Market Dynamics

Introduction:

What are composite vacuum consumables?

Composite vacuum consumables are specialized materials and supplies used in the vacuum bagging process during the manufacturing of composite parts. Vacuum bagging is a technique commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, wind energy, and marine to produce lightweight, high-strength composite structures. These consumables help remove excess air and resin, apply uniform pressure, and ensure proper curing of the composite layup inside molds.

Typical composite vacuum consumables include vacuum bag films, release films, peel plies, breather fabrics, sealant tapes, and infusion meshes. Each plays a specific role, such as preventing resin adhesion, allowing gas evacuation, or maintaining even pressure distribution. Since these items are used once during the composite curing process, they are called "consumables." Their quality and performance directly influence the final strength, surface finish, and reliability of the composite component.

Market Drivers:

• The demand for vacuum consumables in the composites industry is highly subject to the performance of major end markets such as aerospace, wind energy, marine, and automotive. Key drivers include the increasing installation of wind turbines, growing demand for lightweight materials, and increasing penetration of composites in modern aircraft (B737Max, B787, B777x, A350XWB, A220, and A320neo) and automotive parts. 

Segment Analysis

By End-Use Industry Type

“Wind energy is expected to remain the largest end-use industry in the market during the forecast period.”

• Over the next five years, wind energy is expected to remain the biggest demand generator for vacuum consumables.

• Global capacity concentration on wind energy continues to grow, with significant investments in onshore and offshore wind farms. This demand is driving the need for high-quality composite materials used in turbine blades.

• GWEC reported that global installations reached 117 GW by 2023, an increase of 50% from 2022. Its 2024-2030 growth forecast was raised to 1,210 GW, up 10%, by national policy supporting, and offshore wind development.

• Aerospace & defense is likely to experience the highest growth during the forecast period, driven by a host of factors including high composites content per aircraft, especially in next-generation aircraft (B737Max, B787, B777x, A350XWB, A220, and A320neo); an expected rise in the production rates of key programs; market entry of new variants (B777x, etc.); and large aircraft fleet size.

By Material Type

“Vacuum bagging film is expected to remain the dominant material type in the market during the forecast period.”

• Vacuum bagging film plays a vital role in composite manufacturing, where it ensures smooth resin flow and reduces air trapping, making them desirable due to their durability and appearance effective for creating a closed environment.

• Release liner is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. It is used in applications that require easy separation of materials, such as labels and adhesives. The versatility and functionality of release liners are accelerating their increasing adoption in the composite vacuum consumable market.

By Application Type

“The infusion process is estimated to remain the largest application type in the market.”

• Key drivers are increasing penetration of composites in modern aircraft programs (having high usage of prepreg), impressive growth in wind turbine installations coupled with the trend of large-sized blades, and the emergence of advanced composites in the automotive industry.

• Almost all wind turbine blades are preferably fabricated through the infusion process, mainly VARTM. Marine (Recreational boats) are the next big user with applications such as hulls and decks, which are preferably fabricated through the infusion process.

• This process leads to the production of high-quality composites with good mechanical properties and few defects, which are essential for critical applications in the industry.

Regional Analysis

“Asia-Pacific is projected to remain the largest market during the forecast period.”

• Significant industrial expansion is taking place in the region, especially in wind energy aerospace, and automotive, leading to increased demand for the vacuum consumable market.

• China is the workhorse of the region, driving the region’s share significantly. In the country, there is a strong focus on localization of the process to substitute the import. Local players are expected to enhance their presence in the market during the forecast period.

• North America is currently the second-largest market and is likely to maintain its position in the years to come. The region has been the pioneer in the advanced composites industry with the presence of several small to large-sized OEMs, molders, vacuum consumable suppliers, and raw material suppliers.
