PAN dominated the precursor type segment in terms of value in the CF market

PAN precursor dominates the CF market due to its superior strength, stability, and higher carbon yield. About 90% of the carbon fiber produced is made from PAN, while the remaining 10% comes from rayon or petroleum pitch. PAN-based carbon fiber is produced from acrylonitrile through a process involving PAN fiber synthesis, flame retardant treatment, carbonization, graphitization, surface treatment, and sizing. The lightweight and high-strength characteristics of PAN-based carbon fiber have led to its extensive use across various applications, such as aircraft brakes, space structures, military and commercial planes, lithium batteries, sporting goods, and structural reinforcement in construction materials.

Recycled carbon fiber is expected to grow at the highest CAGR in terms of value in the CF market during the forecasted period

In the CF market, the recycled carbon fiber segment is expected to register the highest CAGR due to growing sustainability goals and stricter environmental regulations, which push industries to reduce waste and carbon emissions. It offers a cost-effective alternative to virgin carbon fiber, making it attractive for automotive, aerospace & defense, wind energy, and sporting goods manufacturers. Advancements in recycling technologies have improved the quality and consistency of recycled carbon fiber, expanding its applications. Additionally, companies are seeking lightweight, high-performance materials to enhance fuel efficiency and product durability.

The pipe & tank industry is expected to register the second-highest CAGR in terms of value in the CFRP market during the forecast period

The pipe & tank segment will register the second-highest growth rate in the CFRP market. As CFRP offers outstanding properties, such as a high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and durability, it makes it an ideal substitute for traditional materials like steel and aluminum in demanding applications. In the oil & gas sector, CFRP pipes and tanks are mostly used to transport crude oil and store high-pressure gases, as they have the ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions like saltwater and corrosive chemicals, further extending shelf life and reducing maintenance costs. CFRP pipes & tanks are also being used in the chemical industry for enhanced resistance to water vapor and mechanical stress in applications like chlorine production by replacing rubber-lined steel tanks.

Europe accounted for the second-largest share of the CFRP market in terms of value

Europe dominates the CFRP market due to strong demand from the aerospace and automotive industries for improved efficiency and reduced carbon emissions. The CFRP market in Europe is characterized by capacity expansions, joint ventures, and agreements among various leading players. Airbus generates high demand for carbon fiber reinforced plastics. The company's Superjumbo A380 and A350 are constructed with large quantities of CF & CFRP. The recently released A380 is a sizable aircraft made from approximately 30 tons per unit of carbon fiber. Many regional car manufacturers, such as BMW (Germany) and Audi (Germany), now utilize carbon fiber reinforced plastics on a significant scale. The carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) market in Europe has been experiencing growth and significant demand from various sectors. Europe is home to several prominent automotive manufacturers, aerospace companies, and renewable energy projects, all of which contribute to the increasing adoption of CFRP.
