Market Insights

Sports composites market is likely to grow from USD 4.3 billion in 2021 to USD 6.01 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 4.86% during the forecast period of 2022-2028.

Sports-Composites-Market-Size

Sports Composites are now used in as many as 10 different outdoor sports. Options such as glass fiber, carbon fiber, and others are slowly replacing the regular options of metal and wood. These composites are used due to several features such as light in weight, easy in maintenance, cost-effective, and many others. Sports Composites make use of several resins such as epoxy, polyamide, polyurethane, polypropylene, and others. Mostly these are used in manufacturing golf sticks, rackets, bicycles, hockey sticks, snowboards, and others.

Market Drivers

The growing number of patents sought for composites-based sporting goods by global companies, growing manufacturing sectors, and incessant new product unveilings, contracts, and development activities adopted by companies are the major drivers bolstering the growth of the global sports composites market.

Segment Analysis

By Resin Type

The market is segmented as epoxy resin, polyamide resin, polyurethane resin, polypropylene resin, and others. The epoxy resin segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment in the coming five years. The growth is attributed to its remarkable properties, such as elevated heat, mechanical, and electrical resistance.

By Fiber Type

The market is segmented as carbon fiber, glass fiber, and others. The carbon fiber segment is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period, owing to its properties, such as sturdiness, tensile strength, impact absorption, and lightweight.

By Application Type

The market is segmented as golf stick, rackets, bicycle, hockey stick, skis & snowboards, and others. The golf stick application segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The growth is attributed to the application of composites in the designing of golf shaft which minimizes the shaft mass, thus letting the club designer to enhance the head mass, while still preserving a low overall club mass. The provision of a heavier club head, while preserving a minimal overall club mass supports the golfer to swing the club quicker, ensuing in augmented carry distance.

By Region

Asia-Pacific is the largest market for sports composites and is estimated to depict the highest growth in the coming five years. China and India are the growth engines of the region. The market is driven by the growing demand for premium performance products in the skis & snowboards application segment, hassle-free availability of raw materials, and low-labor cost in the region. North America and Europe are also expected to offer considerable growth opportunities during the forecast period.

Sep 2023: Growing Use of Flax Fibers in Composites for Sporting Goods

There is an increasing adoption of flax fibres in composite materials used for manufacturing sporting goods applications, reports the alliance for European Flax-Linen and Hemp, earlier known as CELC.

Babolat, for instance, that is headquartered in France, has recently incorporated a technology – NF2- Tech, into its latest range of racquets. NF2-Tech, short for natural flax filtration technology, represents a flax fiber innovation created in collaboration with EcoTechnilin, based in France. This technology effectively reduces vibrations and enhances the racquet’s acoustics after integrated into the handle and sections of the racquet’s heads, providing improved sensation to the player while striking the ball.
