Soaring carbon footprint attributed to heavy automotive usage has led manufacturers to use plastic composites in the production of automotive pillars. This will improve the demand for automotive pillars, according to ESOMAR-certified Future Market Insights’ (FMI) latest research report. As per the study, the global automotive pillar market is slated to surpass a CAGR of 4% across the forthcoming decade.
Demand for automotive pillars is rising extensively in emerging economies as consumers in these regions have become more willing to invest in high performance automobiles given the rising disposable income. Sales of electric vehicles have also augmented across India and China, improving the demand of automotive pillars.
Increasing sales of passenger cars across the globe, especially in developed regions such as Germany and the U.S., are improving the consumption of automotive pillars.
Moreover, with growing adoption of electric cars and luxury cars across the globe, government in such regions are imposing strict regulations to curb the carbon emission and improve the safety of passenger.
According to the FMI’s analysis, passenger cars segment is anticipated to exhibit high demand, accounting for over 78% of market share during the forecast period of 2021 and 2031.
