Lightweight foam core materials are expected to have a significant market share in the global core material market during the forecast period.
Foam is a lightweight and sturdy material; thus, it is the most preferred and economical core material solution in many end use industries. Foams have an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, and this material is easy to process and shape into complex structures. Due to these properties and exemplary mechanical strength and recyclability foam cores are used in various end use industries like wind energy, aerospace, and defense, marine, automotive and transportation, and others. Foam cores are used in sandwich structures to enhance overall structure and mechanisms of composites. Foam cores are manufactured from different thermoplastic and thermoset polymers, including PET, PVC, PU, PEI, SAN, and PMI. Foam core materials can be produced at different densities which range from 2lb/ft3 (30 kg/m3) to 20 lb/ft3 (300 kg/ m3) by changing the blowing agents, the ratio of ingredients in polymers, and adjusting the gas pressure. The foam that holds the maximum share in the foam core material market is the PET foam due to its excellent properties.
The wind energy end use industry is expected to hold the largest share in the global core materials market during the forecast period, in terms of volume and value.
Core materials are used extensively in the wind turbine blades as sandwich panels in the composite structures, hence wind energy is a major end-use industry in the core material market. The wind turbine blades are made by combining core materials and glass- reinforced polyester or epoxy. The core materials that are mainly used in wind energy industry are foam and balsa. Balsa foam core is made from end grain balsa, which is a natural product, this material is used in wind blades because of its excellent mechanical properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio making them ideal for applications requiring strength and stiffness while being lightweight.

The wind energy capacity is steadily increasing in many geographical regions owing to focus on sustainability and global climate change. Thereby, the demand from wind turbine blade manufacturers has experienced a surge, thereby raising the core material demand from the wind energy end use industry.
Asia Pacific region to account for the largest market share in the global core materials market during the forecast period.
Countries like India, China, South Korea, and Japan are rapidly developing countries in terms of product innovation and technological advances in many end use industries like wind energy, aerospace & defense, marine, automotive, construction & building, and other industries. The rapidly growing wind energy sector is a significant contributor to the core material market in the Asia Pacific region. These factors are expected to drive the core material market during the coming years in this region.
