The US glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) for bridge construction market accounted for US$ 86.64 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 134.40 million by 2030; the market is estimated to record a CAGR of 5.6% from 2022 to 2030.
Market Introduction
Glass fiber reinforced plastic composites are made by using technologies such as injection molding, compression molding, pultrusion, resin infusion, spray-up, filament winding, and others. Composite manufacturers provide customized solutions to meet the technical demand for products. Various combinations of materials, manufacturing processes, and technologies involved in producing glass fiber reinforced plastic composites offer an almost unlimited range of possibilities for end-users.
In the US, the construction industry is one of the major industries. Increasing investments and government initiatives for developing public infrastructure drive the growth of the US construction industry. In the US, the construction of new bridges and repair, rehabilitation, and replacement of old bridges are increasing. In the country, the Department of Transportation (DOT) launched the new Bridge Formula Program in January 2022. The program has offered funding to repair bridges for states, tribes, and territories over five years. Thus, the growing new bridge construction and old bridge repair, rehabilitation, and/or replacement activities across the US fuel the glass fiber reinforced plastic composites for bridge construction market growth in the country.
Key Market Segments
Based on technology, the US glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) for bridge construction market is segmented into injection molding, filament winding, spray-up, pultrusion, compression molding, resin infusion, and others. The spray-up segment accounted for the largest US glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) for bridge construction market share in 2022. The spray lay-up technology is faster than the hand lay-up technology but produces a less uniform product. Spray-up is an open-molding composite fabrication process where reinforcements and resin are sprayed onto a mold.
Based on bridge type, the US glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) for bridge construction market is segmented into vehicular bridge, railway bridge, and pedestrian bridge. The vehicular bridge segment accounted for the largest US glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) for bridge construction market share in 2022. A vehicular bridge is a significant infrastructure, serving as an elevated roadway designed to provide efficient passage for vehicles. Common types of vehicular bridges include cable-stayed bridges, suspension bridges, and arch bridges. The design of a vehicular bridge depends on several factors, such as the length of the bridge, traffic loads, and environmental conditions.
