Report Description

The glass prepreg market size is expected to expand at a significant CAGR of than 7% during the forecast period, 2021–2028. Growth of the market is attributed to increasing demand for airplanes in the Asia Pacific region.

Global Glass Prepreg Market Key Takeaways

The glass prepreg is nothing more than a braided sheet of glass fiber with resins. It is weaved with glass fibers and rolled into sheets, much like a fabric. They are commonly utilized to make components lighter, and employed when great tensile strength is required. Glass prepregs have a wide range of possible applications, including usage in aviation, automotive, sporting goods, recreational equipment, electrical and electronics, insulation, piping, shipping, and other sectors.

Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

Growing use of glass prepreg as an asbestos replacement is estimated to fuel the market during the forecast period.
High demand from the automotive industry is a key factor propelling the market.
Fear of carcinogenic effect is expected to hamper the market growth.
Lack of awareness act as major challenge that can restrict the market growth during the forecast period.
Widespread use in consumer products is anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for the market players.

Market Segment Insights

The thermosetting segment is anticipated to grow at rapid pace
On the basis of resin type, the glass prepreg market is bifurcated into thermosetting and thermoplastics. The thermosetting segment is estimated to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. A thermosetting polymer, often known as a thermoset, is a polymer made by permanently hardening (curing) a soft solid or viscous liquid prepolymer (resin). Heat is typically created through the interaction of the resin with a curing agent rather than being applied externally. Due to the three-dimensional network of bonds (crosslinking), thermosetting plastics are generally stronger than thermoplastic materials. They are also better suited to high-temperature applications up to the decomposition temperature because strong covalent bonds between polymer chains cannot be easily broken.

The aerospace and defense segment is projected hold a large market share
On the basis of end users, the glass prepreg market is divided into aerospace and defense, automotive, wind turbine, sports and leisure, other end-user industries. The aerospace and defense segment is expected to represent a key share of the market during the forecast period. Rising demand for airplanes across Asia-Pacific and the Middle East and Africa area is boosting the demand for glass prepreg in the aerospace and military industry.

To fulfil the worldwide demand for air travel, major aerospace firms such as Boeing have begun to construct plants in Asian nations such as China. As a result of the aforementioned factors, the aerospace and defense industry is expected to dominate the worldwide glass prepreg market during the forecast period.

Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market
On the basis of geography, the glass prepreg market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. The market of Asia-Pacific is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period Due to rising demand from nations such as China, India, and Japan.

China is home to the major hub of automobile industry. There are also significant aerospace and defense sectors, as well as renewable energy industries. In addition, glass prepreg is in high demand in Southeast Asian countries for applications in aerospace, automotive, and other sectors. Reduction in automobile manufacturing in nations such as China, India, and Indonesia is expected to limit market growth during the forecast period.
