Fiber Glass Reinforced Plastic (GFRP): Rising demand from Boating and Marine Industry will boost the growth of the global market

Pune, India, December 16, 2017, /MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future Published a Half-Cooked Research Report on Global Fiber Glass Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) Market

Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market (GFRP), is a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. Commercial material such as glass fibers are reinforced with matrices based on thermosetting polymers, such as epoxy or polyester resins. GFRPs are commonly used in the automotive, marine, and building & construction industries.

Some of the prominent factors that positively influence the growth of GFRP Market are increasing demand for glass fiber based chemical storage vessels, rising demand for light weight glass fiber materials for construction of ships and yachts, and proliferation of fiber Glass Reinforced Plastic based construction materials. Increasing urbanization along with rising per capita disposable income in developed and emerging economies are predicted to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period, 2017 to 2023. High adoption rate along with the increasing number of wind energy plants to meet the energy for the ever-growing population. Moreover, continuous expansion of automotive sector as well as shifting manufacturers focus towards lightweight materials and cost effective vehicles are estimated to fuel the growth of the GFRP Market during the review period, 2022 to 2030. Although, owing to the environmental effects of high temperatures and water content, the mechanical properties of the GFRP are altered, which is anticipated to decline the market growth over the forecast period.
