Global Short Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Short Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1606 million in 2025 to US$ 2621 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2026 to 2032.
Global sales of short glass fiber reinforced polyamide (SFR-PA) reached 470,000 tons in 2025, with an average price of $3,481 per ton.
SFR-PA is a thermoplastic composite material made by melt-blending alkali-free chopped glass fibers (0.2–0.8 mm in length) with polyamide resins (PA6, PA66, etc.) using a twin-screw extruder and then granulating the resulting mixture. The fibers are randomly oriented in the granules, allowing for molding on conventional injection molding machines. It balances rigidity, dimensional stability, and low cost, making it the most widely used glass fiber reinforced nylon variety.
On the raw material side, PA matrix accounts for 60-70% of the formulation mass and 65-75% of the cost; its monomer price fluctuates with the petroleum-benzene chain. Short-cut alkali-free glass fiber accounts for 25-35% and 20-25% of the cost; it is made from minerals such as quartz sand and limestone through high-temperature melting and drawing, and is energy-intensive and sensitive to natural gas prices. The remaining 5-10% consists of coupling agents, heat stabilizers, and lubricants. Raw materials together account for 75-80% of the ex-factory price, and the market price of polyamide resin is the decisive factor in cost fluctuations.
