Flax fiber is a lustrous and flexible natural fiber that possess advanced mechanical properties such as high strength and stiffness, low density, durability, biodegradability, and have the ability to absorb moisture and dry quickly which makes them particularly useful for application in automotive, building & construction, and other end-use industries.

In terms of value, PP resin type accounted for the largest share of the overall natural fiber composites market
In 2023, PP resin type in natural fiber composites market have the largest market share due to their ability to produce natural fiber reinforced composites. As compared to other resin types, PP possess advanced mechanical properties such as high heat distortion temperature, transparency, flame resistance, and excellent dimensional stability, so it is widely used for fabrication of composites. PP is becoming increasingly in demand due to its increasing consumption in various end-use industries including automotive, building & construction, electrical & electronics, consumer goods, and packaging.
In terms of value, compression molding segment accounted for the largest share of the overall natural fiber composites market
Compression molding manufacturing process is projected to be the fastest-growing segment in natural fiber composites market, due to its advantages over other manufacturing process. This manufacturing technique is mostly used for low volume production due to its cost effectiveness, lesser wastage of raw materials, lower tooling cost, shorter cycle rates, and the ability to produce larger parts. It can produce heavy and intricate complex parts with good surface finish and is highly suitable for high-performance applications in automotive, and building & construction industry. Natural fiber composites are produced under specific temperatures and pressure in compression molding process.
During the forecast period, the natural fiber composites market in automotive industry is projected to be the fastest growing end-use industry
During the forecast period from 2024 to 2029, the automotive industry is expected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry in the natural fiber composites market. The demand for natural composites is rising in automotive industry due to growing government rules & regulations to adopt natural fiber composites to reduce carbon footprint and promote sustainability.
Top leading automobile manufactures have already adopted natural fiber composites for designing interior and exterior parts of vehicles mainly in seat backs, parcel shelves, boot linens, front & rear door linens, truck linens, and door-trim panels. Ford was the first automotive company to adopt natural fiber composites for the vehicle production using hemp natural fiber. Recently, EV manufactures are also adopting natural fiber composites to reduce weight of the vehicles, pushing the growth in the automotive industry at a very rapid pace.
During the forecast period, the natural fiber composites market in Europe region is projected to be the largest region
Europe is the largest market for natural fiber composites because of its strong demand from automotive, and building & construction sector, which is a driving factor for high-performance materials such as natural fiber composites. The region is dominated by large automotive manufacturers, Audi, BMW, Volvo Group, which have comprehensive use of natural fiber composites in exterior and interior parts of vehicles.
BMW i Ventures has invested in Swiss based natural fiber composites manufacturer, Bcomp for high performance natural fiber composite parts for its various car models, this investment promotes increased demand for natural fiber composites in automotive industry.
