Growth Drivers

  • Increasing Capacity for Power Generation - Heat shrink tubing is produced in two steps. Standard extrusion is the initial phase, and then the tubing is subjected to a secondary procedure that allows it to shrink when heated. The details of this secondary procedure are kept private, but it involves using force and heat to increase the tubing's diameter. The tube is brought down to room temperature while it is still inflated. The tubing will contract to its initial size if it is stiff. Increasing transmission capacity at a reasonable cost can be achieved by upgrading the power lines and substations along current corridors. Reconducting existing lines can boost transmission capacity by utilizing materials like composite conductors, which have a higher current-carrying capacity.

  • Increasing Demand in IT & Telecom Sector in the Upcoming Years - Heat shrink tubes will be used to unprecedented levels in the electrical, IT, and telecom sectors in the upcoming years. Significant advancements in this field are being made with an eye on improving data center and telecommunication security. Heat shrink tubing can be used to dress cable assemblies, providing telecom and IT experts with more alternatives for managing and routing intricate wire networks. The industry will continue to be driven by an increase in the need for insulation and sealing to safeguard the wires in telecommunication connectors. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of technologies such as IoT & cloud computing in the IT & telecom sector is expected to drive market growth as well. By 2030, approximately 29 billion Internet of Things devices are expected to be on the market worldwide, compared with 15.3 billion in 2020.

Challenges

  • Price Sensitivity – Heat shrink tubing kits are a relatively low cost product and this might make it difficult for manufacturers and distributors to differentiate themselves from competitors on price alone. This can lead to price wars which can erode profit margins. Therefore, it is predicted to hamper the heat shrink tubing kit market growth in the upcoming period.

  • Lack of Awareness about the Heat Shrink Tubing Kit Benefits is Set to Pose a Limitation on the Market Growth in the Upcoming Timeframe.

  • Environmental Concerns Associated with Heat Shrink Tubing are Poised to Restrict the Market Expansion in the Forecast Period.
