GLOBAL ADVANCED COMPOSITES MARKET

Posted by Aashita Maurya on December 21st, 2020

Market Overview and Latest Updates:

Global Advanced Composites Market is projected to grow from USD XX Billion in 2019 to USD XX Billion by 2028, at a CAGR of XX % between 2020 and 2028. The Advanced Composites are the materials that are composed of more than two constituent elements possessing different chemical or physical properties. The advanced composite is also known as the polymer matrix. These composites depict extraordinary properties such as high strength fibers with high stiffness, elasticity, temperature and chemical resistance, stability in dimension and many others. It is widely applicable in replacing the metal component and finds application in the aerospace industry.

The global advanced composites market is currently experiencing strong growth. Advanced composites are high-performance materials that possess superior mechanical resistance along with strength and stiffness. These composites are light in weight and have excellent dimensional stability, and thermal and electrical conductivity. Advanced composites are widely employed across verticals like aerospace, automobile, construction, sports and military. As these composites are used for manufacturing blades for wind turbines, an increase in the number of wind power stations around the world has also propelled the sales of advanced composites.

The market for advanced composites is characterized by the presence of a large number of regulations. The production process of composite materials is heavily regulated on account of critical nature of their usage. In addition, the usage of such materials is also subject to various regulations related to the strength and performance characteristics, which is likely to affect the growth. Increasing adoption of composites by the automotive industry coupled with reduced raw material prices, is projected to drive the industry growth over the forecast period. Manufacturing companies are shifting their focus towards the developing economies in regions such as Asia Pacific and Central & South America (CSA), on account superior economies of scale.

Market Dynamics:

TRENDS

  • New product launches, expansion of facilities, mergers and acquisitions and strategic partnerships are vital strategies adopted by most of the companies to contribute to the growth of the company and improve their market growth rate. For instance, in April 2019, CSP VICTALL Partners with JMC to Debut the First Composite Pickup Box in China. As the pioneer of composite automotive component suppliers in China, CSP VICTALL announces that Jiangling Motors Corporation (JMC) will use advanced composites for the pickup boxes of its new Yuhu 3 and Yuhu 5 pickup trucks, the first such use of composites in the Chinese automotive industry.

DRIVERS

  • In the aerospace industry, reducing the weight of an aircraft is essential for enhancing its performance and fuel efficiency. As advanced composites are highly durable, have low density and are resistant to chemical corrosion, they are rapidly substituting traditionally used metals for manufacturing aeronautical and aircraft components such as rudders, wings, elaborators, floor beams, landing gear and engine nacelles. These composites are also replacing alloys and metals in the automotive sector. This, coupled with the rising demand for high-performance luxury vehicles, is boosting the growth of the market across the globe. Further, advanced polymer composites, such as HexPly and HexMC, are now being utilized in the production of sports equipment like snowboards, golf shafts, tennis racquets and surfboard fins. Inflating disposable incomes and a rising number of sports enthusiasts are creating strong demand for good quality sports equipment, thereby providing a thrust to the market growth.
