The global long-fiber thermoplastics market size reached US$ 3.1 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 4.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% during 2023-2028.

Long-fiber thermoplastics (LFTs) refer to strengthened innovative structural components and polymer resins that are reinforced with short or long fibers of organic and inorganic composites. As compared to various metals and low-performance plastics, they are more lightweight and offer superior durability, better toughness, optimal dimensional stability, and higher mechanical strength to extend product shelf life. Apart from this, LFTs are stiff, eco-friendly, cost-effective, fatigue enduring, corrosion and chemical-resistant, and provide thermal conductivity. On account of these properties, LFTs are extensively used in injection molding and pellet pultrusion processing across diverse sectors. At present, they are commercially available as long fiber reinforced, continuous fiber, glass mat, and short fiber thermoplastics.

Long-Fiber Thermoplastics Market Trends:

The widespread adoption of long-fiber thermoplastics across various industrial verticals can be attributed to the increasing demand for low-density, recyclable, high-performance components. For instance, in the automotive sector, LFTs are widely adopted over metal components for improving the strength-to-weight ratio of vehicle parts for enhanced fuel efficiency as they are lightweight and exhibit high tensile strength. Additionally, the growing environmental concerns have prompted governments to undertake green initiatives promoting the uptake of multiple recyclable components, such as LFTs, to mitigate volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which is supporting the market growth. Moreover, the shifting inclination of pharmaceutical companies toward LFTs for injection molding purposes, owing to fueling awareness regarding their various beneficial properties, is propelling the market growth. Other factors, such as the ongoing manufacturing activities across the globe, extensive usage of LFTs in wind turbines, and strategic collaborations amongst key players to identify diverse product applications, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
