The brake friction market is mainly dependent on aftermarket sales of these products. Brake friction products need to be changed periodically. This period varies with the usage of a vehicle and application of brakes. Hence, the growth of the brake friction market also depends on the global vehicle parc. As per OICA, total vehicle sales, which include passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, increased from 91,458,490 units in 2016 to 92,654,055 units in 2018. Increased vehicle sales have increased the vehicle parc in the last few years substantially. The cumulative global vehicle part, which includes PC, LCV, and HCV segments, has increased from 8,59,769.7 thousand units in 2018 to 9,42,911.2 thousand units in 2020. The increase in vehicle parc has fueled the brake friction market globally.
