Valley Cottage, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/10/2018 -- The history of cable insulation dates way back to the late 18th century, when vulcanized rubber was used for insulation of wires to be used in high voltage circuits. It was then, in 1895, that mass impregnated paper insulated medium voltage cables became commercial for numerous applications. With advancements in technology, there were numerous other insulation materials being introduced to cope with the increasing demand for superior quality wire and cable insulation for use in high voltage applications. Furthermore, electrical wires are somewhat flexible, owing to which they require sheaths and insulation to withstand the forces of repeated abrasion and flexing. Attributing to this, heat shrink tubing and sleeves are becoming a popular alternative for insulation of cables and wires across the globe.

Heat shrink tubing and sleeves are activated when they are heated. These are most commonly used to insulate cables, wire terminals and joints, due to their slug fit and durable exterior, which protects wires against abrasions and environmental effects. Heat shrink tubing and sleeves vary in thickness, size and material depending on their application. Moreover, increasing industrialization across the globe is anticipated to further fuel the consumption of electricity, which is expected to simultaneously ramp up the demand for electrical insulation materials such as heat shrink tubing and sleeves. The market is governed by a set of tier-1 players who hold a significant share on the regional and local level.

The overall electrical insulation material market is slated to have a positive outlook in India, China, the U.S. and European countries. This can be primarily attributed to the increasing consumption of electricity in these regions. Furthermore, increasing investments towards modernization of transmission and distribution framework across developing countries are expected to further ramp up the market in the coming years. This is anticipated to create ample opportunities for manufacturers to augment their business operations in the coming years.

Heat shrink tubing and sleeves are handy for preventive repair and maintenance activities as they can be used for minor repairs in connectors and cables. The heat shrink tubing and sleeves market can be segmented on the basis of the following criteria: By type: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FPE), Perfluoroalkoxy alkane (PFA), Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE), Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK). By end use: Chemical, Automotive, Aerospace, Food and Beverages, Healthcare

Numerous developing and developed economies across the globe are making efforts for modernization and augmentation of transmission and distribution networks by improving electric transmission infrastructure. Among renewable sources of energy, this will ensure better integration into the grid, catalyzing the transition into clean energy. With such initiatives, the demand for repair and maintenance of electrical transmission lines in many countries has increased considerably, which is further anticipated to boost the demand for insulating materials such as heat shrink tubing and sleeves which help in preventive maintenance of cables and wires. Moreover, many developing nations are focusing on upgrading their ageing technology, which is anticipated to further promote the growth of the heat shrink tubing and sleeves market over the assessment period.

With increasing population and urbanization across the globe, the demand for electricity is anticipated to increase considerably in the coming years. According to a study, the demand for electricity is projected to be doubled by the end of 2060. Such factors are anticipated to drive the demand for electrical cables and wires, which is expected to subsequently surge the demand for heat shrink tubing and sleeves.
