Carbon fibre is composed of thin carbon strands that are lightweight, have excellent tensile strength and stiffness, and boast resistance against chemicals and heat. It finds widespread applications in the aerospace, automotive, and construction sectors, among others.
"United Kingdom Carbon Fibre Market Report and Forecast 2026-2035" offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Breakup by Material
Breakup by Type
Breakup by End Use
Pan based material or polyacrylonitrile occupies a sizeable portion of the United Kingdom carbon fibre market share owing to its widespread applications in several end-use sectors. It can be used in civil and military aircraft, sports equipment, and vehicles such as luxury cars, among others. This can attributed to its favourable properties such as cost-effective nature, high tensile strength, excellent stiffness, and lightweight features, among others. Furthermore, it possesses high resistance against chemicals and high temperatures, which increases its longevity in extreme environmental conditions.
The aerospace and defence sector accounts for a substantial share of the market due to the increasing usage of composite materials in propellors, rockets, engine blades, interiors of aircraft, single aisle, and wide-body wings, among others. A growing focus on improving fuel efficiency and reducing operational costs of aircraft also promotes the United Kingdom carbon fibre market demand as carbon fibres significantly reduce the overall weight of aircraft.
Additionally, carbon fibres can be moulded into any shape and combined into one mould to lower the number of components required to build aircraft, eventually decreasing the overall manufacturing time.
