Automotive Carbon Ceramic Brakes Market Key Profiles, Driver, Outlook & Competitive Landscape To 2026
Automotive carbon
ceramic brakes or ceramic composite brakes are made up of ceramic fibers,
filler material and bonding agents. Moreover, these brakes may have small
amounts of copper fibers. These kind of brakes are mostly used in high
performance vehicles.
Advantages of automotive
carbon ceramic brakes over other brakes such as iron or steel brakes are
fueling growth of the global automotive carbon ceramic brakes market.
Automotive carbon ceramic brakes provides great braking performance over the
other brakes due to its ceramic properties. Properties of ceramic compounds
helps to reduce heat and provide faster recovery after braking which helps the
vehicle to maintain a strong performance even after repeated braking. Moreover,
compared to other brakes automotive carbon ceramic brakes produce less amount
of dust which is light in color and cannot stick to the wheels of the vehicle.
In comparison with other brakes, automotive carbon ceramic brakes are durable,
reliable, light weight and prevent corrosion. Automotive carbon ceramic brakes
offer outstanding performance in both wet and dry conditions.
The increasing demand of
luxurious as well as high performance vehicles from brands such as Lamborghini,
Ferrari, Audi, BMW, Mercedes, GM Corvette, Porsche, Bugatti, and Bentley among
others is propelling growth of the automotive carbon ceramic brakes market. The
automotive carbon ceramic brakes are preferred by various manufacturers of
luxurious and high performance vehicles owing to the properties that carbon
ceramic possess. Suppliers of carbon ceramic brakes include Brembo S.p.A, SGL
Carbon, MAT Foundry Group Ltd., AKEBONO BRAKE INDUSTRY CO., LTD., Carbon
Ceramics Ltd, Rotora, Surface Transforms PLC, Fusion Brakes, LLC, EBC Brakes,
RB Performance Brakes, Wilwood Engineering, Inc. and Baer Brakes. For instance,
Brembo SGL Carbon Ceramic Brakes S.p.A. is a leading producer of carbon ceramic
discs, and supplies these components to reputed brands such as Ferrari,
Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Audi, Bugatti, Aston Martin, Corvette, Nissan, Lexus,
Bentley, Lamborghini, McLaren, Volkswagen, Porsche, and AMG.
Moreover, the expanding
automotive industry is expected to propel growth of the automotive carbon
ceramic brakes market over the forecast period. Manufacturers are increasing
investments in the automobile industry in order to improve performance,
reliability, durability, and safety of the vehicle by introducing new features.
The braking system of the vehicle is highly related to the reliability and
safety of the vehicle. Since brakes comprise an important role in the
performance of the vehicle, growth of the automotive industry is expected to
drive demand for automotive carbon ceramic brakes. Automotive carbon
ceramic brakes are also used in motorcycles, passenger cars, light commercial
vehicle (LCV), and heavy commercial vehicles (HCV). According to the State Of
The U.S. Automotive Industry report, 2018, and the American Automotive Policy
Council (AAPC) report in August 2018, auto sales in the U.S. have increased by
more than 67% since the 2009 (from 10.4 million to 17.4 million). Projected
sale of cars will exceed 16.8 million vehicles per year through 2025. U.S. auto
production has more than doubled during the same period (from 5.6 million
vehicles in 2009, to 11.3 million vehicles in 2017). U.S. auto production is
expected to exceed 11.5 million vehicles per year through 2021, and reach 12
million by 2025.
Furthermore, increasing
disposable income has led to increase in the sales of luxury and sports cars,
which in turn is estimated to drive growth of the automotive carbon ceramic
brakes market.
On the basis of region,
automotive carbon ceramic brakes market is segmented into North America,
Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa. Europe automotive
carbon ceramic market contributed the largest market share, owing to growth in
the automotive market. For instance, in 2018, Germany based car brands,
Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche recorded the following sales
worldwide 1) Volkswagen produced 5,823,400 cars in 2015, and in 2019 the
production reach 6,244,900 cars. 2) BMW produced 1,905,234 cars in 2015, and in
2019 the production reached 2,125,026 cars. 3) Mercedes Benz produced 1,871,511
cars in 2015, and in 2019 the production reached 2,310,185 cars. 4) Porsche
produced 225,100 cars in 2015, and in 2019 the production reached 256,255 cars.
