Global Flexible Tube Market is valued at approximately USD 1.8 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 5.1% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Flexible tubes are a specific kind of tubing designed to have the ability to bend and flex easily, making them suitable for applications where rigid tubing is not appropriate. These tubes are manufactured using a variety of materials including rubber, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), silicone, polyurethane, and other similar substances. The Flexible Tube Market is witnessing significant growth due to increasing demand from various industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, food & beverage, plumbing, and industrial sectors. The healthcare industry is also driving the demand for flexible tubes made from materials such as PVC, silicone, and polyurethane, primarily for their flexibility, biocompatibility, and fluid transportation capabilities.
The automotive industry’s increasing demand for flexible tubes has significantly contributed to the market’s growth. These tubes are utilized in automotive applications to transfer fluids such as fuel, coolant, or brake fluid. Thus, the growing automotive market is anticipated to create demand for the market. According to Statista, the global automotive manufacturing market was valued at about USD 2.86 trillion in 2021. The market is projected to grow to some USD 2.95 trillion in 2022. Additionally, the increase in demand for flexible tubes made from bio-based material and demand for eco-friendly solutions provide lucrative opportunities for the market. However, high risk of material weakening and failure stifling market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
