhanced strength and flexibility.

Industry Dynamics
Growth Driver
Fiber washers are offered by market players in a broad range of thicknesses, hardness, and colors. Vegetable fiber gasket is treated cellulose fiber material, which is permeated with protein glue and a glycerin binder to provide greater strength, flexibility, resistance to heavy pressure, and compressibility. It offers resistance to a wide range of materials such as oils, water, alcohol, grease, air, gas, gasoline, and other solvents.
Vulcanized fiber washers are hard, lightweight, durable, and chemically pure cellulose products with high tear resistance and excellent electrical properties. These products also offer greater mechanical strength, high flatness, and resistance to heat and cold.
The growing automotive industry and increasing penetration of passenger and commercial vehicles drive the growth of this market. The rising demand for modernized vehicles and rising demand from the aerospace and defense sector support the growth of the market across the globe.
The introduction of strict industrial emission regulations has increased the demand for gaskets and seals from the industrial and manufacturing sectors. The increasing industrialization, rising demand for automobiles from emerging economies, and technological advancements have also accelerated the sale of gaskets and seals.
