The strength-to-weight ratio of most composites is higher than that of steel and aluminum. The weight reduction of the required structure makes the use of composites vital in the aerospace & defense industry. The use of composite films in aircraft has grown as they are lightweight and have high tensile strength. Composite films can withstand lightning strikes. Commercial aircraft such as Boeing 787 and Airbus 350 are relying heavily on carbon fiber composites for their airframe structures, with 50% of the aircraft’s materials being composites, which in turn increases the demand for composite films.

North America holds the largest market for the composite film market. The key reason for this includes the demand for composite films in the aerospace & defense industry in the region. The demand for composite film in aerospace & defense, automotive, and other industries is projected to improve due to product innovation and technological advances made in this sector. According to the 24/7 Wall St. a Delaware corporation, in the US, parts of Florida experience an average of 100 thunderstorm days annually, making Florida the most likely place in the country for lightning strikes. Also, along the US West Coast, annually, an average of 10 thunderstorms is experienced. These factors drive the demand for composite films during the forecast period.

Key players in the market include 3M(US), Henkel AG Co. KGaA(Germany), Hexcel Corporation(US), Gurit (Switzerland), Solvay(Belgium), Toray Industries, Inc. (Japan), Socomore(France), Park Aerospace Corp.(US), and Axiom Materials Inc.(US), among many others. These companies are involved in adopting various inorganic and organic strategies to increase their foothold in the composite film market.
