DUBLIN, March 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) Market Report: Trends, Forecast and Competitive Analysis" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global CFRP market is expected to reach an estimated $31.8 billion by 2024 with a CAGR of 4.3% from 2019 to 2024.

The future of the carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) market looks attractive with opportunities in the aerospace, automotive, pressure vessel, and wind energy industries. The major drivers for this market are the growing demand for high performance and lightweight composite materials and increasing performance requirements in the various end-use industries.

Emerging trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include the development of technologies to reduce the manufacturing cost of carbon fiber as well as part fabrication and reuse of CFRP as recycled carbon fiber reduces the cost of product and environmental impact.

Some of the major CFRP players in this market are GKN Fokker, Mitsubishi, Voith, Hexcel Corporation, SGL Group, Plasan Carbon Composite, DowAksa and Toray.

Automotive is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to the increasing demand for high-performance lightweight materials.

Within this market, epoxy, phenolic, vinylester, polyester, PEEK, PPS, PEI, and PA are the resin systems used for manufacturing CFRP products. Epoxy-based CFRP will remain the largest segment by value and volume.

North America will remain the largest region by value and volume due to the growth in automotive and aerospace industries in the US and government regulations on energy-efficient products with less CO2 emission. APAC is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period.
