According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global carbon fiber textile market looks promising with opportunities in transportation, marine, wind energy, aerospace/defense, and construction industries. The global carbon fiber textile market is expected to reach an estimated $2.1 billion by 2023 with a CAGR of 7.3% from 2018 to 2023. The major drivers for this market are growing demand for lightweight and high performance composite materials in in transportation, marine, wind energy, aerospace/defense, and construction industries.
In this market, carbon fiber is used to produce woven and non-woven textiles. Lucintel forecasts that woven textile will remain the largest segment due to its wide application area in transportation, aerospace/defense, and wind energy industries. The non-woven textile is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period due to its better drapablity, optimization in component design, and de-lamination resistance.
Within the global carbon fiber textile market, aerospace/defense will remain the largest end use industry due to wider application area and high performance requirement. Transportation segment is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period due to the increasing demand for lightweight materials.
Europe is expected to remain the largest market for carbon fiber textiles due to presence of leading carbon fiber composite component manufacturers. Rest of the World region is expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period due to the expected increase in vehicle production and the growing use of lightweight composites components.
Emerging trend, which has a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, includes development of mass production composite component technologies. Sigmatex, SGL, Seartex, Chomarat, and Vectorply are among the major suppliers of carbon fiber textile.
