Silicone coated segment is anticipated to constitute a key market share

Based on coating types, the market is divided into neoprene coated, non-coated, silicone coated, and others. The neoprene coated segment is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period. This type of coating provides a thermal barrier on the airbags to protect the fabric from the high temperature burst associated with ignition of the gas upon deployment. On the other hand, the silicone coated segment is projected to constitute a major market share during the forecast period, as it offers high resistance to heat and pressure, which protects the airbag from damage caused by metal pieces caused by explosion of the metal canister to inflate the airbag. Moreover, silicone coated airbags are sturdy and efficient.
