Market Overview:
The global milled glass fiber market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for plastic composites, adhesives, coatings, and other applications across the globe. In terms of type, the 1/8 inch segment is expected to hold a major share of the global market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent thermal insulation properties.
Product Definition:
The definition of Milled Glass Fiber is a type of fiberglass that has been ground down into very small pieces. This type of fiberglass is used in a variety of applications, including automotive and industrial uses.
1/8 Inch:
1/8 inch is a small size fiber which is extensively used in the manufacturing of glass wool. It has high tensile strength and durability as compared to other fibers. The 1/8 inch length can hold more than three times its weight in water without breaking or cracking. This makes it an ideal choice for use in fishing lines, sacking, and protective clothing among others.
1/16 Inch:
1/16 inch is a unit of measurement for the thickness of glass fibers. It is mostly used in the production of Milled Glass Fiber (MIG) which finds application in various end-use industries such as fiberglass, automotive, construction and others. The 1/16 inch thick glass fiber has high tensile strength and can be easily drawn into wire which makes it useful in various applications.
Application Insights:
The plastic composites application segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 30% in 2017. Plastic composites are gaining popularity as they offer various advantages such as lightweight, high strength-to-weight ratio and good thermal insulation properties. The demand for plastic composite is expected to increase significantly in the automotive industry owing to its lightweight property which reduces vehicle weight thereby improving fuel efficiency and reducing pollution on account of reduced emissions from vehicles. This factor is likely to propel product demand over the forecast period.
Milling equipment is used extensively in the production of plastics & rubber compounds due to their high melting temperature ranging between 160°C - 210°C (320°F - 410°F). These mills are also used for grinding materials that do not require sizing such as mineral wool, ceramic tiles and asbestos sheets etc.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. The regional market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing demand for glass fibers in various applications such as adhesives, composites and plastic manufacturing. In addition, growing automotive industry in emerging economies such as China and India are expected to drive product demand over the next eight years.
The presence of numerous manufacturers coupled with raw material suppliers has resulted in high production capacity of glass fiber products across Asia Pacific region which makes it a major global supplier for other regions as well as a buyer for finished goods produced by others globally. Increasing foreign direct investments coupled with favorable government policies are some factors that have contributed significantly towards growth across Asia Pacific region since 2014; these trends are projected to continue over the forecast period thus positively influencing overall revenue generation worldwide during same time span (Source: World Bank Group).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive and aerospace is expected to drive the growth of the global milled glass fiber market during the forecast period.
- The increasing use of composites in various applications is also projected to fuel the demand for milled glass fiber over the next few years.
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using composites, such as weight reduction and improved mechanical properties, is anticipated to boost market growth in the near future.
- The expanding application base for milled glass fiber is another key factor that is likely to propel its demand in coming years.
- Rising investments by key players in research and development activities are expected to provide impetus to the growth of this market over the forecast period
