According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Solid Buoyancy Material (SBM) market size was valued at US$ 394 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 463 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 2.4% during review period.
Solid Buoyancy Material (SBM) is high-strength, low-density composite materials designed to provide reliable and stable buoyant support in deep-sea and marine applications. Typically composed of hollow glass microspheres embedded in a resin matrix, these materials offer excellent compressive strength, water resistance, and corrosion resistance, enabling them to withstand extreme pressure in subsea environments. They are widely used in remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), submersibles, and other marine engineering structures. As offshore oil exploration, deep-sea mining, and oceanographic research continue to expand, solid buoyancy materials play a critical role in enhancing equipment performance and structural efficiency, driving steady market growth.
The Solid Buoyancy Material (SBM) market is primarily driven by the growing demand for deep-sea resource exploration, marine equipment upgrades, and expanding applications in ocean technology. As global interest in offshore oil and gas, mineral extraction, and renewable energy (such as offshore wind power) intensifies, the need for lightweight, high-strength, and pressure-resistant buoyancy materials continues to rise. Additionally, the widespread use of underwater vehicles such as ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) and AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) in energy, defense, and scientific research sectors further boosts the demand for high-performance solid buoyancy materials. Moreover, increased government investment in maritime strategies and ocean security across various countries accelerates the development of related marine equipment industries, injecting sustained momentum into the growth of the solid buoyancy materials market.
