According to the research report titled ‘Global Automotive Gasket & Seals Market Size study with COVID-19 Impact, by Product (Gasket (Metallic, Non-Metallic), Seals (O-Ring, Rotary, Mechanical, and more)), by Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, Commercial Vehicles) and Regional Forecasts 2020-2026’, available with Market Study Report, global automotive gasket and seals market was worth USD 11,553 million in 2019 and is expected to witness a growth rate of 7% over 2020-2026.
 

Seals and automotive gaskets are used to prevent leakage of gas and fluid in vehicles by bridging the gap between the automobile’s elements. The seals prevent the lubricants from escaping the bearings and acts a barrier preventing the entry of contaminants and dust in the vehicle.
 

On account of technological advancements, seals and gaskets have reduced the need of maintenance and repair, thereby enhancing the standard lifespan of several automotive elements as well as improving fuel economy. The above mentioned factors are likely to have a positive impact on the global automotive gasket and seals market expansion.
 

Rising inclination towards electric and commercial vehicles, as well as the effects of emissions on environment and health are a few factors which account for the high CAGR of the global market over the anticipated timeline.
 

According to the Edison Electric Institute, the sales of global electric vehicles were around 312,000 in first quarter of 2018, which is an increase of 58% compared to the first quarter of 2017. The number of electric vehicles on the road in the United States were around 6,00,000 in 2017 which popped up to 8,90,000 in 2018. This, in turn, will boost the demand for automotive gasket and seals in countries adopting EVs.
