自動車用エアバッグインフレーターの市場の世界市場規模は2024年に52億米ドルに達しました。今後、IMARC Groupは、2033年には73億米ドルに達し、2025年から2033年にかけて3.9%の成長率(CAGR)を示すと予測しています。高級車需要の増加、ライドシェアサービスの人気上昇、安全対策が不十分であるとして自動車メーカーを提訴する消費者の動向の高まりなどが、市場を後押しする主な要因となっています。
自動車用エアバッグインフレーターは、衝突時にエアバッグを膨らませるために自動車に使用される装置です。多くの場合、化学物質の混合物である固形推進剤が含まれており、点火すると急速な発熱反応を起こします。ステアリングホイール、ドアパネル、ダッシュボードに装備され、衝突を検知するセンサーによって作動します。自動車の全体的な安全システムの重要な一部として機能します。エアバッグを急速に膨張させ、乗員の衝撃を緩和し、傷害を軽減します。
急速な都市化と所得水準の上昇により、乗用車、自律走行車、高級車に対する消費者ニーズが高まっていることが、市場の成長を強化しています。さらに、ライドシェアリング・サービスの人気の高まりが、自動車用エアバッグインフレーターを含む自動車の高い安全基準の必要性を喚起しています。さらに、安全対策が不十分であるとして自動車メーカーを提訴する消費者の動向の高まりが、自動車への複数のエアバッグ搭載を促進しています。これとは別に、交通死亡事故件数の拡大を受けて運転手と同乗者の安全が重視されるようになっていることも、市場の成長を後押ししています。さらに、衝突時に乗員を救助するために、配送バン、バス、トラックなどの商用車への自動車用エアバッグインフレーターの搭載が増加していることも、市場にプラスの影響を与えています。
安全規制の強化
自動車用エアバッグインフレーターの需要を押し上げる主な要因の1つは、世界の安全規制の強化です。交通事故による死傷者を減らすため、行政機関は自動車の安全基準についてますます厳しくなっています。現在では多くの国で、すべての新車にエアバッグを搭載することに関する厳しい法律が制定されています。これは、エアバッグと事故時の重傷リスク低減を結びつける統計的証拠への直接的な反応です。厳しい安全基準が自動車メーカーに高度なエアバッグ・システムの搭載を迫っており、エアバッグインフレーター市場を押し上げています。
消費者の意識の高まり
交通安全に対する意識が高まるにつれて、消費者は自動車の安全機能をより意識するようになっています。ソーシャル・メディア・キャンペーン、消費者レビュー、自動車の安全性テストに関するメディア報道の増加により、エアバッグの重要性が消費者に認識されるようになった。その結果、自動車購入の意思決定においてコストが大きな要因となりがちな新興市場においてさえ、消費者は効率的なエアバッグインフレーターを含む先進安全機能を搭載した自動車に割高な価格を支払うことを厭わなくなっています。このような消費者需要の急増は、エアバッグインフレーター市場の成長に直接影響を与えます。
自動車生産の成長
世界の自動車市場は著しい成長を遂げており、特に新興諸国では中産階級の台頭が自動車所有の増加に寄与しています。この需要を満たすためにより多くの自動車が生産されるようになると、エアバッグのような安全機能に対するニーズも当然高まる。このような自動車生産の増加は、自動車用エアバッグインフレーターに対する直接的な需要の増大を生み、市場拡大の重要な要因となっています。
The global automotive airbag inflator market size reached USD 5.2 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 7.3 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.9% during 2025-2033. The increasing demand for luxury vehicles, rising popularity of ride-sharing services, and the growing trend of consumer lawsuits against auto manufacturers for inadequate safety measures are some of the major factors propelling the market.
An automotive airbag inflator is a device used in cars to inflate airbags during a collision. It contains a solid propellant, often a mixture of chemicals, which undergoes a rapid exothermic reaction when ignited. It can be equipped in the steering wheel, door panels, or dashboard and triggered by sensors that detect a crash. It serves as an essential part of the overall safety system of the vehicle. It provides rapid expansion of the airbag to cushion passengers and reduce injury.
