July 13, 2023 | Chemical & Materials

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Automotive Polymer Composites Market by Resin Type (Epoxy, Polyurethane, Polyamide, Polypropylene, Polyethylene, Polyester, Vinyl Ester, and Others), Product (Glass Fiber Composites, Natural Fiber Composites, Carbon Fiber Composites), Manufacturing Process (Compression Molding, Injection Molding, Resin Transfer Molding, Sheet Molding), Application (Interior Components, Exterior Components, Structural Components, Powertrain Components), End Use (Conventional Vehicles, Electric Vehicles, Trucks and Buses), and Region 2024-2032,” the global automotive polymer composites market size reached US$ 9.4 Billion in 2023. Automotive polymer composites refer to composite materials used in the automotive industry that combine polymers with reinforcing fibers or fillers to create lightweight, strong, and durable components for vehicles. These composites offer several advantages over traditional materials in terms of weight reduction, design flexibility, and performance. The composites can be tailored to specific requirements, allowing for complex shapes, improved aerodynamics, and enhanced fuel efficiency. They offer high strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion resistance, and the ability to dampen vibrations and noise. The automotive industry utilizes polymer composites in various applications, including body panels, bumpers, interior trim, engine components, and structural parts.

Global Automotive Polymer Composites Market Trends:

The market is majorly driven by the increasing demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles across the globe. Moreover, the growing government regulations and emission standards for the use of lightweight materials, such as polymer composites, are contributing to the growth of the market. Apart from this, the increasing focus on enhanced safety and crashworthiness is supporting the market as automotive polymer composites exhibit excellent energy absorption capabilities and impact resistance. Besides, ongoing advancements in polymer composite manufacturing techniques have led to cost reductions, increased production efficiency, and shorter manufacturing cycles, this is creating a positive market outlook. Also, with the rising demand for electric and hybrid vehicles, lightweight materials, such as polymer composites, are in high demand to optimize the vehicle's range and battery performance. Furthermore, the growing urban population and the rise of shared mobility services are impelling the demand for lightweight, fuel-efficient vehicles, as polymer composites play a crucial role in meeting the needs of compact, energy-efficient urban vehicles. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach US$ 16.6 Billion by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 6.29% during 2024-2032.
