Composites Market To Drive At 6.6% CAGR Till 2028 Due To High Demand For Performance Materials in Automotive, Transportation, Wind Energy, Aerospace And Defense Sectors | Grand View Research, Inc.
Grand View Research, Inc. – Market Research And Consulting.
According to a new report published by Grand View Research, the global composites industry is witnessing huge potential on account of continuous R&D activities by the major companies.

The global composites market size was estimated at USD 86.4 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 144.5 billion by 2028 with CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for performance materials in various industries such as automotive & transportation, wind energy, and aerospace and defense is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The ongoing COVID-19 outburst across the globe has significantly impacted the supply chains as major economies suspended the trade operations. Moreover, demand for composites across various end-use industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction has been reduced. However, with the ease of trade restrictions, the situation is expected to recover in 2021, which will restore the growth trajectory of the market.

High cost of raw materials for composites is likely to challenge procurement operations by the component manufacturers. However, increased disposable income and readiness to spend more on superior products are expected to influence the market growth positively over the forecast period.

In the U.S., the demand for composites is primarily driven by the increasing demand for lightweight materials in the automotive industry. Rising electrical & electronics capacity additions and steady growth in the automotive and aerospace sectors are the factors that are expected to augment the market growth over the forecast period.

U.S. composites market size, by product, 2018 - 2028 (USD Billion)

The high weight-to-strength ratio has been the key factor behind the increased usage of composite materials in various end-use industries. Superior properties of composites such as design flexibility, corrosion resistance, high performance at elevated temperatures reduce the threat of substitutes.

The market is competitive with a few key players holding a majority of the market share. Their expertise in R&D makes it difficult for the new entrants to operate profitably in the market. However, with the development of products in specific applications to enhance the output of composites is expected to augment the potential market opportunity. As a result, the industry rivalry is expected to remain high over the forecast period.

Composites Market Segmentation

Based on the Product Insights the market is segmented into Carbon Fiber, Glass Fiber and other.
