Aerosol Caps Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Application (Personal Care, Household, Automotive & Industrial, Foods, Paints, Medical, Others) By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2018 - 2025

Industry Insights

The global aerosol caps market size was estimated at USD 291.9 million in 2016. The increasing demand for caps on account of the rising utilization of the product in application industries coupled with high performance efficiency resulting in cost-effectiveness is expected to drive the market.

The market is expected to grow on account of the increasing demand in the application & packaging industries. The U.S. and Germany, being the major markets for the products such as deodorants, hair sprays, shaving gels, insecticides, air fresheners, and furniture polish, the demand for caps are expected to witness rapid growth in the two countries.

Aerosols are widely used in personal care, automotive, household, and medical applications as they offer numerous benefits including zero leakage, resource efficiency, cost-effectiveness, recyclability, and high aesthetic value. The growth of these application industries is expected to have a resultant effect on product demand over the forecast period.

Plastic polymers such as polypropylene and polyethylene are widely used raw materials in the manufacturing of caps. The application of technically advanced catalysts for the development of new polymer compounds and improved molding technologies to achieve minimum cycle time is expected to have a positive impact on growth.

Plastic caps dominate the overall industry on account of their innovative designs, shapes, and colors. Increasing innovations in plastic product development technologies have enhanced the manufacturing efficiency for caps, leading to the growing demand for products in application industries.

The product is manufactured using different molding processes and techniques. The manufacturing procedures include multiple activities such as molding, folding & scoring, and providing improved capping, which in turn has led to the demand for plastic caps in manufacturing aerosol products.

Application Insights

Increasing demand for spray paints in enhancing vehicle appearance and maintenance is expected to have a positive impact on growth. High demand for aerosol technology in cleaning, detailing, and lubricating applications is expected to bolster growth over the forecast period.

The demand for the product owing to the introduction of new product formats, gender-specific personal care products, and increasing use of aerosol propellants in hair sprays, styling mousses, and deodorants & antiperspirants is expected to aid aerosol caps market growth in developing economies.

The rising use of aerosols in various food products including whipped cream, chocolate, ketchup, mayonnaise, vinegar, and olive oil is expected to fuel demand over the forecast period. This in turn is expected to drive the demand in the food industry.

Increasing applications of household aerosol products such as insecticides, air fresheners, and bathroom cleaner have significantly contributed to industry growth. In addition, spray cans are used in automotive paints, architectural coatings, primers, and graffiti removers, which is expected to aid demand over the forecast period.

Regional Insights

The industry growth is primarily driven by the increasing applications of spray products in different industries. Europe is the largest consumer of these products followed by North America. The demand for hair sprays and skincare products in Europe is expected to drive the demand for cans, which in turn is expected to drive the demand for aerosol caps over the forecast period.

The U.S. accounted for the largest share of the overall industry in 2016, accounting for 24.4% of the overall revenue. The presence of abundant raw material manufacturers coupled with a high manufacturing volume of medicines and vehicles is expected to bolster demand for aerosol technology.

Automotive and personal care industries in the Asia Pacific, particularly in India and China, are experiencing high growth, which in turn, is expected to drive the demand for aerosol products. The increasing per capita personal care spending, in addition to the increased household expenditure, is the major driving factor for the market in the region.

Argentina and Brazil are key packaging countries in Central & South America. The establishment of major automotive manufacturing facilities owing to its strategic geographical location coupled with low infrastructure and labor costs in the region is driving industry, thereby increasing the demand over the forecast period.

Aerosol Caps Market Share Insights 

The market is highly competitive in terms of product and price with the presence of a large number of leading small & independent producers contributing by adding innovative designs and colors to caps. The players in the market are involved in the manufacturing of different components in addition to caps & closures for vertical integration.

The companies consider North America, Europe & Asia Pacific as potential markets owing to the available manufacturing facilities of aerosol products in the region. However, domestic manufacturer of caps satisfies the majority of the market demand. The industry is influenced by the cost & availability of raw materials, and varieties of molds available to the companies.
