North America Composites Market

The North America composites market size is valued at USD 40.40 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 66.67 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period between 2025 and 2030. 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, offer 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 vessels, construction & infrastructure, and electronics.

In terms of value, the aerospace & defense industry is the largest end-use industry in the North America composites market in 2024.  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 US and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), enforce stringent safety and environmental standards.
