Exponential economic growth of various developed and developing countries such as the U.S., Germany, the UK, China, India, UAE, etc. has driven concerns regarding sustainability and carbon emission levels. Increasing awareness regarding application of lightweight materials to manufacture interior and exterior automotive components, thereby reducing overall fuel consumption are other factors likely to drive market growth. Automotive composites consumption has witnessed a steady rise, mainly in the U.S. which has 800 vehicles per 1,000 people.
Composites offer high heat and impact resistance, while lowering overall vehicle weight mainly in electric & hybrid cars. However, differing regulatory structures and high raw material (composite) prices are likely to hamper growth. Recyclability concerns are also likely to challenge the industry over the forecast period. Rising carbon emission levels owing to increasing vehicular activity over the last few decades has prompted governments across the globe to revamp numerous aspects regarding adherence to environmental norms and regulations in the automotive industry.
