Composites in the Global Passenger Rail Market

Major Composite Component Manufacturers in the Global Passenger Rail Industry

The study includes the market size for composites in the global passenger rail market and forecast of the growth opportunities for the composites market in the global rail industry through 2023, segmented by end use application, resin, fiber, manufacturing process, and region as follows:

Composites in the Global Passenger Rail Market by Application [Volume (M lbs.) and Value ($ Million) from 2012 to 2023]:
Interior Ceiling Flooring Wall Panel Toilet Module Seat Others Exterior Front end Door Others

Composites in the Global Passenger Rail Market by Fiber [Volume (M lbs) and Value ($ Million) from 2012 to 2023]:
Glass fiber Carbon Fiber & Others

Composites in the Global Passenger Rail Market by Resin [Volume (M lbs) and Value ($ Million) from 2012 to 2023]:
Epoxy Polyester Phenolic Vinylester Others

Composites in the Global Passenger Rail Market by Manufacturing Process [Volume (M lbs) and Value ($ Million) from 2012 to 2023]:
RTM/VARTM Open Mold Pultrusion SCRIMP Injection Molding Others

Joptek Composites, Sintex Wausaukee Composites, Excel Composites, Miles Fiberglass & Composites, and TPI Composites are among the major molders in the global rail composites market.

Lucintel forecasts that the front end cab is expected to remain the largest application and toilet module will witness the highest growth during forecast period.
