This Aeroengine Composites market report covers market characteristics, size & growth, segmentation, regional & country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.

The aeroengine composites market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.55 billion in 2024 to $2.98 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to weight reduction requirements, improved fuel efficiency demands, regulatory standards for emissions, increased emphasis on engine performance.

The aeroengine composites market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.85 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rise in demand for lightweight aircraft, continued development of advanced composite materials, stringent emission regulations, growing adoption of carbon fiber composites, increased focus on sustainable aviation. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of 3d printing in composite manufacturing, advancements in nano-composites for aeroengines, application of hybrid composite structures, development of self-healing composites, emphasis on recycling and circular economy in composite production.

The ongoing demand for low-fuel engines is anticipated to drive the growth of the aero-engine composites market. Aircraft engines that consume less fuel will not only decrease carbon dioxide emissions but also lower the operational costs for airline companies. The rising global demand for oil and diminishing reserves are leading to increased oil prices, which in turn heightens the need for fuel-efficient engines. Enhanced fuel efficiency translates to significant cost savings for airlines. The adoption of aero-engine composites will help reduce the overall weight of the aircraft, thereby improving fuel efficiency. For example, in April 2022, the Department of Transportation, a US-based agency responsible for planning and coordinating federal transportation projects, announced new Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards that require a fleet average of approximately 49 mpg for passenger cars and light trucks by the 2026 model year. These standards aim for an annual fuel efficiency increase of 8% for model years 2024-2025 and 10% for 2026, resulting in a nearly 10 mpg improvement from the average in 2021. Thus, the demand for low-fuel engines is propelling the growth of the aero-engine composites market.

The growth of air travel demand is another factor propelling the aero-engine composites market. As the demand for air travel increases, lightweight and fuel-efficient aircraft engines become crucial. Aero engine composites, such as carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers, contribute to the development of components that reduce the overall weight of engines, improving fuel efficiency and performance. This not only leads to cost savings for airlines but also aligns with the industry's environmental sustainability goals. The increase in air traffic, as indicated by the International Air Transport Association's report of a 39. 1% rise in total air traffic in May 2023 compared to May 2022, is driving the demand for aeroengine composites.

Technological advancement is a significant trend gaining traction in the aero-engine composites market. Manufacturers of aero-engine composites are increasingly concentrating on adopting advanced technologies to produce composites that enhance fuel efficiency in engines and lower CO2 emissions. For example, in September 2024, Toray Industries, Inc., a Japan-based supplier of advanced materials, introduced Toray Cetex TC1130 PESU. This material provides notable benefits, including lightweight and fully recyclable properties, making it suitable for aircraft interior applications. Additionally, it boasts excellent fire, smoke, and toxicity performance, along with exceptional impact resistance and toughness, which are essential for complying with the stringent safety standards of the aerospace industry.

Major players in the aerospace composites market are entering into strategic collaborations and partnerships to bolster their standing in the industry. For example, in June 2023, Solvay SA, a Belgium-based chemical manufacturing firm, announced strategic collaborations with Spirit AeroSystems, a US-based provider of aerostructures for commercial and defense customers. This partnership is designed to enhance the development of composite aerostructures by leveraging their combined expertise in product development, aerospace design, and manufacturing technologies. The collaboration aims to improve composite fabrication, automation, and assembly processes to boost the performance, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness of future aircraft platforms, in line with the industry's objectives for innovative, eco-friendly technologies.

In September 2022, Parker-Hannifin, a motion and control technologies manufacturer based in the United States, successfully acquired Meggitt PLC for an estimated $7. 4 billion (£6. 3 billion). This strategic acquisition serves to enhance Parker-Hannifin's portfolio and expand its geographic reach. Meggitt, a composites manufacturer headquartered in the United Kingdom, now becomes an integral part of Parker-Hannifin's business operations.

Aero-engine composites are materials composed of two or more constituent parts utilized in the production of diverse aerospace engines. These composites play a crucial role in reducing overall aircraft weight and enhancing fuel efficiency, offering attributes such as high strength, thermal stability, and impact resistance. They are characterized by ease of assembly and resistance to fatigue or corrosion.

The primary types of aero-engine composites are polymer matrix composites, ceramic matrix composites, and metal matrix composites. Polymer matrix composites involve various organic polymers forming a continuous phase with reinforced fibers, providing a stable platform for evenly distributing fibers across the structure. Components manufactured using these composites include fan blades, fan cases, guide vanes, shrouds, and other integral parts. Aero-engine composites find applications in commercial aircraft, military aircraft, and general aviation aircraft.
