Aircraft MRO Market Size, Share Global Analysis Report, , 2021 – 2026

Industry Insights

[197+ Pages Report] As per the Facts and Factors report, the global aircraft MRO market was estimated to be USD 49.65 Billion in 2020 and is further expected to reach up to USD 65.02 Billion by the end of 2026, increasing at a CAGR of around 4.6% from 2021 to 2026.

Market Overview

MRO - Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul, in aviation, refers to the process of integrating services, performing repairs, and evaluating the aircraft's components. It covers all maintenance tasks that ensure the airworthiness and safety of the aircraft. The Aviation MRO is critical in ensuring the product's quality, dependability, and availability, as well as improving the customer experience. It is widely used in the aviation industry, which includes commercial, military, and freight flights.

Almost every country's economic progress has been hindered by the COVID-19 epidemic. This economic crisis has had a significant influence on the aviation sector. Furthermore, countries' harmed economic progress has resulted in the closure of minor aviation businesses in 2020. All major nations in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America have put tight limitations on commercial operations, as well as goods and people movement, due to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic. All of these constraints are limiting both supply and demand for aircraft maintenance services, limiting the global aviation MRO market's revenue growth.

Industry Growth Factor

The major drivers driving market expansion include the growing demand for effective aircraft maintenance and modernization, as well as increased air traffic. The advancement of technologies in the aviation MRO business, like the advent of the IoT, IoT wearable and robots, augmented reality and artificial intelligence (AI), is also contributing to the market's expansion. Furthermore, the requirement for rapid upgrades to current avionics is positively impacting the market growth. The massive expenditure required for MRO operations, on the other hand, is likely to limit the market's growth.

Numerous engine manufacturing projects are projected to gain popularity as a result of a rise in aircraft modernization, environmental concerns, and regulations and laws for the replacement of aging fleets. Many engine manufacturers are concentrating on producing powerful and affordable engines for new fleets. Because the dynamics of the MRO market in commercial aviation are changing at a rapid pace, the industry's long-term viability necessitates the quick adoption of solutions to address the dynamism. Another factor fuelling the growth of the worldwide MRO aviation business is straight-line regulatory rules on aircraft and the necessity for the frequent repair of engine components and engines.
