The demand for carbon fiber is growing in North America and will continue to grow in the future because of its attractiveness as a heavy-duty material in high-speed production environments, and its ease of use with production machinery that is designed for automated production processes. The combination of high-efficiency manufacturing, advanced composite integration, automation, robotics, and precision molding techniques will drive the demand for more carbon fiber, particularly in applications such as industrial equipment upgrades, oil & gas industry modernization, performance-based consumer goods, and energy-efficient production systems.
PAN-based segment, by raw material type, dominated the carbon fiber market in terms of value.
PAN-based carbon fiber dominated the North America carbon fiber market due to its superior strength, stability, and higher carbon yield. About 90% of the carbon fiber produced is made from PAN, and the remaining 10% is made from rayon or petroleum pitch. PAN-based carbon fiber is produced from acrylonitrile via a process of PAN fiber synthesis, flame retardant treatment, carbonization, graphitization, surface treatment, and sizing. The lightweight and high-strength characteristics of PAN-based carbon fiber have led to its widespread use in a wide array of applications, such as aircraft brakes, space structures, military and commercial planes, lithium batteries, sporting goods, and structural reinforcement in construction materials.
Short carbon fiber is expected to register the second-highest CAGR, in terms of value, in the North America carbon fiber market during the forecast period.
Based on product type, the short carbon fiber segment is expected to register the second-highest CAGR due to its cost-effectiveness, versatility, and ability to enhance material properties in various industries. It is widely used in injection molding and 3D printing, allowing for the mass production of lightweight, high-strength components in automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods. Short carbon fiber improves mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and wear resistance when blended with plastics, making it an attractive alternative to metals. Additionally, its ease of processing and recyclability align with sustainability goals, further driving its adoption. As industries seek stronger, lighter, and more affordable materials, the demand for short carbon fiber continues to rise.
The wind energy industry is expected to register the second-highest CAGR, in terms of value, in the carbon fiber market during the forecast period.
The wind energy segment will register the second-highest growth rate in North America’s carbon fiber market due to its exceptional properties that enhance wind turbine performance and efficiency. Its high strength-to-weight ratio allows for the construction of longer and lighter blades without compromising on durability, thus increasing the overall turbine efficiency. Additionally, the superior mechanical properties of carbon fibers help wind turbine blades withstand continuous stress, reducing maintenance costs and extending their lifespan. As the demand for renewable energy grows, carbon fiber continues to play a crucial role in improving the efficiency, reliability, and sustainability of wind power technology.
The US accounted for the largest share of the carbon fiber market in North America.
The US is the largest carbon fiber market in North America. The country’s established and diversified industrial base for aerospace, defence, automotive, and renewable energy generates an enormous and growing demand for high-performance composite materials. Additionally, it maintains a leadership position in commercial aircraft production and has a rapidly growing ecosystem of electric and lightweight vehicle manufacturers. The US also has an aggressive increase in wind energy capacity, and numerous companies have invested in the research & development of composite materials. Furthermore, there are many major producers and fabricators of carbon fiber in the US.
