Abstract
THIS REPORT:
- Provides in-depth analysis of the North American market for friction
products and materials in light vehicles, medium- and heavy-duty trucks,
aircraft and other industrial applications
- Forecasts trends and sales in the North American market for friction
products and materials through 2014, broken down by ground transportation,
aircraft/aerospace and industrial sectors
- Assesses the underlying economic issues driving the friction products and
materials business
- Analyzes social, political and regulatory issues influencing the industry
- Discusses new and potential products
- Profiles top players within the industry.
STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The goal of this report is to provide a detailed and comprehensive
multi-client study of the global market for friction products and materials in
light vehicles, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, aircraft, and other industrial
applications, as well as potential business opportunities in the future.
Greater detail, however, is provided for North America. The report covers both
original equipment (OE) markets and the aftermarket. Its objectives include a
thorough coverage of the underlying economic issues driving the friction
products and materials business, as well as assessments of new and potential
products that companies are developing. Social, political, and regulatory
issues are also covered, as are international markets. Another important
objective is to provide realistic market data and forecasts for friction
products and materials.
SCOPE OF REPORT
The scope of this report is comprehensive, covering the present status of and
future prospects for OE/aftermarket friction materials and products in North
America. As defined in this report, North America includes the United States
and Canada. The report includes diverse segments such as light vehicles,
medium- and heavy-duty trucks, the automotive aftermarket, aircraft/aerospace,
construction and other off-road equipment, and various industrial
applications. These are analyzed in detail as well as technology developments,
market conditions and opportunities, and 5-year forecasts. The role of new
technologies is reviewed in this comprehensive report. This BCC Research study
analyzes the current North America market in detail and identifies the most
promising market opportunities for the next 5 years for both OE and
aftermarket applications. The markets in Western Europe, Japan, China, India,
and other global markets are covered as well. In order to generate the
information necessary to construct a reasonable future market for friction
materials, it is necessary to undertake an examination of the advantages and
disadvantages of the various types of materials. In particular, environmental
concerns are very significant for some types of friction materials.
This report covers two types of friction materials:
- Dry friction materials, such as non-asbestos organic (NAO), semimetallic
low-metallic, and asbestos friction materials
- Wet-friction materials such as paper products
In addition to various friction materials and products, it also covers the
many issues concerning the merits and future prospects of the business,
including corporate strategies, technologies, and the means for providing
these products and service offerings. It also covers in detail the social,
political, regulatory, and economic issues that so many regard as critical to
the industry' s current state of change. The report provides a review of the
friction materials and products industry and its structure, and the many
companies involved in providing these materials and technologies. The
competitive position of the main players in the market and the strategic
options they face are also discussed, as well as such competitive factors as
marketing, distribution, and operations.
The values presented in the forecast tables represent the value of the
friction products purchased by the OE manufacturers and other industrial
companies. These measure value at the point of apparent consumption,
regardless of where the friction product was manufactured. For materials, the
values represent those paid by the friction product manufacturers. The volume
data represent the consumption of these materials by the friction product
manufacturers at the point of manufacture for these products, regardless of
where the product is sold and used. As a result, the tables representing
materials consumed and the tables representing friction products are not
comparable at the national and regional level. Consumption of these materials
and the value of the friction products are, of course, comparable at the
global level.
In this report, the term revenue is equivalent to and is used interchangeably
with the terms purchases, demand, and sales. All growth rates mentioned in the
tables and in the text are based on the compound annual growth rate (CAGR)
from 2009 through 2014. In most cases, the actual quantity or volume (in
pounds) is measured and the calculated growth rates are easy to comprehend.
Because (2009) dollar measures are used to measure revenues, these growth
rates reflect the growth in volume or real growth as well as the effects of
price changes and changes in product/service mix. Readers should also be
advised that with 2009 featuring a synchronized recession that has adversely
affected all end-use markets for friction materials, sales activity is down
significantly from 2008, and forecasts to 2014 reflect a strong cyclical
component in a recovery in addition to expected structural changes. As a
result, the growth rates may appear high because of this cyclical recovery.
INFORMATION SOURCES
The research methodology was qualitative in nature and employed a
triangulating approach, which aids validity. Initially, a comprehensive and
exhaustive search of the literature on friction materials and products was
conducted. These secondary sources included automotive and related journals
and books, trade literature, marketing literature, other product/promotional
literature, annual reports, security analyst reports, and other publications.
In a second phase, a series of semistructured interviews were conducted with
marketing executives, engineers, business unit managers, design engineers, and
other personnel at the friction materials and products companies. Other
sources included academics, technology, and materials suppliers, technical
experts, trade association officials, government officials, and consulting
companies. These were rich sources of data. Subsequent analysis of the
documents and interview notes was iterative.
