  • Curtain/Side
The curtain/side segment, foreseeably the largest market, is poised for growth due to increased awareness of injury prevention in rollover scenarios.
Airbag Type:
  • Cut-And-Sewn Seam-Sealed (CS)
  • One-Piece-Woven (OPW)
The OPW segment is expected to dominate the market, driven by the focus on minimizing rollover accidents and the efficiency of OPW airbags in curtain/side applications.
Vehicle Type:
  • Passenger cars
  • LCVs
  • HCVs
Passenger cars take the lead, with the growing adoption of airbags to enhance safety and stringent governmental regulations.
Electric Vehicle:
  • BEVs
  • PHEVs/FCEVs
BEVs demonstrate the highest growth rate, supported by global initiatives to reduce automotive emissions, driving the demand for silicone-coated airbags.
Demographic Region:
  • Asia Pacific
  • Europe
  • North America
  • Rest of the World
Asia Pacific is set to dominate, driven by increased demand, cost-effectiveness, and regional optimization by airbag firms.
