CARBON FIBER MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2024-2031)
Global carbon fiber market is estimated to be valued at USD 5.22 Bn in 2024, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.66% over the forecast period (2024-2031). Carbon fiber is a thin yet very strong material that is increasingly being used in a variety of applications ranging from aerospace to sports equipment due to its high strength-to-weight ratio. Made from carbon atoms bonded together in crystallite microstructures, carbon fiber is about five times stronger than steel and much lighter in weight. Compared to steel, carbon fiber reinforced polymer is about 30% lighter yet 200% stronger. This makes carbon fiber the material of choice for applications where high strength and light weight are critical factors for success. Various forms of carbon fiber are continuously being developed to enhance specific properties like heat tolerance, conductivity, and others, further expanding its potential uses.
Market Dynamics
Global carbon fiber market growth is driven by various factors like growing demand from aerospace and defense sectors where carbon fiber is being used to make lightweight aircraft components and composites to improve fuel efficiency. Strict emission regulations have compelled automobile manufacturers to enhance fuel efficiency, which boosts adoption of carbon fiber for vehicle components. Rapid infrastructure development in emerging nations can also drive the market growth. However, high costs of carbon fiber materials as compared to conventional alternatives restricts its widespread use. Ongoing R&D to develop advanced production techniques can reduce costs, and this presents an growth opportunity. Market players are also exploring reuse and recycling of carbon fiber composites to address sustainability and cost issues.
