Key Takeaways
  • The flexible honeycomb core is a robust, traditional hexagonally shaped material that is available in various densities, configurations and sizes.
  • The ratio between strength and weight is high, light weight and excellent durability of the system. Aluminum, aramid, stainless steel, as well as thermoplastic are primarily used in the manufacture of flexible honeycomb cores.
  • The flexible honey-comb component serves as core material for a broad variety of applications including sandwich systems, energy absorbers, laminar flow controls and the sound attenuator.
  • However, the end use industries are being significantly affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as most of the countries have issued “stay at home guidance” i.e., lockdown. This factor is restraining the market growth in current situation. 

Material - Segment Analysis
Aluminum flexible honeycomb core segment has been Flexible Honeycomb Core primary market. A lightweight core material, aluminum honeycomb provides superior strength, corrosion and fire-resistance, energy efficiency, and effective isolation. Aluminum panels honeycomb are structures created by humans who lay a honeycomb between two thin layers to provide tension energy. Aluminum, because of its solid and light weight nature, is the most favored metal for honeycomb construction. In fact, with limited waste content, it can be easily recycled. In many industries including aviation, defense, automotive, marine and building, aluminum honeycomb has been widely accepted.

Application - Segment Analysis
Aerospace sector has been the primary market for Flexible Honeycomb Core for many years at a CAGR of 7.55%. The demand for high-strength and low-density materials becomes increasingly important with the advancement of aerospace technology. The high launch acceleration and high frequency vibrations mean that a severe mechanical condition and aerodynamic coupling are unavoidable, and therefore the specifications for aero structures are extremely high in strength and rigidity. With its high rigidity and low weight wave materials, advanced technologies of aerospace design are becoming an ever more important element. The global aerospace deal activity volumes are rising, and a greater growth rate is expected in the near future. As the sector is growing, the demand for flexible honeycomb core materials is also expected to grow during the forecast period.

Geography - Segment Analysis
APAC dominated the Flexible Honeycomb Core Market share with more than 52.36%, followed by North America and Europe. In particular developing countries in the region, including China, India and South Korea, are causing increased demand for flexible honeycomb core materials from the Asia-Pacific Region. According to the Asia-Pacific Airlines Association (AAPA), about 1,486 million passengers are flying on the regional airlines and 22 million tons of freight carry, representing nearly a third of global passenger traffic and two quarters of global air freight traffic, thus playing a major role in the constant growth of global aviation. However, up to 40% of global passenger traffic is expected to rise in 2036. According to Korea Aerospace Industries Association (KAIA), in 2018, the total market size of aerospace in Korea is $ 6.73 Billion and it is estimated to reach about $ 7.40 Billion in 2019. As, the Flexible Honeycomb Core is mainly used in the production of aerospace, may act as a growth driver to this region. Hence, the increasing demand for aircraft is expected to drive the demand for flexible honeycomb core materials in the region, during the forecast period.
