The aircraft wheels and brakes market in Europe is expected to grow from US$ 2,003.82 million in 2021 to US$ 3,431.28 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2021 to 2028.
Surge in use of durable, lightweight, sturdy carbon brakes is bolstering the market growth in Europe. The aircraft manufacturing industry has been dependent on steel-based brakes for decades; however, in the recent years, the industry players have extensively shifted their focus toward carbon brakes. This is mainly attributed to the low weight and greater durability of carbon. The lighter weight of carbon brakes helps manufacturers in keeping the weight of aircraft models lower than those with traditional brakes; the lightweight aircraft fleets operate with greater fuel efficiency and lowered CO2 emissions. Aircraft weight and CO2 emissions are the two critical parameters of focus in the aircraft manufacturing industry. Moreover, carbon brakes facilitate cost-saving as the sturdier nature of carbon offers brakes additional strength along with an ability to operate in adverse environments. Further, carbon brakes require lesser maintenance as they can handle ~2,000 landings on average. Hence, carbon brakes are being used extensively in modern aircraft models to reduce overall operational costs, including brakes maintenance, repairing, and overhaul (MRO) costs. Carbon brakes are compatible with all modern commercial and military aircraft models, which makes them suitable for retrofitting. Thus, the escalating adoption of carbon brakes in commercial and military aircraft is fueling the aircraft wheels and brakes market growth.
The air transport sector plays an important role in economic growth and employment in many European countries. With the COVID-19 outbreak, the production and sales of aircraft wheels and brake came to a sudden halt in the most part of Europe. The collapse of demand side severely impacted the EU aerospace sector and reduced international trade, thereby putting the economies in deep crisis. The European aerospace industry began to witness airspace inefficiencies, activity delays, and declining flight counts with the initial spread of COVID-19. The global passenger volume contracted by 60.5%, and total cost of infrastructure declined by 45.4% in 2020, increasing unit costs. This reduced demand has severely impacted the regional aircraft wheels and brake market. The EU aerospace industry is anticipated to recover gradually due to a slower economic recovery and the importance of international services. As per the IATA estimates, Europe faced net loss of ~US$ 26.9 billion in 2020. In 2021, net losses are estimated to lower down to US$ 11.9 billion. However, the European aircraft manufacturing giant, Airbus, foresees faster recovery of the aviation industry and aircraft manufacturing. According to the company, the global and European aviation industry is expected to reach pre-COVID levels during 2023-2025. Owing to this, the company has been ramping up its production volumes to be capable of delivering a large number of orders. Airbus plans to produce 900 Airbus A320 family aircraft models per year by 2025, with 64 per month by 2023 and 75 units per month by 2025. The announcement of such strategies indicates a promising scenario for the growth of the manufacturers of aircraft components, including wheels and brakes.
The aircraft wheels and brakes market, by fit type, is segmented into line fit and retro fit. The retrofit segment led the market in 2020, with a larger market share. The market growth of this segment is attributed to the rising MRO services of existing aircraft fleets on a regular basis to protect wheels and brakes from corrosion. For instance, the majority of large commercial aircraft fleet requires the overhauling of wheels after every five tire changes. Lufthansa Technik, an aircraft MRO company, retrofits ~20,000 wheels on yearly basis at Frankfurt Airport; similarly, carbon brakes are overhauled on every 2,000 landings. Further, heavy commercial aircraft tires retrofit with new tires on every 120-400 landings, depending on the factors such as the total weight of aircraft, materials used in brakes and other components, and total capacity of aircraft. The abovementioned factors are subsequently providing significant growth prospects for the aircraft wheels and brakes market for the retrofit segment.
