The automotive brake pad market is expected to grow from US$ 2,580.57 million in 2021 to US$ 3,342.58 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% during the period of 2021 to 2028.
Brake pads create friction between the caliper and disc, which helps stop the car when pressed against the brake disc. The absence of brake pads extends the braking distance, and heat from the friction won't disperse correctly, which could cause the whole braking system to overheat and lead to complete brake failure. Thus, brake pads are one of the crucial components among the disc braking system in automotive parts. Therefore, many brake pad manufacturers are entering this lucrative business. Car manufacturers are increasingly demanding brake pads that last the car's lifetime.
Therefore, brake pad manufacturers are focused on making pads that last longer while also catering to stringent quality and environmental requirements. For instance, in February 2021, KB Autosys, a Korean brake pad supplier, had planned to invest US$ 38 million in a new west Georgia factory by setting up a new plant in Meriwether County. Further, with an increasing focus on health, safety, and the environment, disc brake pad manufacturers (compounders) are looking for alternatives to traditional raw materials, such as copper and other materials that give rise to health and safety issues.

Speak to AnalystImpact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Automotive brake pad Market
In 2020, due to the restriction on the manufacturing and the proclaimed lockdowns, vendors in the brake pad sector worldwide were being severely hampered, putting global automobile brake pad makers at a deficit. As governments across the world have imposed lockdowns in first half of 2020, several automotive brake pad manufacturers' demand and supply activities experienced significant drop. From the beginning of the 2021, the automotive industry started to regain its momentum and with significant space due to increasing demand of passenger vehicles from emerging countries. However, with growing automotive industry the brake pad manufacturers is regaining its pace with the resumption of operations at manufacturing units, which would boost the uptake of automotive brake pads in the coming years.
Overall, In 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak acted as a significant limitation on the automobile parts and components business, as trade restrictions and consumption disrupted supply chains fell due to government lockdowns around the world. However, during the projected period of 2021–2028, government incentives, expanding regional demand, and the easy availability of raw materials are expected to boost the automotive brake pad market expansion. For instance, India's Automobile Mission Plan FAME-II prioritizes government assistance to the country's burgeoning automotive and component manufacturing industries. Automobile parts and accessories manufacturing businesses have undergone extensive renovation in recent years, resulting in the emergence of a highly competitive industry.

Growing Uptake of Electric Vehicles Fuels Brake Pad Usage, Creates Lucrative Opportunity for Automotive Brake Pad Market
The growing demand for low emission vehicles and supportive government regulations, such as subsidies & tax rebates for adopting zero-emission vehicles, is a potential trend, driving the automotive brake pad market. As per the IEA data, in 2020, the global electric car stock peaked the 10 million vehicles sales, a 43% increase from 2019.
In electric vehicles, a regenerative-hydraulic hybrid braking system is used. In the event of applying the brake, regenerative braking torque offers the same deceleration rate as available in conventional vehicles. Further, the hydraulic braking torque is applied. Electric vehicles are silent in operation, wherein a traditional brake pad creates noise, making it unfavorable for use in electric vehicles. As per the Europe commission, new emission targets set for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles for 2020 were a 37.5% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions for new cars and a 31% emission decrease for light commercial vehicles, such as vans, by 2030.
