Report Overview
The global glass mat reinforced thermoplastic composite market size was 817.8 million in 2022. As per our research, the market is expected to reach USD 940 million in 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period. The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with glass mat reinforced thermoplastic composite market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
Glass Mat Reinforced Thermoplastic Composite (GMT) is a composite material composed of a reinforced thermoplastic matrix filled with glass fibres. It is used to improve the mechanical properties of thermoplastics and to reduce the weight of components. The glass fibers are coated with a thermoplastic matrix, which binds the fibers together and makes them resistant to environmental conditions. The composite material is lightweight and can be moulded into complex shapes with excellent strength. It is widely used in automotive, aerospace, and marine applications. Upsurge in fuel prices have prompted the need for vehicles that are fuel efficient. Thermoplastic composites are most commonly used as substitutes for aluminium, wood, and steel due to their higher strength-to-weight ratio. Glass mat reinforced thermoplastic composite are thermoplastic composites that are higher mechanically to injection-moulded reinforced thermoplastics. They are used widely in aerospace & defence, automotive, sports belongings, and wind turbine blades. It has low density, improved protection, environmental resistance and better mechanical properties and they may be chemically uneven in terms of physical features. The use of glass mat reinforced thermoplastic has augmented speedily in the consumer goods industry mainly due to its comfort of recycling. In automotive industry glass mat reinforced thermoplastic is extensively used underbody shields, front ends and seat structures. Individuals are becoming tremendously concerned about the environment. Electric vehicle helps the automotive industry to decrease carbon emissions and are ecological friendly. Participating are fixing their efforts on encouraging R&D. Technological development are supporting the regional market growth. Companies coming up with progressive technological solutions for firming their positions.
