Europe Composite Rollers Market Key Players and Opportunities by 2028

The Europe composite rollers market is expected to grow from US$ 24,764.18 thousand in 2021 to US$ 34,173.83 thousand by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2021 to 2028.

Composite rollers are basically made by using raw material which includes resins, fibers, prepreg fabrics and two technologies. The two technologies which are involved for this purpose are filament winding and wrapping. The constant innovation and development in the industrial machineries is demanding lightweight and lower consumption of energy. Such innovation and development have led to the increased application of composite material in several end-use industries. Composite rollers usually utilized in the major business of several industries. These types of rollers are created by using raw materials, including carbon and glass fibers, resins, prepreg fabrics, and some technologies. The constant evolution, mainly in case of industrial machinery, is correlated to easy handling, lower consumption of energy, and lightweight. Such a scenario further opens new prospects of utilization for composite materials throughout all industrial sectors. Composite rollers find applications in specific areas in mines such as small and large machineries; hence, the rising mining & exploration activities are expected to boost the demand for these rollers, thereby boosting the market growth. Moreover, expanded use of composite rollers in the pulp & paper industry is stimulating the growth of the Europe composite rollers market. In the mining industry, composite rollers are generally used as they provide excellent power, decreased vibration & noise, low inertia, and low electricity consumption. The pulp & paper industry is presumed to generate significant demand for composite rollers since they are widely employed as printing rollers, conveyor rollers, and guide rollers, as well as in other applications. 

In case of COVID-19, in Europe, especially France, witnessed an unprecedented rise in number of coronavirus cases, which led to the discontinuation of composite rollers manufacturing activities. Downfall of other chemical and materials manufacturing sectors has negatively impacted the demand for composite rollers during the early months of 2020. Moreover, decline in the overall composite materials manufacturing activities has led to discontinuation of composite rollers manufacturing projects, thereby reducing the demand for composite rollers. Similar trend was witnessed in other Europe countries, i.e., Russia, UK, Italy, Spain, Germany and Poland. However, the countries are likely to overcome thus drop in demand with the economic activities regaining their pace, especially in the beginning of the 2021. 

With the new advancements and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Europe composite rollers market. The advanced composite material used in the rollers allow renegade materials to shed and prevent damage in the case of composite rollers while using with heavy machinery. Composite conveyor rollers are designed to handle any loads, at the highest speeds, in the most challenging environments. For instance, Lorbrand offers next-generation composite conveyor rollers designed to provide high performance & durability while weighing up to 60% less than conventional steel rollers. Lorbrand Composite Rollers are further available in various materials, like HDPE, ECO-HDPE, UHMWPE, CF-HDPE, Flame Resistant, and FRAS material that approved for utilization in underground machinery applications. Unlike some other rollers that utilizes press in end caps, the Lorbrand Composite Rollers contains a friction welded end cap. The friction welding process mainly binds the housing to the shell, efficiently welding the shell together, raising the structural integrity of the conveyor roller, and further eliminating a common failure point on existing composite rollers in the market. Advanced composite rollers consistently show that in most testing environments, a composite roller will outlast steel or less developed HDPE counterparts. This means more uptime, less inventory holding, fewer roller replacements, less roller inflicted damage to the belt, much lower noise emissions, and most importantly, significantly reduced power consumption.
