The global composites market is valued at USD 113.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 168.6 billion by 2027, growing at a cagr 8.2% from 2022 to 2027. The market is growing because of the rise in the demand from wind energy, aerospace & defense, and automotive & transportation industries.
The increasing number of wind installations and aircraft deliveries worldwide is expected to enhance the demand for composites in respective end-use industries, driving the market. The demand for composites from the transportation industry is expected to increase due to the growth in the transportation industry and stringent eco-friendly regulations for producing more lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles. On the other hand, the high cost of raw materials is a major factor inhibiting market growth. The raw materials required are fibers and resins, which are more expensive than traditional materials. Cost reduction is not feasible as it is essential to maintain the quality of products required for high-end applications. The manufacturing process of composites is complex. Therefore, extensive R&D is also required at the micro-level to achieve economies of scale.
