According to a research report published by Spherical Insights & Consulting, the United States ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber market size is anticipated to reach USD 68.5 million by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 6.52% from 2025 to 2035. The ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber market in the United States is driven by strong automotive demand, expansion in roofing and building applications, high weather resistance qualities, infrastructure investment, and growing replacement need for durable elastomer materials.

Market Overview

The United States ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber market refers to the production and consumption of EPDM, which is a synthetic elastomer that resists heat, weather, and ozone damage. The material has multiple applications in automotive seals and hoses, gaskets and roofing membranes, electrical insulation, wire and cable jacketing, and industrial hoses and construction applications because it provides durability and flexibility and extended service life to various end-use industries.

Government infrastructure expenditures, particularly through the USD 1 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, create demand for roofing materials and sealants and construction materials, which benefits the United States EPDM rubber market. The automotive and construction industries receive indirect support for EPDM adoption and innovation through energy-efficient building incentives, EPA green chemistry programs, and state public infrastructure grants.

Recent United States EPDM rubber market developments include ExxonMobil Chemical and Dow’s new EPDM formulations with enhanced UV resistance and flexibility (Oct 2025) to better serve automotive and construction sectors. ExxonMobil plans to restart additional EPDM production capacity in Louisiana (2025), while specialty products for EV sealing and sustainable materials are expanding. Future opportunities exist through bio-based EPDM development, EV component production, infrastructure expansion, and circular recycling technology implementation.
