LONG GLASS FIBER REINFORCED POLYPROPYLENE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global Long Glass Fiber Reinforced Polypropylene Market size is USD 2.62 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 4.81 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 7.9% during the forecast period.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The high-performance composite material known as long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (LGFPP) combines the benefits of polypropylene with the rigidity and strength of long glass fibers. Excellent mechanical qualities offered by LGFPP include improved impact resistance, dimensional stability, and fatigue resistance. The material is reinforced by the long glass fibers, which improves the strength-to-weight ratio and durability.

Automotive sector is one of the fastest developing industries throughout the world. Long glass fibers are one of the most important components in the automotive market. This has increased the scope for the market. All of these factors have contributed in the growth and development of the long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene market growth.

COVID-19 Impact: Disruption in Supply Chain and Scarcity of Raw Materials to Decrease Market Growth
