Global aircraft mounting market was worth USD 606.0 million in 2019. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 7.8%) between 2020 and 2027. The forecast period will see an increase in demand for the aircraft mounts due to safety and comfort. Market growth will also be driven by the increased production and repair of commercial aircraft.
Mounts will be in demand as a result of the increase in military-grade aircraft, including helicopters, choppers, jets and fighter aircraft, which are all designed to strengthen the air force. The market will likely grow if high-grade machinery is installed in specialty aircraft.
The U.S. commercial aircraft segment has emerged as the most popular type of mount installation. Due to the well-established aviation industry and the increase in domestic and international passengers, the market will likely grow.
The demand for military-grade aircraft careers, specialty fighter jets and choppers will increase as a result of the growing military services around the world. Innovating in specialty war equipment for war aircraft requires customized mounts. They are expected to have a positive impact on the market.
The rise of the tourism industry has fueled an increase in international travel. This has led to an increase in aviation sector. The preference of passengers for comfort and safety on flights has driven airlines to offer enhanced services, which is supporting market growth.
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to severely impact the global economy as well as the aviation and tourism industries. The aerospace manufacturing industry has stopped production of many of its orders. It is expected to resume operations in the second quarter of this year. The market is expected to gain momentum in the coming period.
In 2019, the engine mounts segment of the market for aircraft mounts accounted for 52.4% of the total revenue. This is expected to rise at a CAGR 7.9% through 2027. The demand will be supported by an increase in production of military- and commercial-grade aircraft, in light of increased air traffic and defense activities in major economies.
These mounts will be in high demand due to their ability to perform scheduled maintenance, replacement of aircraft components and scheduled service. The engine mounts can lose their stability over time due to vibrations in the compartments. Therefore, it is important that they are replaced periodically.
The essential components of an aircraft's suspensions are designed to absorb shocks from moving parts. These suspensions are subject to a heavy load, which together with the shock-absorbing mechanism, can cause them to lose some durability after a certain period of use. This will lead to high demand for replacement of the aircraft.
For smooth operation of the movable parts, vibration and shock isolation components are added to aircraft suspensions. Market growth is expected to be supported by the rising demand for shockproof mechanisms and the introduction of advanced shock absorption components.
The commercial aircraft segment was the most significant user of mounts in 2019, accounting for a revenue share exceeding 60%. It is expected to grow at an 8.8% CAGR over the forecast period. In the coming years, the segment will likely see a rise in international passengers and a greater need for safety and comfort.
Globally, major airlines are focused on providing comfortable flights with modern equipment and enhanced storage. Therefore, aerospace manufacturers are involved in improving mounts. Major manufacturers like Boeing and Airbus are covering up pending orders for commercial airplanes, which is likely to have a positive impact on the market.
The air force divisions have seen a rise in demand for special fighter planes, choppers and jets as a result of the strengthening of major economies' defense systems. Market growth is expected to be supported by the growing demand for customized and specialty mounts in military aircraft.
The mounts were consumed mainly by general aviation because of the installation of premium and specialty components. This segment includes chartered aircraft, private jets, premium aircraft and helicopters. In the near future, the market will see a rise in private jets.
In 2019, external mounts had a 85.8% revenue share and will continue to dominate the market for the foreseeable future. External mounts can be used to enhance passenger cabins, storage spaces, and seating structures in general and commercial aviation.
External mounts include pedestal mounts as well as multiplane, shock and platform mounts. Sandwich mounts can also be included. Most external mounts installed in commercial segments are made possible by the provision of storage space and comfort for passengers.
Because the internal mounts are designed to protect the engine and other components, the segment will grow in the future. The internal mounts can also be used to reduce vibrations and shock during take-off or landing.
The industry's growth is likely to be supported by safety measures for critical components of airplanes. Because of their importance for planes' smooth operation, the internal mounts require frequent servicing and replacement. The segment will also increase with the rise in commercial flights.
Replacement end use of aircraft mounts was the largest revenue share at 73.2% in 2019. It is expected to rise at a CAGR 8.9% during the forecast period. The market is expected to grow in repair and maintenance of commercial airplanes to ensure passenger safety over the forecast period.
The market will be upscaled by the regular maintenance of military-grade and commercial aircraft. The aircraft's engine mounts and suspension block need to be replaced every other year. This will impact the cost of replacing such mounts.
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) of mounting products are involved in manufacturing applications because the mounts can be pre-installed on the craft. The demand for these products will rise with the increase in production of all types of aircraft.
Major economies and airlines will likely place orders for fighter jets, military-grade choppers and large commercial planes. This will support the production of new aircraft and influence the original equipment manufacturer's product demand. In addition, private and premium aircraft orders will increase growth.
North America was the dominant market with a 45.3% revenue share in 2019. Its well-established aviation industry, as well as cheap air travel and the presence of many airline service providers in the region, has fueled the market's growth. The region's defense sector, which is a major part of the U.S., has also boosted its demand.
In 2019, the United States was the region's largest consumer and will continue to be the dominant market for the forecast period. Market growth has been supported by the increase in foreign tourists and the established tourism sector. The market expansion has been hampered by the COVID-19 crisis in the country.
In 2019, the revenue share for Europe's external mounts was 86.5%. This market is expected to grow until 2027. Market growth will be facilitated by the presence of major aircraft manufacturers in the region as well as enhanced manufacturing capabilities in Germany, France, Spain and the U.K.
The Asia Pacific aerospace market is expected to see an increase in demand due to the increasing number of commercial flights to and from Asia. International visitors are expected to be attracted to the region's growing tourism industry, especially in South East Asia. This is likely to increase demand for commercial aircraft and positively impact the market's growth.
The market competition is determined by product quality, durability and price. Players are also focusing on mounting components that have a high load-bearing capability and increased durability. The installation and design structure are the main focus of players. These players also invest heavily in R&D for raw materials. Composites and alloys are becoming more popular for mounting production, which helps reduce the aircraft's overall weight. For market competition, mergers and acquisitions as well as third-party manufacturing are also considered. The market leader in aircraft mounts is:
