The glass fiber segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the UD tapes market, by fiber, during the forecast period.
Glass fiber dominates the global UD tapes market owing to its ease of processing and manufacturing as compared to carbon fiber, which is very difficult to process. Glass fiber-based UD tapes are used in a number of industries such as automotive, industrial engineering, and high-performance sports equipment. They are produced in large volumes for structural components of automobiles and for applications in sports and aerospace & defense industries.
The aerospace & defense segment is estimated to be the largest end-use industry in the UD tapes market during the forecast period.
The aerospace industry accounted for the largest share, in terms of value, of the UD tapes market in 2019. This is due to the high demand for carbon fiber composites in commercial passenger aircraft. UD tapes are used in aircraft seat frames as it reduces the weight of the aircraft seats by 30% in comparison to traditional aluminum frame seats. It is also used in lightweight sandwich panels for ultralight aircraft. However, the growth of the aerospace industry for the next two years remains uncertain due to the COVID-19 pandemic and backlog in orders of aircraft deliveries by Boeing, Airbus, and other regional jet makers.
