Recently, the glass fiber composites industry association of America released the global market trend prediction and opportunity analysis report of glass fiber composites. In the next 5 years, the total consumption level of the global glass fiber composite market is expected to grow at an annual rate of 8.5%, and its market share is expected to reach $108 billion in 2022, the report said.
The market report also provides a detailed analysis and prediction of glass fiber composites in different industries, and points out that in the next 5 years, automobile firmware, architectural decoration, safety protection, aerospace and liquid filtration will become the 5 key areas of glass fiber complex development, and their market share will account for 80% of the total glass fiber. And the product will show the trend of high-end development.
From the perspective of regional distribution, the demand for glass fiber composites has been greatly increased in the Asia Pacific and Middle East infrastructures.
At present, the Asian glass fiber composite market accounts for 35% of the total value of the world glass fiber composite material. It is predicted that the Asian composite market will grow in two figures in the next 5 years, and the output value will account for half of the total output value of the world composite material. In addition, Asia"s glass fiber composites dealers also grow at an average annual rate of 18%.
Automotive firmware
Market forecast: the global automotive glass fiber composite market is expected to grow to 4 billion 300 million US dollars in 2018, and the compound annual growth rate of ~2020 will reach 30% in 2018. Among them, sales in Asia are expected to reach 1 billion 300 million US dollars.
Facing the problem: at present, the fiberglass vehicle firmware factory lacks general engineering experience, and has adapted to the assembly line based on metal parts. It is quite prudent to replace the equipment for risk and replacement cost. In addition, the European reimbursement vehicle law is required to enhance the recycling capacity of the car, which will lead to a large scale of carbon fiber materials to enter the industry. In spite of the relatively mature technology of reinforced glass composite technology, there will still be fierce competition in the future of carbon fiber composites.
Enterprise trends: the Zetajet glass fiber nonwovens, developed by Textilgruppe Hof, Germany, can be used to produce car sound-absorbing boards in the range of 18 grams per square meter to 350 g / sq m. As a result of the use of a specific fiber orientation technology, the use of Zetajet glass fiber nonwovens to make a bottom sound-absorbing board can greatly reduce the gas resistance and negative impact of the vehicle during the driving process, and help to improve the mileage per gallon of gasoline. Besides, the material can perform special functional treatment according to the needs of customers. At present, Zetajet material has been recognized by the 3 largest automotive brand manufacturers in Germany, and will take the lead in BMW"s new generation of vehicle in September this year.
The latest development of the German Cole Mcgee group is made of 100% high strength glass fiber, and it will not change with time. Although the strength of this seat belt is quite high, it still has a smooth appearance that minimizes the damage to the seat belt and does not feel depressed. Besides, this seat belt also has the characteristics of suppressing UV and smoothness.
Architectural decoration
Market forecast: it is estimated that by the end of 2018, the consumption of fiberglass composite materials will reach 9 million 600 thousand tons. Among them, the demand for Asia is 2 million 560 thousand tons, the North American demand is 3 million 140 thousand tons, the European demand is 2 million 100 thousand tons, and the demand in other regions is 1 million 800 thousand tons. Nowadays, building glass fiber composites in Asia have maintained a 34% growth rate, while America and Europe have maintained 15% and 25% growth respectively.
Facing difficulties: whether building or family decoration, green glass fiber composite materials will be a big trend. But at present, limited by the environment of the building materials market, this trend may take a while. In addition, the irregular production of green building materials manufacturers is also a major reason for its popularity.
Business trends: the German Corporation of Germany and the University of Stuttgart, Germany, jointly developed a building production process based on glass fiber structure, which is a bionic simulation of the ability to build natural organisms. Because of the light quality of special glass fiber and high elastic strength, the multi interconnected robot system can control glass fiber with high precision on the premise of maintaining high operating tension. According to the person in charge of the project, glass fiber is not only used for building mould frame, but also for building tension and pressure. The building can complete the structural design of the large-span cantilever, thanks to the excellent performance of the carbon fiber.
New products in the United States customerway group is a full set of indoor roof protection system. The base material of this system is a glass fiber composite material and a modified spunbonded product. The adhesive used in the production process is a new bio based adhesive, which will not release formaldehyde and other indoor harmful volatile gases, but can distribute the steam inside the system at any time to keep the material system dry as a whole. It is worth mentioning that the system also adds liquid application system to reduce noise pollution, especially for high-rise building market.
safety protection
Market forecast: in 2018, sales of the global security and protection products market are expected to be $75 billion, and Asia will reach 21 billion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 11.5%. In 2018, the profit margin of the global fiberglass safety and protective supplies supply market will reach 20%.
