Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025-2037

Aircraft De-icing Market size was over USD 1.21 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 2.23 billion by 2037, growing at around 4.8% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of aircraft de-icing is assessed at USD 1.26 billion.

The global market growth for aircraft de-icing is increasing rapidly owing to the growth in air passenger traffic as well as subsequent demand for modernization, new aircrafts and expansion of existing airports for the need of safe take-off and landing operations during wintry weather conditions. Additionally, there are various types of aircraft de-icing solutions such as electrical heating, weeping wing technology, alloys de-icing technology, ultrasound technology and others. Advancements as well as innovations in these technologies are anticipated to lead to further growth of the market in the upcoming years.

 

Growth Drivers

  • Growing need for advanced technology in order to meet the demands

In the present world scenario, it has become very important for the airports to be technologically advanced as well as equipped enough so as to serve the increasing air traffic without any cancellations or interruptions. This has led to several airports bringing in new technologies into airports which are ultimately estimated to lead to the growth of market in the upcoming years owing to the rising demand for advanced technology. 

  • Increase in the number of crashes owing to snowy weather conditions

Aircraft de-icing has become an important procedure for the aircraft safety owing to the accumulation of ice which is predicted to possibly hamper the capability of a plane to fly efficiently as well as safely. Additionally, the increasing number of aircrafts is one of the principal motivator for the development of this market. As the number of uncertainties caused by weather conditions is growing rapidly, the market for aircraft de-icing is projected to grow in the upcoming years.

Challenges

  • De-icing technique can cause airplane controllability issues

Airplane de-icing can leave residue in critical areas such as wings or stabilizers. During suitable weather conditions, the residue can expand or rehydrate and form into a gel-like substance that expands to many times the original size. The gel can freeze during flight and if located in the component of flight control, movements for control surface may be restricted which can lead to issues in controllability of airplanes. This factor is predicted to act as a restrain which can limit the growth of market in upcoming years.

Aircraft De-icing Segmentation

The aircraft de-icing market is segmented by fluid into type I, type II, type III and type IV, out of which, type I segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share as type I fluids are highly used for removing the snow, ice or any frost layers from the critical surfaces of aircraft such as fuselage, engine inlets and others. This fluid is generally applied before type II, III and IV, whereas the latter three provide longer ice protection and more holdover time.

Our in-depth analysis of the global market includes the following segments:

           By Equipment

  • De-icing trucks

  • Sweepers

  • Others

             By Fluid

  • Type I

  • Type II
