Driver: High durability and fatigue resistance
Thermoplastic organosheets offer durability due to their high resistance to the environment and fatigue. The thermoplastic organ sheet is lighter than traditional thermoset composite prepregs. The weight advantage of thermoplastic organosheets can be attributed to their inherent characteristics, such as lower density and the ability to form thinner and lighter structures, making them suitable for aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment applications.
Based on fiber type, carbon fiber is anticipated to register the highest CAGR in the organ sheet market.
Carbon fiber organosheets are composite materials of lightweight carbon fibers embedded in a thermoplastic matrix, usually a high-performance polymer such as PEEK, PPS, or PEI. Compared to traditional materials and other organ sheet types, they boast a unique blend of properties that make them highly desirable across automotive, sports, and leisure applications.
Europe to hold the largest market share during the forecast period.
Strict regulations such as the EU Green Deal force automakers to lighten their vehicles, which is increasing the adoption of organ sheets that provide high strength-to-weight ratios by automobile manufacturers to build automotive parts. Beyond automobiles, the sports and leisure sector and electric mobility solutions are adopting organ sheets for battery enclosures, interior parts, kayaks, and other applications. Germany is at the forefront of the pack with its large automotive industry, stringent green legislation, and aggressive recycling ambitions. Despite ongoing Brexit worries, the UK follows closely with similar environmental ambitions and a strong electric vehicle sector.
