According to the report, the Europe composites market grew substantially in 2023. Aided by the burgeoning demand for lightweight, durable, and versatile materials, coupled with their expanding applications in a slew of industries, the market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 5.1% between 2024 and 2032 reaching a value of approximate USD 27.94 billion by 2032.
Composites, essentially constituted of two or more distinct materials, amalgamate to offer properties distinct from their individual components, predominantly combining a matrix and a reinforcement. In the European context, composites, particularly those integrating carbon and glass fibres, have been enjoying surging prominence. The reason is their enhanced strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility.
The automotive and aerospace sectors in Europe stand as dominant driving forces behind the surge in Europe composites market demand. With both industries vying for materials that allow weight reduction, enhance fuel efficiency, and reduce carbon emissions without compromising structural strength, composites have emerged as the materials of choice. The European aerospace industry, renowned globally, constantly seeks advanced composites for crafting aircraft components, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
Beyond aerospace and automotive realms, Europe's thriving wind energy sector, which is on a steadfast journey towards carbon-neutral goals, extensively deploys composites in wind turbine blades. Their inherent attributes, such as light weight, resilience, and longevity, make them perfect candidates for the renewable energy sector.
According to the Europe composites market analysis, the European construction and infrastructure industry is undergoing a revolution with the integration of composites in architectural ventures. The appeal lies in the material's ability to resist external elements, longevity, and the design liberty it extends, allowing for innovative and aesthetic constructions.
Additionally, the rapid rise of electric vehicles (EVs) in the European circuit provides a fresh impetus to the Europe composites market growth. As EV manufacturers endeavour to offset the weight of heavy batteries and enhance vehicle range, the role of composites becomes indispensable.
Marine applications in Europe, with an emphasis on luxury yachts and high-speed boats, further the case for composites. The material’s resistance to saltwater corrosion, combined with its lightweight nature, ensures optimal marine performance, making it a preferred choice for marine applications.
