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.

Carbon Fiber in Sports Equipment Market Trends:

At present, the increasing utilization of carbon fiber to manufacture lightweight, better grip, and unique shape tennis, badminton, and squash rackets worldwide represents one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the market. Additionally, there is a rise in the demand for durable, comfortable, flexible, and high-quality sports equipment among sportspeople around the world. This, coupled with the increasing preference for carbon fiber bikes as compared to aluminum alloy among cyclists, is bolstering the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing application of carbon fiber in sports shoes among cyclists to prevent foot injury and maintain balance on the road is offering a positive market outlook. In addition to this, the increasing adoption of carbon fiber in golf equipment, as it provides better control and stiffness and does not create dents or cracks, is strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising demand for carbon fiber in skis and snowboards to produce tougher and lighter carbon fiberboards is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Moreover, the increasing employment of carbon fiber in various water sports equipment, as it offers increased tensile strength and withstands high impact, and does not erode with water, is supporting the growth of the market. In line with this, the rising demand for sports equipment among individuals as leisure activities are propelling the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of sports equipment due to rising health consciousness and to maintain physical health and fitness among individuals across the globe is impelling the growth of the market.
