Growth Opportunities in Carbon Fiber Market 2011 - 2016, September 2011
Background:
The global carbon fiber market has experienced significant growth over the last five years and is expected to continue its growth momentum, reaching approximately US $2.8 billion by 2016 with a CAGR of 12% over the next five years.
Lucintel’s research indicates great demand for carbon fiber driven by new commercial aircraft such as the Boeing 787, Airbus A380, and A350 XWB; weight reductions in automobiles for greater performance and fuel efficiency; and growing use of carbon fiber in wind energy and offshore oil and gas development.
The global carbon fiber market’s anticipated double-digit growth through 2016 will be led by industrial and aerospace markets; however, the sporting goods market is likely to witness the lowest growth of 3%. The industrial market will be driven by wind energy, CNG tanks, civil structures, transportation, and various compound applications in the electrical and electronics industry. Greater competition from offshore suppliers such as from China and India may ultimately drive down the cost of end products.
