Pricing Analysis

The price of lightweight materials is expected to fluctuate in the coming years owing to the changes in market dynamics. For instance, the price of carbon fiber composite was around USD 20/kg in 2017 which is expected to decline and reach USD 10/kg by 2020, whereas the prices of titanium in Asia-Pacific were around USD 2,600–3,000 per ton in 2018. The price of titanium is increasing ever since 2017 due to the growing demand and decline in production in China. However, the price of titanium is expected to rise with an increase in the price of feedstock in Europe.

Segmentation

By Type

  • The composites segment is expected to register a CAGR of over 4.5% due to the high demand for carbon and glass fiber in end-use industries. The consumption of carbon fiber is estimated to rise in the coming years owing to declining product prices and high production in Asia-Pacific. In 2018, the demand for carbon fiber was around 78.5 kilotons with the highest demand in the US and Japan.

 

  • Aluminum is majorly used among other metal alloys. Its properties such as electrical conductivity, strength, density, workability, and corrosion resistance make it an ideal application for the automotive and aerospace industries. In 2017, around 63.0 million tons of aluminum were produced worldwide.

 

By End-Use

  • The components of aircraft require advanced engineering materials and complex geometries to meet the specific aircraft design. Carbon fiber allows the fabrication of highly complex and lightweight structures. According to the American Composites Manufacturers Association, the demand for aerospace carbon fiber is expected to reach 22,100 tons in 2020.

 

  • In the energy segment, lightweight materials are majorly used in the manufacturing of wind turbines to generate power. According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), the wind power sector grew at a remarkable pace in 2017, with 7,017 Mega Watt of new capacity added in the US and investment of USD 11 billion. Thus, wind power is the third-largest source of the US electric generating capacity. The high demand for lightweight blades in wind turbines is expected to drive the market growth.
