India`s carbon fiber tape import market in 2024 continued to be dominated by key exporters such as China, USA, Germany, Italy, and Japan. Despite a high concentration with a Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) remaining elevated, the industry experienced a significant decline with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -12.54% from 2020 to 2024. The negative growth trend persisted in 2024, with a growth rate of -15.92% compared to the previous year. These figures indicate a challenging environment for carbon fiber tape importers in India, suggesting potential shifts and adjustments in the market dynamics.

Carbon fiber tapes are essential for reinforcing and repairing structural components in various industries, from construction to aerospace. In India, the carbon fiber tape market is witnessing growth as industries seek efficient and lightweight solutions for structural reinforcement. The market is characterized by applications in structural strengthening, which is increasingly vital in India infrastructure development and maintenance efforts.
The India Carbon Fiber Tape market is growing in response to the increasing use of composites in aerospace, automotive, and construction. Carbon fiber tapes are essential for reinforcing structures, providing strength while keeping weight to a minimum. In the aerospace sector, carbon fiber tapes are used to make aircraft lighter and more fuel-efficient. In the automotive industry, they find applications in body panels and structural components. The construction sector is also increasingly turning to carbon fiber tapes for strengthening concrete structures. These applications are driving the demand for carbon fiber tapes.
Challenges in the carbon fiber tape market include the high cost of carbon fiber and tape production, limiting its widespread adoption. Ensuring consistent quality and controlling costs while meeting specific requirements of different industries are challenging. Furthermore, the need for skilled labor and advanced manufacturing processes adds complexity to the production of carbon fiber tapes. International competition and variations in demand further impact the market.
The carbon fiber tape market in India experienced similar challenges as the prepreg market during the pandemic. The slowdown in manufacturing and construction activities affected the demand for carbon fiber tapes. Nevertheless, the growing emphasis on infrastructure development and renewable energy projects provided opportunities for the market`s recovery, as these sectors often employ carbon fiber tapes for reinforcement and repair.
Major companies dominating the India carbon fiber tape market are Teijin Limited, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, and Taekwang Industrial Co., Ltd.
