Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Microcellular Aluminum Foam market size was valued at US$ 1149 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1710 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.8% during review period.

In this report, we will assess the current U.S. tariff framework alongside international policy adaptations, analyzing their effects on competitive market structures, regional economic dynamics, and supply chain resilience.

Microcellular Aluminum Foam is a lightweight metal material characterized by a uniform distribution of small, closed or open pores (typically 1–1000 µm) within an aluminum matrix. These foams combine the strength and conductivity of aluminum with the shock absorption and insulation properties of a foam, making them ideal for various high-performance applications.

Regional market distribution

China: The market size in 2023 accounts for about one-third of the world, and is expected to increase by nearly 50% in 2030, mainly benefiting from the demand for new energy vehicles, green buildings and aerospace.

North America and Europe: The combined share in 2023 exceeds 50%, but due to the impact of tariff policies, the growth rate will slow down in the future, and the share is expected to decline until 2030.

Southeast Asia: The export volume in 2025 increased by 240% year-on-year, becoming an emerging growth pole, mainly used in scenarios such as photovoltaic bracket seismic isolation layer.



Core driving factors

New energy vehicles: Lightweight demand for battery pack shells, body structural parts, etc. drives the market size

Aerospace: The mass production of domestic large aircraft C919 drives demand

Building energy conservation: The upgrade of green building standards promotes the application of sound insulation and heat insulation materials



Technological innovation

New foaming processes (such as titanium hydride technology) increase the porosity to more than 85% and reduce energy consumption by 30%.

3D printing gradient pore structure materials achieve a breakthrough in compressive strength of 25MPa, promoting high-end applications



Risk factors

Raw material fluctuations: Aluminum prices fluctuated by 28% in 2024, causing gross profit margins of small and medium-sized enterprises to fluctuate by more than 10%.

Technical barriers: High-end products (such as aviation-grade closed-cell aluminum foam) rely on imports, with an import dependence of 40% in 2025, which may rise to 55% if R&D investment is insufficient.



Future outlook

Supply and demand balance: Demand is expected to be 420,000 tons in 2025 and supply is 380,000 tons. The gap depends on inventory adjustment, and the tight balance will continue until the mass production of new technologies in 2027.

Price trend: The price of aluminum foam for construction will drop from 48,000 yuan/ton in 2023 to 36,000 yuan/ton in 2025, while high-strength products for new energy vehicles will remain at a high level of 80,000-120,000 yuan/ton.
