Description

The global Automotive Short Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyurethane market size is predicted to grow from US$ 881 million in 2025 to US$ 1352 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2026 to 2032.

Global sales of automotive short glass fiber reinforced polyurethane reached 389,000 tons in 2025, with an average price of US$2,315 per ton.

Automotive short glass fiber reinforced polyurethane (SF-PU) is a composite material made by injection molding or compression molding of short glass fibers (<5 mm in length) as reinforcement, mixed with a polyurethane matrix (MDI/TDI + polyether/polyester polyol). It combines the flexibility and wear resistance of PU with the rigidity of glass fiber, allowing for the one-piece molding of complex thin-walled parts. It is mainly used in automotive interior parts, small body panels, and functional brackets.

Its raw material cost structure: Polyurethane system (isocyanate + polyol) approximately 2.2–2.6 USD/kg, accounting for 60–70% of the formulation; chopped glass fiber (1–5 mm) 1.6–1.9 USD/kg, accounting for 25–30%; the remaining 5–10% consists of coupling agents, catalysts, release agents, and other additives; the total raw material cost is approximately 2.3–3.0 USD/kg, of which the matrix resin contributes 55–65%, glass fiber 20–25%, and additives and losses 10–15%.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
