At 8.3% CAGR, the Asia-Pacific Natural Fiber Composites Market is projected to be worth US$ 1,698.27 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Asia-Pacific natural fiber composites market was valued at US$ 1,053.67 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 1,698.27 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 8.3% from 2022 to 2028.  Applications of natural fiber composites in sporting goods applications and development of natural/synthetic fiber-based hybrid composites are the critical factors attributed to the Asia-Pacific natural fiber composites market expansion.

Sports goods’ manufacturers are focused on innovative materials development and structural design engineering of hockey sticks, badminton and tennis racquets, golf clubs, skis, and other sporting goods. Natural fiber-reinforced composite materials have several properties such as lightweight, high strength, design flexibility, and easy processing and forming characteristics. Therefore, they have a broad range of applications in the sporting goods industry. Natural fiber composites’ manufacturers produce lightweight products for several sports applications. Composite material designed and developed for outdoor gear is expected to have properties such as high strength and lightweight and meet customer safety regulations. Flax fiber composites have inherent dampening properties and vibration control that make them an optimum choice of material for sports products used in skiing, biking, tennis, golf, paddling, and badminton. Therefore, the utilization of various natural fiber composites in sporting goods applications, owing to biodegradability and high-performance properties, is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the natural fiber composites market during the forecast period.

On the contrary, hygroscopicity of natural fiber composites hurdles the growth of Asia-Pacific natural fiber composites market.
