The Asia Pacific and North America Regions are the largest Producers and Consumers of the GFRP Composites Market Through the Forecast Period, Says MarketsandMarkets™

The Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics (GFRP) composites comprise glass fibers reinforced with various thermoset or thermoplastic resins. Owing to their lightweight, high strength, flexible design solutions, and high durability, these composites are being preferred in various end-use industries such as aerospace & defense, transportation, pipes & tanks, electricals & electronics, construction & infrastructure, marine, and others. The GFRP composites market is projected to grow from USD 43.93 billion in 2017 to USD 82.10 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 6.4% between 2017 and 2027.

In terms of value, the transportation end-use industry segment accounted for the largest share of the GFRP composites market in 2016. Owing to their lightweight, GFRP composites are used as substitutes of aluminum and steel in the transportation industry. GFRP composites are lighter than traditional metals by 15–20% and therefore, the weight of a vehicle can be reduced by 60% with the use of GFRP components. This increases the fuel efficiency of the vehicle and reduces its carbon footprint. In addition, stringent regulations such as CAFE and UNEP in North America and Europe have been laid down to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the use of lightweight and fuel-efficient materials in structural components of vehicles. This has encouraged the transportation industry in North America and Europe to adopt GFRP composites. The need for low cost, automated manufacturing process to produce complex and customized parts in automotive, aerospace, and wind energy end-use industry are driving the use of additive manufacturing (3D Printing) in the GFRP composites.
