Epoxy Tooling Board Market Report 2026

The epoxy tooling board market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $9.31 billion in 2025 to $9.7 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in aerospace and automotive prototyping activities, increasing use of composite manufacturing processes, rising demand for durable mold materials, availability of advanced epoxy formulations, expansion of cnc machining capabilities.

The epoxy tooling board market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.44 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of lightweight composite structures, rising investments in electric vehicle tooling, growing demand for rapid tooling solutions, expansion of wind energy component manufacturing, increasing focus on tooling lifecycle optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of high-precision tooling boards for composite molds, growing adoption of cnc-machinable epoxy boards, rising demand for heat-resistant tooling materials, expansion of rapid prototyping applications, enhanced focus on dimensional stability.

The expanding automotive industry is expected to drive the growth of the epoxy tooling board market in the coming years. The automotive sector encompasses businesses and processes involved in the design, manufacture, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, and motorcycles, making it a significant global revenue generator. Growth in this sector is fueled by rising demand, innovations in electric and autonomous vehicles, government support for green technologies, and increasing urban incomes. Epoxy tooling boards are utilized in the automotive industry to create durable and precise molds, patterns, and prototypes for vehicle components. For example, in January 2025, the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), a China-based non-profit industry association, reported that China produced approximately 31.282 million vehicles in 2024, representing a 3.7% increase over 2023. Therefore, the growth of the automotive industry is propelling the epoxy tooling board market.

The rise of wind energy is also expected to drive the epoxy tooling board market. Wind energy involves converting the kinetic energy of wind into electricity using wind turbines. Its adoption is increasing due to the need to reduce carbon emissions, offering a clean, renewable alternative to fossil fuels and addressing growing energy demands. Epoxy tooling boards support wind energy by providing a high-precision material for manufacturing molds and prototypes of wind turbine blades, enabling lightweight, durable, and aerodynamic designs that enhance turbine efficiency and performance. For instance, in January 2024, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, a US-based federal statistical agency, projected wind power generation to increase by 11%, from 430 billion kWh in 2023 to 476 billion kWh in 2025. Therefore, the growth of wind energy is driving the epoxy tooling board market.

Key players in the epoxy tooling board market are focusing on advancements in material technology, such as toughened epoxy systems, to enhance durability, improve thermal stability, and provide superior surface finishes. Toughened epoxy systems are epoxy resins that are enhanced with additives such as rubbers, thermoplastics, or nanoparticles to improve toughness, impact resistance, and durability, while maintaining mechanical strength and thermal stability. For example, in September 2024, Base Materials Ltd., a UK-based manufacturing company, introduced BE890, a durable, toughened epoxy tooling board designed for advanced composite master models, direct-to-part applications, short-run productions, and prototypes. Tailored for industries such as automotive and aerospace, BE890 offers superior surface finishes with minimal sealing requirements.

Major companies operating in the epoxy tooling board market are RAMPF Group, Huntsman Corporation, Sika Group, Freeman Manufacturing & Supply Company, General Plastics Manufacturing Company, ebalta Kunststoff GmbH, DUNA-Corradini S.p.A., Polymeres Technologies Inc., CMT Materials Inc., ELANTAS, Polytek Development Corp., Trelleborg Group, Professional Plastics Inc., Emco Industrial Plastics Inc., Base Group, Sanyo Chemical Industries Ltd., Alchemie Ltd, Poly-Metal Inc., Axson Technologies, Freeman Tooling Technologies.
