3. Toray Industries, Inc. (Japan) and Teijin Limited (Japan) are Leading Players in Composites Market

The global composite market size was valued at approximately USD 108.8 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach to reach USD 181.7 billion by 2028, projecting a CAGR of 10.8%  during the forecast period between 2023 and 2028. A composite material is a mixture of two different materials with different properties, such as mechanical, micro-cracking, and fatigue resistance, remarkable tensile strength, electrical conductivity, and high strength-to-weight ratio, which, when combined, offers an end-product with superior properties. Composites are composed of reinforcement fibers bound together by polymer matrix resins. Various fibers (glass, carbon, natural, and others) and polymer matrix (thermoset and thermoplastic) can be used in composites depending on applications and the required specifications. Composites are used in several end-use industries, including aerospace & defense, automotive & transportation, wind energy, marine, pipe, tanks & pressure vessel, construction & infrastructure, and electronics.

Aerospace & Defense Industry is the second major end use sector in the composites market due to decreased weight and increased fuel efficiency. In addition, more efficient structural and aerodynamic design is achieved due to a greater strength-to-weight ratio.  In developed countries, governmental focus on replacing old aircraft is driving the adoption of composite materials to meet regulatory standards set by aviation authorities. These materials offer significant advantages such as lightweight properties, high strength-to-weight ratios, and resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for modernizing aging aircraft fleets. Regulatory bodies, such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the United States and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), enforce stringent safety and environmental standards
