Market Insights
The aerospace & defense EMI shielding market is anticipated to grow at a promising CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period to reach US$ 1.1 Billion in 2028.
Aerospace and defense EMI shielding refers to the application of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding solutions in the aerospace and defense industries to protect critical electronic systems and components from the harmful effects of electromagnetic interference. In aerospace and defense applications, sensitive electronic equipment and communication systems play a crucial role in various aspects, including military operations, avionics, satellite communication, radar systems, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These systems are susceptible to both internal and external sources of electromagnetic interference that can cause disruptions, malfunctions, or data corruption. EMI shielding in the aerospace and defense sectors involves the use of conductive or magnetic materials to create barriers or enclosures that prevent unwanted electromagnetic radiation from interfering with the proper functioning of electronic components. The shielding materials and structures are designed to either absorb, reflect, or redirect electromagnetic waves away from sensitive areas, thereby mitigating interference.
Aerospace and defense EMI shielding is critical because any interference in these sectors can have severe consequences, ranging from communication disruptions and equipment malfunctions to compromised safety and security. Properly implemented EMI shielding ensures the reliable operation of electronic systems, enhances mission success, and safeguards sensitive information and operations.
Major factors such as the increasing use of electronics in aerospace & defense, the growing demand for secure communication, especially in the defense sector, and investment in military modernization programs are expected to drive the market during the forecast period. In addition to that, continuous investment in the aerospace and defense sectors worldwide, ongoing developments in aerospace and defense technologies, and advancements in EMI shielding technologies are further expected to fuel market growth during the forecast period. The need for secure, reliable, and high-performance electronic systems in aerospace and defense applications is driving the demand for effective EMI shielding solutions, leading to the growth of the market.

Aircraft Type
The aerospace & defense EMI shielding market is segmented into commercial aircraft, military aircraft, regional aircraft, general aviation, helicopters, UAVs, space, and defense. Commercial aircraft is expected to remain the growth engine of the global aerospace & defense EMI shielding market during the forecast period due to increasing commercial aircraft deliveries to support rising passenger and freight traffic and rising commercial aircraft fleet size across regions, which are the key factors propelling the demand for EMI shielding in the segment. In addition to that, commercial aircraft rely heavily on advanced avionics and flight control systems, including navigation, communication, and flight management systems. These systems require effective EMI shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference, ensuring safe and efficient flight operations. Also, the aviation industry has been increasingly adopting lightweight composite materials in aircraft construction to improve fuel efficiency and reduce weight. However, these materials can be more susceptible to electromagnetic interference, necessitating the use of EMI shielding solutions.
Application Type
The global aerospace & defense EMI shielding market is segmented into equipment shielding, structural shielding, and bonding. Equipment shielding is expected to remain the most dominant application segment of the aerospace & defense EMI shielding market during the forecast period, propelled by increasing shielding requirements for electrical equipment, avionics, and aircraft wiring and increasing usage of electronic devices and digital systems in avionic systems.
Product Type
The aerospace & defense EMI shielding market is segmented as conductive coatings & paints, laminates, tapes & foils, cable overbraids, conductive gaskets, and others. Gaskets are expected to remain the dominant product type in the global aerospace & defense EMI shielding market during the forecast period. EMI gaskets provide reliable and effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding by creating a continuous conductive path between mating surfaces or joints. They effectively block or absorb electromagnetic waves, preventing interference from affecting sensitive electronic systems. In aerospace and defense, EMI gaskets are used in critical applications such as avionics, communication systems, navigation equipment, and electronic warfare systems. The reliability and performance of these systems are vital for the safety and success of missions.
Regional Analysis
North America is expected to remain the largest market for aerospace & defense EMI shielding during the forecast period, whereas Asia-Pacific is expected to experience the highest growth during the same period. The higher growth of aerospace & defense EMI shielding in Asia-Pacific is mainly attributable to the increasing aircraft fleet to support rising passenger traffic; the opening of assembly plants of Boeing and Airbus for the B737, A320, and A330 aircraft programs; the increasing procurement of military aircraft, owing to rising defense budget; and upcoming indigenous commercial and regional aircraft (C919 and MRJ).
