Growing emphasis on sustainability around the world is pushing automotive companies to reduce the weight of their vehicles to comply with stringent fuel economy and emission standards. Carbon fiber reinforced plastic reduces vehicle weight by up to 50% compared to traditional steel without compromising safety. It improves fuel efficiency in combustion vehicles and extends range in electric vehicles. High-performance vehicles, luxury cars, and motorsports already extensively use CFRP for body panels, chassis, and structural reinforcements.

Use in Space and Satellite Technologies: Carbon fiber reinforced plastic companies are expected to target the space industry to boost their business scope in the long run. Use of carbon fiber reinforced plastic in small satellites (CubeSats), space exploration missions, and reusable launch vehicles is slated to rise. Companies like SpaceX, Blue Origin, and ISRO are exploring CFRP for spacecraft structures, solar array supports, and fuel tanks, thereby making this a prominent carbon fiber reinforced plastic market trend.

Europe is expected to account for the largest share of the global carbon fiber reinforced plastic industry owing to presence of a developed aerospace and defense sector. Surging adoption of carbon fiber reinforced plastic to reduce weight and improve sustainability in vehicles and aircraft are also helping bolster the dominance of this region. Use of carbon fiber reinforced plastic in renewable energy infrastructure also helps bring in more revenue for market players.
