Ceramic Fiber Market Global Information By Type (Refractory Ceramic Fiber, Alkaline Earth Silicone), Product Form (Blankets, Rope, Paper, Board, Blocks), End-Use Industry (Refining & Petrochemical, Iron & Steel, Power Generation) and Region Forecast Till 2030

Ceramic Fiber Market Overview

Ceramic Fiber Market is projected to be worth USD 1,550 Million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.80% during the forecast period (2021 - 2030). The ceramic fiber market is influenced by the increasing population, rising standard of living, awareness among the consumers regarding the use of environmentally friendly products, high spending power on technologically-driven products, and the growing demand for lightweight products. The global key market of ceramic fiber is APAC, followed by Europe and North America in terms of value. Ceramic fibers can withstand high temperatures and low thermal conductivity.

The ceramic fiber dissipates less heat and has remarkable energy-saving properties due to low thermal inertia and low density, and the products made of ceramic fiber are used as insulation materials in high-temperature applications for high heat containment and energy conservation. The products that are made of ceramic fiber include blankets, boards, bulk-fibers, modules, papers, and textiles. The qualities of ceramic fiber include lightweight, thermal shock resistance, and strength making them useful in several end-use industries like petrochemical, iron, aluminum, ceramic, power generation, automotive, aerospace, and glass.
