Aerospace Plastics - Global Market Outlook (2017-2026)

According to the Global Aerospace Plastics market is accounted for $12.32 billion in 2017 and is expected to reach $26.79 billion by 2026 growing at a CAGR of 9.0%. The rise in a number of aircraft manufactured, increasing demand for lightweight components and growing demand for plastics in several aerospace applications are the factors driving the market growth. However, the high cost 0f fabrication and a limited range of material options are hampering the market.

Aerospace Plastics highly engineered polymers used in manufacturing various parts and components in the aerospace industry. Some of them are polycarbonates, acrylics, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). These plastics are viable alternatives used in military, rotary, freighter planes, and general aviation planes as compared to other conventional materials including steel and aluminum and the inadequate benefits they offer for aviation performance.

Based on aircraft type, commercial & freighter aircrafts segment has a significant growth during the forecast period due to increasing demand for penetration of air transportation, growing the number of deliveries of commercial aircraft and rising fuel costs that have led to the demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient aircraft.

By geography, North America has the largest market share during the forecast period due to the presence of leading aircraft manufacturers, increasing demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and high replacement rate are some of the factors driving the market growth in this region.
