The Australia Automotive Coolant Market Size refers to industry segment that includes manufacturing, distribution and selling of motor vehicle engine coolants and other thermal management fluids that are used in vehicles to maintain the proper operating temperature of the engine, preventing overheating or freezing. The growth in the sector has been driven by an increase in ownership of motor vehicles, increased awareness of vehicle maintenance, and an increase in overall motor vehicle fleets. Furthermore, new and innovative solutions being developed in the marketplace are creating a completely different landscape within this market.
The automotive coolant in Australia is backed by government support, including the Product Stewardship for Oil (PSO) Scheme, aimed to improve environmental performance of coolant products and waste streams, aligning with national sustainability objectives. Australia’s vehicle market with robust growth over 1.21 million new vehicles were sold in 2023, marking one of the highest annual figures on record and underscoring strong automotive demand that directly correlates with increased consumption of maintenance fluids such as coolants
As technology advances, Australia’s automotive coolant providers are now using advanced organic acid technology type coolants, which provide exceptional corrosion protection, extended service life, and reduced environmental impact. The emergence of hybrid and electric vehicle applications has also stimulated the development of the unique thermal management fluids to address the specific cooling requirements of battery systems as well as the components of electric powertrains, thereby increasing the range of technology and future opportunities for coolant manufacturers in the market.
