根据Research and Markets的预测，到2021年，全球建筑复合材料市场预计将达到66.5亿美元，CAGR为5.8%，在2016年和2021年的预测期内。建筑复合材料在建筑行业的渗透增加，长寿命和低维护要求，快速的城市化和新兴国家的经济繁荣，以及创新产品的开发，是建筑复合材料市场增长的关键因素。建筑复合材料市场，按树脂类型分为聚酯、乙烯酯、聚乙烯、聚丙烯等树脂。聚丙烯树脂建筑复合材料市场预计在预测期内增长更快，因为聚丙烯树脂基建筑复合材料提供各种热性能和机械性能，如耐腐蚀性液体，优良的电气绝缘和在高温下的良好性能，与聚酯树脂相比，苯乙烯排放更低，对不同品种的增强剂有良好的附着力等。建筑复合材料市场，按纤维类型进一步细分为玻璃纤维和天然纤维建筑复合材料。由于工业、商业、住宅和民用等应用的需求不断增长，玻璃纤维建筑复合材料市场在价值和数量上是最大的。建筑复合材料市场的主要应用领域包括工业、商业、住宅和民用。工业应用构成了建筑复合材料市场的主要部分，无论是价值还是数量。复合材料具有耐腐蚀和耐热、尺寸稳定性、柔韧性、高强度和高刚度等多种特性，因此，复合材料在工业中的应用正呈现日益增长的趋势。 North America is expected to be the fastest-growing market for construction composites during the next five years. The factors that contribute to this growth are, the increasing urbanization and industrialization, coupled with long life & the low maintenance requirement. This has resulted in the high demand for construction composites in existing applications such as civil, commercial and industrial. Thus, these growing application industries are expected to drive the construction composites market in the North American region.
据Lucintel称，2015年至2020年，欧洲建筑市场的复合材料应用预计将以5%的复合年增长率增长。住宅和非住宅市场的增长，以及民用建筑，推动了欧洲建筑地区的综合市场。随着欧元区经济的复苏，对新办公室的需求和休闲、物流设施的需求也在增加。几个重要的新兴趋势对建筑业的动态有直接影响，包括投资从国际转向洲际竞技场，以及私人股本公司对建筑业兴趣的增加。与2009年和2010年相比，北美建筑行业的复合材料市场在2012年见证了强劲的增长，这是由于从衰退中复苏和关键市场领域的上升趋势。复合材料市场预计将继续保持其增长势头，并在2013年经历两位数的增长，此后一直快速增长到2018年。预计该市场在2018年将增长至1.534亿美元，未来5年CAGR将保持强劲增长。建筑业是亚洲复合材料行业中出货量最大的领域之一。这包括门、窗、钢筋、电线杆、圆柱百叶窗、格栅、冷却塔、浴缸、游泳池、建筑应用、玻璃钢面板等12种主要应用。今天，复合产品变得越来越普遍。 Rebar, decking, grating, door and window, swimming pool, FRP panel and many other applications are gaining great interest from consumers. The worst performers in Asian construction were markets that were most closely associated with the slowdown in residential construction. Because of the slowdown in residential construction, specifically for exports into the U.S., these markets witnessed a significant decline from the previous year. The best markets were those associated with industrial or commercial applications, most of which have very little correlation to the movements in residential housing. As the global residential housing market continues to decline into 2008, it is important to know which sectors have continued to show strength despite the global economic slowdown. In addition, knowing the top five segments, which are expected to grow at or above 10% a year for the next five years, can help to avoid some of the further weaknesses projected for some application segments. For the next five years, the Asian composite market in construction is expected to average over 8.9% per year, however, individual results vary greatly from -5.3% to 19.2% per year.
