Composite Cylinders Market Sees Growth in Automotive Applications

Composite Cylinders market grows with demand for lightweight, durable storage in automotive, energy, and industrial sectors, driving expansion from 2026 to 2030.
According to TechSci Research, the “Composite Cylinders Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F” report states that the global Composite Cylinders market, valued at USD 1.14 billion in 2024, is projected to reach USD 1.54 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.96%.
Infrastructure development in emerging economies is a major driver of the Composite Cylinders market. Rapid urbanization and industrialization in regions like Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa have increased the demand for efficient gas storage solutions. Composite cylinders are gaining popularity due to their lightweight, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for applications such as residential cooking, industrial processes, and transportation.
The energy sector is also undergoing a transformation, with governments investing in clean energy infrastructure. Composite cylinders play a vital role in this transition by safely storing alternative fuels like compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Additionally, the growing adoption of hydrogen as a key energy source is further driving the demand for advanced composite storage solutions.
The construction industry is another key contributor to market growth, as it relies on durable and portable gas cylinders for various applications. Composite cylinders offer resistance to extreme weather conditions and have a long service life, making them a preferred choice in construction and industrial activities. Moreover, the entry of international manufacturers into these regions is increasing competition and innovation, ensuring high-quality composite cylinders are available at competitive prices.
For new entrants and small manufacturers, regulatory complexities pose a significant challenge. Obtaining certifications and approvals can cause delays, impacting time-to-market and raising operational costs. Additionally, evolving regulatory standards require continuous investment in research and development to ensure compliance. These regulatory hurdles can also affect end users by limiting the availability of composite cylinders in certain regions. To address this, industry stakeholders must collaborate with regulatory bodies to harmonize standards and streamline approval processes. Establishing industry associations and advocacy groups can help reduce regulatory bottlenecks and encourage innovation in the composite cylinder market.
Market Segmentation and Key Drivers
In 2024, the Industrial segment dominated the composite cylinders market and is expected to maintain its lead throughout the forecast period. This dominance is driven by strong demand for composite cylinders in industrial applications such as gas storage, transportation, and distribution. Industries like oil & gas, chemicals, and manufacturing require high-strength, lightweight, and pressure-resistant cylinders to safely store and transport gases such as natural gas, hydrogen, and propane.
