Composites Testing Market

Composites testing plays a vital role across the composites supply chain and composite product life cycle. Composites used in various applications have to comply with a range of standards with regard to safety, quality, process control, regulatory compliance and performance. Resin manufacturers, additive suppliers, fiber manufacturers or end-users have to overcome these challenging standards which ultimately offer a significant commercial advantage in terms of quality. The composites testing market is projected to reach USD 3.06 Billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 6.95%, from 2016 to 2026.

The key companies offering composites testing are mainly involved in the investments & expansions and agreements strategies to strengthen their positions in the global composites testing market. The key players are trying to secure their market positions through fixed term agreements with composite part manufacturers and end-users. In addition, the players are expanding their composites testing lab facilities to meet the high demands from various aircraft manufacturers, especially commercial aircraft manufacturers.

From 2012 to 2016, agreements, investments & expansions and acquisitions have been the key strategies adopted by the market players.
