South Africa Carbon & Graphite Felt Market (2024-2029)

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The study involves two major activities in estimating the current market size for the carbon & graphite felt market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.

Secondary Research

Secondary sources referred to for this research study include financial statements of companies offering carbon & graphite felt and information from various trade, business, and professional associations. Secondary research has been used to obtain critical information about the industry’s value chain, the total pool of key players, market classification, and segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level and regional markets. The secondary data was collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall size of the carbon & graphite felt market, which was validated by primary respondents.

Primary Research

Extensive primary research was conducted after obtaining information regarding the carbon & graphite felt market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand and supply sides across major countries of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts, such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), Directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from carbon & graphite felt industry vendors; system integrators; component providers; distributors; and key opinion leaders. Primary interviews were conducted to gather insights such as market statistics, data on revenue collected from the products and services, market breakdowns, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation. Primary research also helped in understanding the various trends related to type, application, and region. Stakeholders from the demand side, such as CIOs, CTOs, CSOs, and installation teams of the customer/end users who are using carbon & graphite felt were interviewed to understand the buyer’s perspective on the suppliers, products, component providers, and their current usage of carbon & graphite felt and future outlook of their business which will affect the overall market.

Market Definition

Carbon and graphite felts are basically the non-woven fabrics made from the carbon fiber precursors, such as, polyacrylonitrile (PAN), pitch, and rayon. These non-woven fabrics, when gets passed through various processes such as carbonizing, graphitizing, pressing, and mixing, produces the carbon and graphite felts. Carbon felts and graphite felts are differentiated mainly based on the availability of carbon content. Graphite felt gets made from the purest form of carbon, thus has  high carbon content of up to 99%.
