IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the carbon composites market was growing due to the rising use of carbon composites in automotive, aerospace, marine, wind turbines, and other applications. However, in 2021, various industries had to slow down their operations due to value chain disruptions caused by the shutdown of national and international boundaries. The pandemic has caused disruptions in the supply chain of raw materials. The automotive industry, one of the major users of carbon composites, was negatively impacted by the pandemic. The reduction in aircraft manufacturing and low demand for automotive vehicles also restrained the demand for carbon composites. Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic hindered the growth of the carbon composites market.

The economies are reviving their operations, and various industries are resuming their operations. As a result, the demand for carbon composites is also increasing.