The increasing consumer need for passenger, autonomous, and luxury vehicles due to rapid urbanization and inflating income levels is strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, the rising popularity of ride-sharing services is catalyzing the need for high safety standards in vehicles, including automotive airbag inflators. In addition, the growing trend of consumer lawsuits against auto manufacturers for inadequate safety measures is driving the installation of multiple airbags in vehicles. Apart from this, the increasing emphasis on driver and passenger safety on account of the expanding number of fatal road accidents is favoring the growth of the market. Furthermore, the growing installation of automotive airbag inflators in commercial vehicles, including delivery vans, buses, and trucks, to rescue the occupant in the event of a collision is influencing the market positively.
Increase in safety regulations
One of the key factors driving the demand for automotive airbag inflators is the tightening of safety regulations around the world. Governing agencies are becoming increasingly stringent about vehicle safety standards to reduce road fatalities and injuries. Many countries now have stringent laws regarding the inclusion of airbags in all new cars. This is a direct response to the statistical evidence linking airbags with reduced risk of severe injury during accidents. The stringent safety norms are compelling automobile manufacturers to integrate advanced airbag systems, thereby boosting the market for airbag inflators.
Rise in consumer awareness
With an increase in awareness about road safety, consumers are becoming more conscious of the safety features in a vehicle. Social media campaigns, consumer reviews, and increased media coverage on vehicle safety tests have educated buyers about the importance of airbags. As a result, even in emerging markets, where cost is often a major factor in car buying decisions, consumers are willing to pay a premium for vehicles equipped with advanced safety features, including efficient airbag inflators. This surge in consumer demand directly impacts the growth of the airbag inflator market.
Growing vehicle production
The global automotive market is experiencing significant growth, especially in developing countries where an emerging middle class is contributing to increased vehicle ownership. As more cars are manufactured to meet this demand, the need for safety features like airbags naturally rises. This increased vehicle production creates a direct and growing demand for automotive airbag inflators, making it a crucial factor for market expansion.
Driver Airbag
Passenger Airbag
Curtain Airbag
Knee Airbag
Pedestrian Protection Airbag
Side Airbag
Curtain airbag dominates the market
Driver airbag inflators are specially designed to protect the driver during a head-on collision. Typically located in the steering wheel, the driver airbag needs to inflate rapidly and uniformly to cushion the driver effectively. These inflators contain a solid propellant that undergoes a rapid chemical reaction upon ignition, filling the airbag instantly.
Pyrotechnic
Stored Gas
Hybrid
Pyrotechnic holds the largest share in the market
Stored gas inflators operate differently than their pyrotechnic counterparts. These inflators use a cylinder filled with compressed gas, commonly argon or nitrogen, instead of a solid propellant. When the sensors of airbag systems detect a collision, the airbag control unit sends an activation signal to release the stored gas.
Passenger Car
Commercial Vehicle
Passenger car dominates the market
Commercial vehicles include a wide range of vehicle types, such as trucks, buses, and vans, and often prioritize durability and reliability over comfort. These vehicles can be exposed to more challenging driving conditions, including long hours of operation, heavy loads, and a greater range of environmental conditions. As such, stored gas inflators are often preferred for their robustness and lower sensitivity to temperature and moisture. The focus here is more on durability and long-term reliability, given the extended service life and harsher operating conditions these vehicles can encounter.

Asia Pacific exhibits a clear dominance, accounting for the largest automotive airbag inflator market share
The market research report has also provided a comprehensive analysis of all the major regional markets, which include North America (the United States and Canada); Asia Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, Indonesia, and others); Europe (Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Russia, and others); Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, and others); and the Middle East and Africa. According to the report, Asia Pacific accounted for the largest market share.
The increasing public awareness via media campaigns on road safety represents one of the primary factors bolstering the market growth in the Asia Pacific region. Moreover, rising preferences for autonomous vehicles are contributing to the market growth in the region. Besides this, the growing number of strategic mergers and acquisitions (M&As) is influencing the market positively.
North America is estimated to witness stable growth, owing to government initiatives, product innovation, extensive research and development (R&D) activities, etc.
The leading companies are integrating sensors in vehicles that work in harmony with airbag inflators and can detect the severity of a collision, the position of seats, and whether seat belts are fastened. They are also launching advanced airbag systems that have the capability for variable inflation rates based on the crash severity, occupant size, and other factors and allow for softer or harder inflation to minimize injury and provide optimum protection. Moreover, key players are developing environment friendly automotive airbag inflators that aim to reduce the impact on the environment without compromising safety performance. They can also be incorporated with other vehicle safety systems like seatbelt pre-tensioners and active head restraints that aim to provide an overall safer environment in the event of a collision.
