Green Carbon Fiber Market Size, Share, & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Source (Bio-based Carbon Fiber and Recycled Carbon Fiber), By Application (Aerospace, Automotive & Transportation, Wind Energy, Sporting Goods, And Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032
Report Format: PDF | Published Date: Ongoing | Report ID: FBI108668 | Status : UpcomingGreen carbon fiber refers to carbon fiber which is produced using sustainable and environment friendly processes and materials. Green carbon fiber is derived from natural materials such as lignin, cellulose, algae, and agriculture waste. It widely used in car bodies, interior parts and engine parts.
In emerging economies, automotive and aerospace industries are expected to grow rapidly which increases the demand for green carbon fiber. It is also used in military aircraft, as it is lightweight and can carry more fuel and payload. Furthermore, it is used in automobile industry due to its durability in harsh conditions and corrosion resistance which is expected to boost the green carbon fiber market in coming years.
However, many consumers and industries are still unaware of the benefits and viability of green carbon fiber. A lack of awareness and understanding of the technology and its advantages is hindering the adoption of green carbon fiber and may slow down the market growth. Key market players are focusing on developing value-added products to compete with industry rivals. They are also engaged in increasing their geographic footprint through strategic expansions.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Green Carbon Fiber Market
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the manufacturing activities and production of carbon fiber globally. The lowering demand from automobile and aerospace industry restricted the green carbon fiber market growth. Travel restrictions to control COVID-19 in various regions affected the demand and supply chain. Manufacturing facilities were halted due to the unavailability of raw materials and shortage of labor, which affected the green carbon fiber market. However, normalization in businesses after COVID-19 and capital investment by the government toward the automobile and aerospace sector will positively impact the green carbon fiber market.
