Key Highlights

  • Composite materials are formed when two materials with different physical and chemical properties are combined. These composite materials are specially designed to carry out a certain task, for instance becoming stronger, lighter, or electrically resistant. Additionally, they can increase stiffness and strength. They are preferred over conventional materials because they enhance the qualities of the base material and can be used in a variety of contexts.
  • The European composite materials market recorded revenues of $23.09 billion in 2024, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.7% between 2019-24.
  • Market consumption volume increased with a CAGR of 1.1% between 2019-24, reaching a total of 2,573.5 kilotons in 2024.
  • The sluggish growth of the European composite materials market during 2019-24 can be attributed to the rising demand for lightweight and durable materials from the aerospace and defense, automotive, and wind energy industries.
