The North America wire harness market is expected to grow from US$ 22.63 billion in 2022 to, US$ 34.14 billion by 2030; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 5.3% from 2022 to 2030.

Analyst Perspective:

The major stakeholders in the North America wire harness market ecosystem include component suppliers, wire harness manufacturers, and end users. The demand for wire harnesses is driven by factors such as booming automobile sector across the region, technological advancements in appliance manufacturing, and increasing demand for wire harnesses to achieve electric connectivity. Fujikura Ltd.; Motherson Group; Nexans; Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.; and Yazaki Corporation are among the major wire harness market players operating in the ecosystem. The organic and inorganic developments done by wire harness manufacturers led to the wire harness market growth. In March 2021, Lear acquired M&N Plastics, a plastic components for automotive electrical distribution manufacturer and injection molding specialist. This acquisition extends Lear's capacity to produce high-voltage wire harnesses. The major end users of the North America wire harness market ecosystem are automobile, agriculture, appliances, and others. Thus, the increasing adoption of wire harness by these industries has propelled the North America wire harness market growth.

Market Overview:

Wire harness (also known as cable harness) are used to transmit electrical power and signals in industries such as automobile, food & beverage, agriculture, and electronics. The North America wire harness market players are compelled to follow stringent regulations and standards. One such standard is IPC/WHMA-A-620 Revision D, introduced by IPC and Wiring Harness Manufacturer’s Association (WHMA), for the acceptance and requirements of wire harness assemblies. Further, governments’ encouragement in various industries is one of the factors contributing to the North America wire harness market growth. Based on material, the North America wire harness market is segmented into PVC, vinyl, thermoplastic elastomer, polyurethane, and polyethylene. Wire harnesses manufactured using these materials can withstand varied environmental conditions; thus, end users purchase wire harnesses as per the need. For instance, a wire harness made of polyethylene is suitable for use in moist environments, as polyethylene can resist moisture.

Market Driver:

North America has been experiencing a significant increase in wire and cable consumption lately. The growing need for renewable energy is accelerating the use of wires and cables. For instance, in 2022, about 4,243 billion kWh (or about 4.24 trillion kWh) of electricity was generated at utility-scale electricity generation facilities in the US. About 18% of electricity was generated from nuclear energy and nearly 22% from renewable energy sources. According to the US Energy Information Administration, an additional 58 billion kWh of electricity generation was from small-scale solar photovoltaic systems in 2022.Therefore, the growing need for renewable energy, and the increasing electricity generation is bossting the North America wire harness market growth.

Segmental Analysis: By Material

Polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic material known for its versatility and perhaps the most commonly used wire/cable material. PVC has a good combination of properties, which explains why it is popularly used for cable insulation and sheathing. PVC is durable, UV resistant, can resist water and chemicals. Although other materials are gradually replacing it, PVC compounds are still the most widely used polymeric materials in the global cable industry, and in 2018, it accounted for 53% of the total global tonnage. Several companies in the North America wire harness market offer PVC-composed wire harnesses for different applications. For instance, Dongguan Yixian Electronic Tech., Co., Ltd. offers customized wire harnesses for automobile, home appliances, and motorcycle applications.
