According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global CFRP Recycle market size was valued at US$ 167 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 372 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 11.9% during review period.
CFRP Recycling refers to the processes and technologies used to recover carbon fibers and/or matrix materials from Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composite waste, transforming end-of-life materials into valuable secondary raw materials for new applications.
CFRP (Carbon fiber reinforced plastics/polymer) are ideal lightweight structural materials for aerospace, automotive, energy and sports industries. CFRP Recycle is recycling CFRP from end-of-life parts and waste generated in the production process, such as scrap materials, out-of-date prepreg. Carbon fiber is an advanced material ten times stronger than steel at only a quarter of its weight. CFRP, a composite material made of carbon fiber and plastic, has the added advantage of being highly resistant to deformation and to both acid and alkaline corrosion.
Market Drivers
1. Regulatory & Environmental Pressures
EU Circular Economy Action Plan & Landfill Directives: Banning/restricting composite waste in landfills (2030 targets)
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR): Manufacturers responsible for end-of-life management
Carbon Neutrality Goals: Life cycle assessment requirements pushing for recycling solutions
Waste Shipment Regulations: Restricting international waste disposal
2. Industry-Specific Demands
Aerospace: Boeing 787/Airbus A350 contain 50%+ composites by weight; fleet retirements creating waste tsunami
Automotive: BMW i3, Mercedes S-Class using CFRP; EU ELV Directive requiring 95% recyclability
Wind Energy: Blade waste crisis—50,000+ tons annually in EU alone; zero-landfill policies
Sporting Goods: High consumer brand pressure for sustainability (bicycles, golf clubs, tennis rackets)
