33

The global composites market size was estimated at USD 93.69 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% from 2023 to 2030. This growth is attributed to the rising demand for lightweight components in the automotive and transportation industry. Furthermore, increasing utilization of advanced lightweight components across the manufacturing industries is anticipated to support the market growth during the forecasted years.

Composites find application in the aerospace & defense sector owing to their ability to reduce the body weight of military aircraft and helicopters to a large extent. A reduction in weight is considered important in order to increase fuel efficiency and overall performance and is expected to emerge as the key driver propelling the industry’s growth.

The COVID-19 outburst across the globe has significantly impacted the supply chains as major economies suspended trade operations. Moreover, demand for the product across various end-use industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction has been reduced in 2020. However, with the ease of trade restrictions, the situation is expected to recover in 2021, which is expected to restore the growth trajectory of the market.
