Global <strong>Composites</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Snapshot<br />

Growing dem<strong>and</strong> for lightweight materials for automotive <strong>and</strong> aircraft components<br />

<strong>and</strong> escalating dem<strong>and</strong> for wind energy is anticipated to drive the global composites<br />

market for the next few years. With the growing need for lightweight <strong>and</strong> high<br />

strength material in automotive, aerospace, <strong>and</strong> wind mill applications; dem<strong>and</strong> for<br />

carbon fiber is constantly increasing. This is due to the exclusive properties of<br />

carbon fiber such as high tensile strength, stiffness, <strong>and</strong> temperature tolerance <strong>and</strong><br />

low thermal expansion <strong>and</strong> weight. However, the expensive nature of carbon fiber is<br />

restricting its use in many applications. Carbon fiber composites currently cost<br />

nearly four times the cost of steel. Therefore, reducing the price of carbon fibers is<br />

likely to offer lucrative opportunities for composite manufacturers.<br />

Owing to these reasons, the global composites market is expected to surge at a<br />

CAGR of 8.9% between <strong>2017</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>2025</strong> to reach a valuation of US$101.88 bn by the<br />

end of <strong>2025</strong> from US$47.32 bn in 2016.<br />

Polymer Matrix Composite to Remain Key Product in Global <strong>Market</strong><br />

<strong>Composites</strong> market is segmented on the basis of product as polymer matrix<br />

composite, metal matrix composite, <strong>and</strong> ceramic matrix composite. In terms of<br />

value <strong>and</strong> volume, polymer matrix composite segment dominated the global<br />

composites market in 2016. It accounted for more than 95% volume share in 2016.<br />

Metal matrix composites offer some advantages over the polymer matrix<br />

composites such as greater resistance to degradation by organic fluids <strong>and</strong> higher<br />

operating temperatures. These composites are also more expensive <strong>and</strong> therefore<br />

offer restricted usage. Ceramic materials are naturally resistant to oxidation <strong>and</strong><br />

deterioration at raised temperatures.<br />

Automotive <strong>and</strong> transportation, construction, aerospace <strong>and</strong> defense, electrical <strong>and</strong><br />

electronics, marine <strong>and</strong> oil <strong>and</strong> gas, wind energy, <strong>and</strong> others. Of these, the<br />

automotive <strong>and</strong> transportation application segment held more than 25% volume<br />

share in the global composites market in 2016. On the other h<strong>and</strong>, the aerospace


<strong>and</strong> defense is another application segment which held relatively significant share<br />

in the global composites market in 2016. <strong>Composites</strong> also provide greater flexibility<br />

because the material can be tailored to meet the design requirements <strong>and</strong> because<br />

they offer significant weight advantages. Composite materials used in aircrafts are<br />

generally reinforced fibers or filaments embedded in a resin matrix. In terms of<br />

technology, layup process segment generated high sales in 2016. However, it is<br />

anticipated to lose its market share by <strong>2025</strong> on account of the growing dem<strong>and</strong> for<br />

low-cost manufacturing processes.<br />

North America to Lead the Pack as Region Shows Higher Adoption of<br />

Technological Advancements<br />

North America dominated the global composites market <strong>and</strong> held nearly 40%<br />

volume share in 2016. Asia Pacific is the anticipated to witness a CAGR of 9.0% by<br />

volume <strong>and</strong> likely to remain an attractive market for composites. This is on account<br />

of rapidly developing technological advancements <strong>and</strong> the adaptation of composites<br />

in applications such as automotive <strong>and</strong> wind turbine blades. Europe being a major<br />

manufacturer of premium cars, is an attractive market for composites. On account<br />

of the increasing use of composites in next-generation aircrafts, the aerospace<br />

segment in Europe is predicted to offer lucrative opportunities witnessing a CAGR of<br />

8.6%, during the forecast period.<br />

Some of the key players in the composites market include Toray Industries, Owens<br />

Corning, Teijin Limited, Hexcel Corporation, TPI <strong>Composites</strong>, Inc, Faurecia,<br />

Performance <strong>Composites</strong> Inc., Enduro <strong>Composites</strong>, Inc., KINECO, APPLIED<br />

POLERAMIC INC., Hexagon <strong>Composites</strong>, Creative <strong>Composites</strong> Ltd., <strong>and</strong> HITCO Carbon<br />

<strong>Composites</strong>, Inc.<br />
