According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global composite surface film market looks promising with opportunities in the aerospace & defense, automotive and others industries. The global composite surface film market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 6.3% from 2019 to 2024. The major drivers for this market are increasing aircraft delivery and increasing penetration of composites in the structural components of aircraft.

In this market, wing, fuselage, empennage, and automotive body panel are the major application areas for surface film. Lucintel forecast that Fuselage will remain the largest application due to requirement of high quality surface finish and to reduce the effect of thermal cycling. Wing is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to the growing use of composites in wing components.

Within this market, surface preparation and protection, and surface films with LSP are the two major function of surface film. Surface preparation and protection will remain the largest segment due to its wider application area. Surface films with LSP segment is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period due to its performance benefits, such as lightweight, higher processing efficiency, and offers lightning strike protection.

North America will remain the largest region over the forecast period due to the presence of all major aircraft OEMs and tier players. APAC is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to a growing production of aircraft models with higher composite content.
An Emerging trend, which has a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, includes the development of surface film with higher shelf life and dual cure compatibility. 3M, Solvay, Henkel Corporation, Toray, and Park Electrochemical Corporation are among the major suppliers of composite surface film.
