SKU ID : UMI-14027303 | Publishing Date : 01-Sep-2018 | No. of pages : 279
Insights Presented in the Report:
The global automotive composites material market is segmented based on different materials such as Polymer Matrix Composite (PMC), Metal Matrix Composite (MMC), Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) and Hybrid Composite. Currently, PMCs are the most popular composite type among the automakers, as they have high flexibility, high insulation, lower density and lighter weight than other composite materials type.
Global automotive composites market is further segmented based on different manufacturing processes for the composite materials. This includes the following: Hand Lay Up, Compression Molding, Injection Molding, and Resin Transfer Molding (RTM). Injection Molding dominated the market in 2017 with a market value of $1.98 billion.
Based on several application areas, the global automotive composite materials market is segmented into Interior, Exterior, Chassis, and Powertrain & under the hood and Structural. Among different application areas, exterior segment dominated and the market, however because of stringent regulations on vehicle interior air quality, the demand of composites for vehicles interiors is expected to bolster during the forecast period.
The global automotive composite materials market is further segmented on the basis of different vehicle types, such as performance cars, passenger cars and other. Passenger cars segment dominated the automotive composites market in 2017, and is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The highest market value of passenger cars among the vehicle segment is attributed to the growing adoption of composites in light vehicles.
For better understanding of the market penetration of Global Automotive Composite Materials Market, the industry is analyzed based on geographies and countries including North America (the U.S., Canada, Mexico and rest of North America), Europe (Germany, France, the U.K., Russia, Italy, Spain and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Singapore, Australia and rest of Asia-Pacific), Middle East and Africa (the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Kuwait, Egypt, Qatar and rest of Middle East and Africa) and Latin America (Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Rest of Latin America). Due to the strong presence of several composite material manufacturers in countries such as China, Japan and India. Asia Pacific regions held the highest market share and was valued at $2.16 billion in 2017. Further, the stringent rules and regulations on GHG emissions in North America and Europe are anticipated to fuel the automotive composite market in both the regions.
