The carbon fiber industry has proved itself through high performance, light weight, and excellent strength characteristics. In calendar year 2010, global carbon fiber shipments reached 81 million pounds with a value of US $1.3 billion. This market is expected to grow to $2.8 billion in 2016 with a 12.4% CAGR during 2011–2016. Carbon fiber products, such as wind turbine blades, aircraft components, and golf shafts had a 2010 market value estimated at $11 billion.
Demand for carbon fiber has grown steadily over its 40-year history. Although the composites marketplace has many facets, carbon fiber applications continue to accelerate as industries – from aerospace to renewable energy – adopt this versatile material.
