Carbon Fiber Prepreg Market to Grow with a CAGR of 4.15% through 2030
Rising demand from the aerospace and defense sector and surging adoption in the automotive
industry are factors driving the Global Carbon Fiber Prepreg Market in the forecast period 2026-2030.
According to the
TechSci Research report, “Carbon Fiber Prepreg Market - Global Industry
Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”,
the Global Carbon Fiber Prepreg Market stood at USD 7.61 Billion in 2024 and is
anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 4.15% through 2030. The global shift towards
renewable energy sources, particularly wind energy, has emerged as a
substantial growth catalyst. Wind turbine blades manufactured with carbon fiber
prepregs benefit from enhanced mechanical properties, leading to longer blades,
increased energy output, and improved durability. As countries continue to
invest in wind farm infrastructure to meet decarbonization targets, the
consumption of carbon fiber prepregs in this sector is expected to rise
significantly.
Continuous
innovation in manufacturing technologies—including automated fiber placement
(AFP), out-of-autoclave (OOA) processing, and fast-cure resins—is streamlining
the production of carbon fiber prepregs. These advancements are reducing cycle
times and production costs, thereby improving the material’s commercial
viability across a wider range of applications. The shift towards more
sustainable production methods also supports the increasing emphasis on
environmental compliance across industries.

High-performance
sporting goods such as bicycles, golf clubs, tennis rackets, and skis are
increasingly being made from carbon fiber prepregs due to their lightweight and
durable nature. The rise in recreational and professional sports activities,
coupled with the growing health and fitness trend worldwide, is further
boosting demand in this niche yet profitable segment.
The Global Carbon
Fiber Prepreg Market is segmented into Manufacturing Process, Resin Type, End Use Industry, regional distribution, and company.
Based
on End Use Industry, Aerospace & Defense Care have emerged as the fastest
growing segment in the Global Carbon Fiber Prepreg Market in 2024, accounting for the largest market share.
Reports from leading industry analysts such as IMARC Group and Mordor
Intelligence indicate that this segment held approximately 42%–43% of the total
market share, driven by increasing demand for lightweight, high-strength
composite materials in aircraft and defense applications. The commercial
aerospace industry, including major players like Boeing and Airbus, continues
to incorporate carbon fiber prepregs extensively in aircraft structures such as
fuselages and wings to enhance fuel efficiency and performance. Additionally,
rising investments in military modernization, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs),
and next-generation defense systems have further strengthened demand for
advanced prepreg materials. Epoxy-based thermoset prepregs are particularly
favored in this segment due to their superior mechanical properties,
durability, and compliance with stringent aerospace standards.
North America
has emerged as the fastest growing region in the Global Carbon Fiber Prepreg
Market in 2024,due to its
robust aerospace and defense sectors, which heavily utilize these materials in
aircraft structures and military equipment . Strong automotive
adoption, driven by light weighting and fuel‑efficiency targets in EVs and luxury
vehicles, further boosted demand . Additionally, rising investment in
wind energy (notably offshore projects) leveraged carbon prepregs for turbine
blades, augmenting regional growth f. Complementing these factors are mature R&D
capabilities, advanced composite manufacturing infrastructure, and
institutional support (e.g., U.S. defense procurement programs) that positioned
North America as the leader in 2024.
