Aircraft Seat Actuation System Market by Type (Electro-Mechanical, Hydraulic, Pneumatic), Seat Class (Business, Economy, Premium Economy, First), Component (Hardware, Software), End User (OEM, Aftermarket), Aircraft Type - Global Forecast to 2022
[123 Pages Report] The aircraft seat actuation system market is projected to reach USD 730.7 million by 2022, at a CAGR of 7.58% from 2017 to 2022. The base year considered for the study is 2016, and the forecast period is from 2017 to 2022. Increase in aircraft orders, rising demand for lightweight seats, and growth in premium air travel are projected to drive the aircraft seat actuation system market in the coming years. However, backlog of aircraft deliveries is major challenge which can affect the growth of aircraft seat actuation system market.
Business class segment of the aircraft seat actuation system market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022
Based on seat class, the business class segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The increase in aircraft orders and demand for enhanced passenger experience, especially in long-haul aircraft, are among the key factors driving this segment of the market.
The wide body aircraft segment of the aircraft seat actuation system market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022
Based on aircraft type, the wide body aircraft segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The increase in orders for wide body aircraft due to the increased demand for long-haul travel is one of the key factors driving this segment of the aircraft seat actuation system market.
The aircraft seat actuation system market in Middle East is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period and Europe is expected to lead this market
The aircraft seat actuation system market in the Middle East is growing at the highest rate due to the presence of many profitable airlines, namely, Etihad Airways (UAE), Emirates (UAE), and Turkish Airlines (Turkey) in the region. The growing air passenger traffic coupled with the increase in demand for premium seating are the main drivers expected to propel the growth of the aircraft seat actuation system market in the Middle East during the forecast period. The market in this region is mostly fueled by the aftermarket activities as the maintenance and retrofitting market is high.
Market Dynamics: Aircraft Seat Actuation System Market
Technological advancements in aircraft seat actuation systems
Technological advancements in the field of aircraft seat actuation systems have led to the development of lightweight, electric control motion, and self-adjusting aircraft seat actuators. Manufacturers of aircraft seat actuation systems, such as Crane (US), are offering sophisticated actuation systems with integrated seat adjustment features. For instance, in 2017, Crane (US) launched the mcX Premium Seat Modular Control System at the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Germany. This system incorporates a smart module architecture that allows the operation of individual modules from a centralized controller. It is primarily used for first class and business class seats. The implementation of actuation systems reduces the weight of aircraft seats, and subsequently, the after-sales cost of aircraft seats, thereby driving the growth of the aircraft seat actuation system market. Various airlines, including Turkish Airlines, are involved in retrofitting of aircraft seats installed with technologically-advanced seat actuation systems to improve flying experience for passengers.
Emergence of new aircraft manufacturers
Emergence of new aircraft manufacturers in Asia Pacific and Latin America is one of the key opportunities for growth of the aircraft seat actuation system market in the near future. Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC) and Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation are a few of the aircraft manufacturing companies in the Asia Pacific region. Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation is engaged in the production of regional aircraft, while COMAC manufactures commercial, business, and regional aircraft. Thus, the emergence of new aircraft manufacturers is projected to influence the demand for aircraft seat actuation systems. For instance, in September 2017, COMAC secured a total order of 730 aircraft from 29 customers. This is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities to manufacturers of aircraft seats, thereby propelling the demand for actuation systems during the forecast period
