Marine Composites Market Size

Marine Composites Market size was valued at USD 5.67 billion in 2024 and is set to exceed USD 12.24 billion by 2037, expanding at over 6.1% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of marine composites is estimated at USD 5.95 billion.

The primary factor that is attributed to the growth of the marine composites market is the increment in the number of ships across the world along with the technological advancement for trading and transportation. As per the government of UK, the total number of vessels in the world trading fleet rose from 62,100 vessels in 2020 to 63,000 vessels in 2021.

In marine composites several components are used including ferrocement, glass-reinforced plastic, wood fibers, carbon composites and aramid fiber. Owing to its great advantage, such as high mechanical strength, fuel efficiency, weight reduction, corrosion resistance and customizability, the marine composites are used for manufacturing gratings, ducts, shafts, piping and hull shells and assembling powerboats, sailboats and cruise ships. Thus, the rising marine economy is estimated to be a growth drive for the increased adoption rate of marine composites. The statistics of the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis show the marine economy accounted for 1.7 percent, or USD 361.4 billion of total gross domestic product (GDP) in 2020.
