What are the key drivers behind the rapid expansion of the carbon composites market?
The expansion of the automotive industry is expected to propel the growth of the carbon composites market going forward. The automotive industry refers to the economy sector that designs, develops, manufactures, and sells motor vehicles. The expansion of the automotive industry is due to increasing global demand for personal mobility and significant advancements in electric vehicle (EV) technologies. Carbon composites help the automotive reduce vehicle weight, which improves fuel efficiency, accelerates performance, and reduces emissions while maintaining high strength and durability. For instance, in February 2024, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, a UK-based trade association, the British car manufacturing output surged by 21.0% to 82,997 units in January 2024, with export volumes rising 11.6% and electrified vehicle production increasing by 4.5% to 29,590 units. Therefore, the expansion of the automotive industry is driving the growth of the carbon composites market.
