The GFRP Composites Market was estimated at US$ 48.02 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR of 6.6% during 2023-2028 to reach US$ 70.67 billion by 2028.
Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composites are materials composed of a matrix reinforced with glass fibers. The matrix, often made of a polymer such as epoxy or polyester resin, binds and protects the glass fibers, while the fibers provide strength and stiffness to the composite. GFRP composites exhibit excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and durability, making them popular in various industries, including construction, automotive, aerospace, and marine applications.
