Si prevede che il mercato dei compositi in fibre naturali crescerà da 4.438,83 milioni di dollari nel 2022 a 6.910,46 milioni di dollari entro il 2028; si stima registrerà un CAGR del 7,7% dal 2022 al 2028.
I compositi in fibre naturali sono materiali compositi con una matrice polimerica incorporata con fibre naturali ad alta resistenza. Le fibre naturali vengono utilizzate come componente di materiali compositi, dove l'orientamento delle fibre influisce sulle proprietà. Nei materiali compositi, le fibre naturali si riferiscono spesso a fibre vegetali estratte dalla biomassa lignocellulosica come fibre di legno e altre fibre vegetali dallo stelo, dalla foglia, dal frutto e dal seme.
La domanda di compositi rinforzati con fibre (fibre di vetro e carbonio) è relativamente elevata. Tuttavia, sono costosi e non sono rispettosi dell’ambiente. Queste fibre non sono rinnovabili e non riciclabili. Molti paesi dell’Unione Europea e asiatici hanno introdotto normative per l’industria automobilistica. Secondo la legislazione dell’Unione Europea approvata nel 2006, l’80% dei veicoli dovrebbe essere riutilizzato o riciclato; nella revisione del 2015 tale percentuale è salita all’85%. Secondo una normativa del 2015 in Giappone, il 95% dei veicoli dovrebbe essere riutilizzato o riciclato. Inoltre, inconvenienti quali l’elevata densità delle fibre, la scarsa riciclabilità e i rischi di manipolazione limitano l’uso dei compositi in fibra di vetro. Questi inconvenienti dei compositi in fibra di vetro aumentano la domanda di compositi in fibra naturale.
Il mercato dei compositi in fibra naturale è segmentato in cinque regioni principali: Nord America, Europa, Asia Pacifico, Medio Oriente e Asia. Africa e Sud & America Centrale. Nel 2022, l’Europa deteneva la quota di mercato maggiore e si stima che l’Asia Pacifico registrerà il CAGR più elevato durante il periodo di previsione. L’elevata domanda di compositi in fibre naturali da parte dell’industria automobilistica e delle costruzioni favorisce la crescita del mercato europeo dei compositi in fibre naturali. Inoltre, l'Asia Pacifico, la regione più popolata del mondo, ospita una delle industrie edili e automobilistiche in più rapido sviluppo al mondo. Questo fattore contribuisce all'elevata domanda di compositi in fibre naturali nella regione.
