Thermoplastic Composites Market Overview


The Thermoplastic Composites Market was marked at a value of USD 22.2 billion in 2020 and it is further expected to grow at a higher CAGR of 7.5% during the forecasted period to account for a higher market value of approximately USD 35.1 billion by the end of the forecasted period.


The polymer that becomes pliable and moldable when heated at a specific temperature and upon cooling it solidifies is called thermoplastic. It is also known by the other name called thermo-softening plastic. These polymers have qualities of both aluminum as well as rubber. It can be as hard as aluminum and at the same time soft like rubber. Moreover, these polymers are abrasion-resistant, lightweight, and can stand up to a temperature of 600° F. These polymers are manufactured with the combination of two or more two materials possessing different chemical and physical properties. This enables the polymers to have different characteristics.


COVID 19 Analysis


The global pandemic of COVID-19 has affected a major chunk of the population. Many people have lost their livelihood because of this global pandemic. It has affected the dynamics and growth of several industries. Everyone is worried about their immunity and follows social distancing. During the lockdown situation, operational activities of various end-user industries were halted which resulted in demand shrink for the Thermoplastic composites market which further leads to decreased sales revenue. The supply chain networks were also disrupted which lead to a decline in profit margin.


However, the Thermoplastic Composites Market is expected to recover from this global pandemic by the end of the third quarter of the coming year by properly strategizing according to the needs of the market.
