<strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

REPORT DESCRIPTION<br />

<strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> <strong>Market</strong> - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast,<br />

2014 - 2020<br />

The steadfast emphasis on reducing carbon emissions, which has resulted in a remarkable increase in the<br />

demand for fuel-efficient vehicles, will contribute enormously to the growth of the global lightweight materials<br />

market, says Transparency <strong>Market</strong> Research in its latest report.The report is titled, ‘<strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong><br />

<strong>Market</strong> - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2020.’ According to<br />

the report, the global lightweight materials market stood at a valuation of US$126.30 bn in 2013, and at a 5.8%<br />

CAGR between 2014 and 2020, will reach a valuation of US$186.35 bn by 2020. The report also estimates the<br />

global lightweight materials market in terms of volume, stating that the market approximated 54,340.3 kilo tons<br />

as of 2013.<br />

Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 – 2020 report at :<br />

http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/lightweight-materials-industry.html<br />

According to the report, the aerospace industry will be a major contributor to the growth of the global<br />

lightweight materials market as well. The requirements in the aerospace industry, as far as lightweight<br />

materials are concerned, are the need for lighter weight without compromising on strength. Studies have<br />

evidenced that a 1 kg reduction in the weight of an automobile can help cut down carbon dioxide emission by<br />

up to 20 kgs.<br />

Several regional dynamics are also steering the growth of the global lightweight materials market. In the<br />

European Union, for instance, regulatory plans are afoot to penalize companies that manufacture cars with<br />

higher emissions. This has spurred a flurry of activity in the European lightweight materials market.<br />

<strong>Lightweight</strong> <strong>Materials</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

According to the type of lightweight material, the market has been divided into the following segments: Metals,<br />

polymers, composites, and others. The most commonly used lightweight metals used are magnesium,<br />

advanced steel, titanium, and aluminum. As of 2013, the polymers and composites segments collectively<br />

represented 30.2% of the global lightweight materials market. Aluminum is crucial not just for the automotive<br />

and aerospace industries, but also for the construction and machinery manufacturing sector. In the same year,<br />

materials such as metal matrix composites, carbon reinforced plastic composites, and ceramic composites<br />

collectively represented 0.5% of the global market for lightweight materials.<br />

By application, the global lightweight materials market has been split into the following segments: Defense,<br />

energy, and transportation. The demand for lightweight materials is expected to remain the highest from the<br />

transportation sector. In 2013, the transportation industry spurred the highest demand for lightweight materials<br />

and accounted for a sizeable 85.7% of the market.<br />

However, the thriving renewable energy sector is creating a massive demand for lightweight materials in wind<br />

turbines and pressure vessels. The medical devices sector is yet another appreciable contributor to the<br />

revenue growth of the lightweight materials market.<br />

From the regional standpoint, the global lightweight material market was dominated by Asia Pacific in 2013<br />

with a share of 40.3%. Europe and North America trailed Asia Pacific, but are expected to exhibit strong growth<br />

through the report’s forecast period. The fastest growth will be seen in the Rest of the World, the report states.<br />

Companies with the largest shares in the global lightweight materials market are: DuPont, Cytec Industries,<br />

Evonik Industries, ExxonMobil, Aleris International Inc, Bayer AG, Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI),<br />

and Titanium Metals Corporation (TIMET).<br />

The report segments the global lightweight materials market as:<br />
