Ballistic Composites Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The growing demand from the aerospace and defense industry is notably driving the ballistic composites market growth, although factors such as premium pricing of high-performance ballistic composites may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the ballistic composites industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Ballistic Composites Market Driver

Growing demand from the aerospace and defense industry is a major driver fueling the ballistic composites market growth. The major driving force for the growth of the ballistic composites market is the increased demand from the aerospace and defense industry. Ballistic composites are widely used in vehicle armor and body and engines of aircraft due to their superior properties over metals and alloys. Furthermore, these materials can withstand higher temperatures and are lighter than metals and alloys. Therefore, they are used for manufacturing advanced ballistic protection equipment and high-pressure turbines. Also, is expected by 2036, the global new aircraft production is projected to be 35,160, and by 2026, the global commercial aircraft production is anticipated to increase by 23.12% when compared with 2016. Increased expenditure on defense by different nations worldwide has increased the demand for ballistic composites. Globally, North America and Europe are known for advanced defense aircraft and equipment. These high-performing aircraft use ballistic composites to improve the performance of their engines. The increased use of ballistic composites in this industry is the major factor driving the growth of the market.

Key Ballistic Composites Market Trend

Increasing LEAP engine demand in the aerospace industry is a major trend influencing the ballistic composites market growth. In the last two years, the LEAP engine manufactured by GE has set off the demand for CMCs in the aerospace industry. The LEAP program involves the manufacturing and supplying of CMC-based jet engines by GE Aviation, a subsidiary of GE. The program has already attracted more than 5,100 orders and aims to achieve a target of 1,720 engines by 2018. CFM International, a joint venture between Snecma and GE Aviation, is developing a high-bypass turbofan engine by using high-performance composite materials. The use of turbo engines can reduce fuel consumption by 15%. For instance, COMAC has planned to use the LEAP engine in its new aircraft COMAC C919. This initiative has also benefited the key players in the aviation sector, such as Boeing and Airbus.

Key Ballistic Composites Market Challenge

Slower adoption of emerging applications is a major hindrance to the ballistic composites market growth. Despite the increase in awareness about energy savings globally, many people remain ignorant about the benefits of ballistic composites in terms of energy efficiency and high strength. Currently, ballistic composites are used widely in high-performance automobile and aerospace engines, body components, and others. Also, it is used in ballistic protection equipment applications of defense industries. The commercial application of ballistic composites in high-temperature industrial applications is still limited to a small number of industries. Apart from these industries, these materials can be used in energy and power, marine industry, and biomedical industries. The demand for ballistic composites is mostly limited to developed nations because of a lack of awareness among industry players in developing countries. This lack of awareness has led to the slower adoption of ballistic composites in emerging industries. Moreover, the cost and availability of ballistic composites are also challenging the growth of the market.
