The global carbon fiber in sports equipment market size reached US$ 339.9 Million in 2023. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 524.6 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% during 2023-2032. The growing demand for durable and comfortable sports equipment, increasing preferences for carbon fiber bikes among cyclists, and rising utilization to manufacture various rackets represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Carbon fiber, also known as graphite fiber, comprising numerous filaments and it is manufactured through the thermal conversion of organic fibers with low carbon content, such as polyacrylonitrile (PAN). It is cost-effective, strong, and lightweight and provides superior strength and durability. It is also chemical, corrosion, and stress resistant; has temperature tolerance; and does not get affected by wind or water. Besides this, it assists in providing flexibility in designs, increasing performance, and has low-density as compared to other fibers. As it is widely utilized to produce equipment for various sports, such as cricket, badminton, swimming, and cycling, the demand for carbon fiber in sports equipment is rising across the globe.
