The market for lightweight materials is on a continuous rise due to increasing penetration of lightweight components, increasing production of aircraft modules as well as growing windmill industry. Lightweight materials are used to manufacture various aircraft components such as airframe, overhead bins, lavatory interiors, passenger doors, and cargo doors. A standard aircraft contains about 70% to 80% of the lightweight materials and due to need to improve fuel efficiency, reduce related costs, and to increase passenger/cargo load per flight.

Moreover, increase in the investments in wind power for capacity additions and new projects across the globe is uplifting the demand for windmills which is linked to growth of the demands for lightweight materials during the forecast period. However, high cost of carbon fiber and fluctuating prices of highly traded commodities and price fluctuations could hamper the growth of the market.
