Oil Filter Market Growth Factors

The global oil filter market sees its main growth drivers through two factors which include rising environmental protection needs and engine optimization requirements. New government regulations about engine performance and exhaust emissions began after pollution levels reached their current worldwide level. The engine performance benefits from the oil filter because it provides cleaner oil which leads to improved combustion and reduced emissions. Consumers are becoming more aware of the performance, fuel economy and the life of the engine through oil filters. The need to address these problems has led people to use filters which have better efficiency and extended lifespan while original equipment manufacturers supply effective oil filters through their new vehicle releases.

The automotive and construction segments account for a meaningful market growth. The demand for commercial vehicles such as trucks and loaders and construction equipment is increasing because urbanization and infrastructure development are growing faster throughout the world. The global automotive oil filter market sees growth because heavy-duty applications need continuous oil changes and filter replacements which protect engines from premature failures. The automotive market sector continues to grow, with increasing demand from the developing world resulting in rapid growth in car ownership. The increasing production of motor vehicles to satisfy consumer and commercial demands has led to automotive manufacturers supplying their products with both OEM and aftermarket oil filters.

Preventive maintenance culture is one of the dominant trends driving the growth of the oil filter market, as vehicle owners are focused on extending the lifespan of their assets. The average age of the motor vehicle fleet is slowly increasing due to improvements in car design and longevity. This requires oil filters because older cars need more maintenance than later model cars and can benefit through removing sludge, debris and other contaminants from the engine oil. Consumers and fleet owners generally understand that scheduled maintenance reduces long-term repair costs and prevents breakdowns cost-effectively. Oil filter technology improves, includes synthetic oil-compatible filters, extends service intervals, and also makes the public more aware that engine designs require preventive maintenance.
