Opportunities in the global composites cylinder market to reach $981 million by 2024

According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global composites cylinder market looks promising with opportunities in gas carriers & storage, transportation, life support, and recreation industries. The global composites cylinder market is expected to reach an estimated $981 million by 2024 with a CAGR of 5.5% from 2019 to 2024. The major drivers for this market are increasing number of natural gas vehicles (NGVs) and growing demand for lightweight cylinders with higher pressure requirement and greater gas carrying capacity per cylinder.

In this market, glass, carbon, and aramid composites are the major raw materials used for manufacturing type-II, type-III, and type IV cylinders. Lucintel forecasts that type III cylinders will remain the largest segment by value and Type IV by volume. The type IV cylinder segment is expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to the growing demand for lightweight cylinders.

Within composites cylinder market, transportation will remain the largest end use industry by value and gas carrier & storage by volume. Transportation segment is also expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period due to the expected growth in the demand for bulk transportation cylinders and unavailability of proper gas pipeline infrastructure.

North America is expected to remain the largest market for composites cylinder due to the higher acceptance level and increasing use of lightweight cylinders. North America is also expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period due to the anticipated growth in the production of alternative fuel powered vehicles, and growing use of mobile pipelines for transportation of gas.

Emerging trend, which have direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include development of type V tank, and increase in green fleet. Hexagon Composites, Luxfer Gas Cylinder, Quantum Technologies, Worthington Cylinders, Time Technoplast, Faber Industries S.p.A., Beijing Tianhai Industry Co., and Ullit are among the major suppliers of composites cylinder.
