Through 2023, demand for gaskets and seals in China is projected to grow 4.9% annually to $20.9 billion. Machinery is the largest market for gaskets and seals. Through 2023, gains will be driven by increased production of smart products – including automated types and robots – that are higher value and therefore require higher value gaskets and seals that will prevent the machinery from breaking down.
The electrical and electronic equipment market is expected to expand more quickly and offer opportunities similar to the larger machinery market as the manufacture of more technologically advanced products increases, driving demand for higher value gaskets and seals.
