Recycled Carbon Fiber Market Growing 12.3% Amid Environmental Regulations

Recycled Carbon Fiber Market

According to a recent study done by FMI, the recycled carbon fiber industry share is expected to reach USD 174.7 million by 2032, up from USD 49.5 million in 2021, expanding at a high CAGR of 12.3%. This study explains how recycled carbon fiber price is directly proportional to increasing concerns over climate change and awareness around the use of biodegradable products.

As the demand for pro-performance, eco-friendly, and energy-efficient products increases, the consumption of recycled carbon fiber is higher than ever. Countries like the US, Germany, and Japan are investing more in research and development projects for recycled carbon fiber.

Factory shutdowns, closed supply chains, and brutally damaged end-use industries restrict the recycled carbon fiber market. The damage done by COVID-19 to the aerospace market has led to a steep decline in recycled carbon fiber.

Not enough awareness about the use of recycled carbon fibers in manufacturing units of multiple products. The number of manufacturing skills one requires to retain the mechanical traits of virgin carbon fiber and produce recycled carbon fiber is very crucial.

European Union has allocated 85% of the materials used in manufacturing vehicles to be recyclable, as this recycled carbon fiber is the ideal material for transforming industries. This way, these industries produce eco-friendly, biodegradable, and green products.

“The major challenge with the recycled carbon fiber market is the lack of composite waste and other scrap material availability. The ability to decrease erosion and increase the durability of products. Gaining higher volumes for the recycling processes of carbon fiber.”

Key Takeaway in Recycled Carbon Fiber Market

  • The increasing demand for lightweight materials to reduce the weight of the vehicle is also augmenting the demand for recycled carbon fiber applications.
  • Europe holds the biggest portion of the global recycled carbon fiber market. The excessive growth in this region is attributed to the continued strategic development of the new-gen vehicle. The countries in Europe are initiating plans to transform carbon fiber waste into products.
  • On the basis of type, chopped recycled carbon is in the highest demand in terms of value and volume, as it is used in multiple industrial mixing, injection modeling, and other compounding processes. Recycled Carbon Fiber Ltd and other companies like this do the work for you.
  • Based on source, the aerospace scrap holds and supplies the most significant amount of scrape to the recycled carbon fiber industries that further produce products formed through these materials. E.g., the Pyrolysis carbon fiber global recycled carbon fiber market is segmented by type, source, and end-use industries and further divided into small segments.
