A composite part consists of fibres embedded in a matrix to give superior properties in comparison to their individual elements. This report provides the most comprehensive global view of this market with detailed sections,10-year forecasts, and application trends segmented for each synthetic and natural fibre in a polymer, metal, or ceramic matrix. The industry may appear well-established, but beneath the surface there are many significant innovations at every stage of the supply chain; this extends from the fibres and their precursors through to the manufacturing processes and their associated industries. These innovations are not only providing opportunities for a wide-range of companies at each step of the part production, but are also developing both improved and nascent materials which are taking this market into expanding and emerging applications. These technical innovations are found in multi-billion dollar companies through to university research. This report contains detailed primary-information and company profiles on 18 of the most significant companies and research institutes, based on IDTechExs interview-based research.
