In addition, the high demand of glass fiber pipes in emerging economies and the increasing demand of glass fiber from the building & construction industry, especially in the middle east and Africa region, are presenting lucrative opportunities for the growth of specialty synthetic and glass fiber market. Additionally, the growing usage of specialty synthetic and glass fiber for manufacturing ballistic equipment is anticipated to enhance the market growth. However, a combination of factors, including the high cost of production, less resistance to heat, issues related to recycling, and lack of research and development in specialty synthetic fiber, are hindering the market growth.

Market Synopsis

Glass segment to dominate the market throughout the forecast period.

Based on material type, the specialty synthetic & glass fiber market is classified into a glass and specialty synthetic fiber. Glass segment leads the global specialty synthetic & glass fiber market and is projected to grow significantly during the forecast years. In 2018, the glass segment contributed more than 60% of revenue share globally. This can be associated with low cost and superior mechanical properties, including durability, flexibility, and strength. Apart from that, enhanced applications of high-end glass fiber in various end-use industries, including wind energy, automotive, aerospace and defense, and electrical and electronics, will further spur revenue growth globally.

In contrast, the carbon fiber segment is anticipated to expand at a significant rate. It is in demand by various end-user industries owing to its benefits offered by it, including lightweight, stain resistance, and durability.

Aerospace & Defense segment expected to dominate the market during the forecast period

On the basis of end-user, the global specialty synthetic & glass fiber market is further classified into automotive, aerospace & defense, building & construction, wind energy, electrical & electronics, and others (marine, pipes & tanks, etc.). In 2018, the aerospace and defense segment led the specialty synthetic & glass fiber market. The segment accounted for more than 25% share in terms of revenue. This can be associated with rising environmental concern and demand for lightweight and high-strength material to increase fuel efficiency. In addition, manufacturers, including Boeing and Airbus, are rapidly deploying carbon composites in their aircraft.

In contrast, the wind energy segment is projected to grow rapidly in the future. Owing to the high demand of specialty synthetic and glass fiber, especially carbon composites, in the manufacturing of wind blades and hubs, among others. For instance, in September 2016, Mitsubishi Rayon Co. Ltd. And Fiberline Composites collaborated to distribute and manufacture carbon fiber composite laminates for wind turbine blades.

Rapid industrialization to spur revenue in Asia Pacific region.

In 2018, the Asia Pacific region dominated the global specialty synthetic & glass fiber market and contributed approximately 30% of revenue globally. The growth in the region can be attributed to rapidly growing industries, including building and construction, automotive, aerospace and defense, and wind energy, among others. China holds the largest market share in terms of revenue owing to increasing government spending on infrastructural development, rising industrialization, and the presence of large number of players in the region, among others. In April 2018, Owens Corning entered a licensing agreement with Taiwan Glass Ind. This agreement will help Owens Corning penetrate further into the Asia Pacific region.

In contrast, the Asia Pacific region is trailed by Europe and North America. However, the North American region is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period owing to the growing automotive and, aerospace & defense industry in the region.
