Total 445 pages, 470 figures/charts and 40 tables. For latest version of this report titled Opportunities for Composites in the Global Aerospace Market 2007-2026, please click here. Latest version was published in June 2007. Here is a feedback from Dr. Giulio Ranzo of BAH (Booz Allen Hamilton), who recently purchased this report. BAH is a $3 billion management consulting firm with 16,000 employees. Report description is given after the feedback. The present report is a comprehensive overview of the advanced composite materials market in the aerospace industry. It provides a top-down view starting from a useful characterization of the aerospace market itself, with accurate breakdown in the main segments and sub-segments (commercial aircraft, regional aircraft, fighter, transport aircraft, launchers, satellites,...). The report contains detailed figures of the volumes (and associated market value) of composites consumed in the different aerospace segments/sub-segments and predicts the consumed volumes until 2010.  Unlike other reports of this type, it also provides technical information regarding materials and processes used for the manufacturing of different aircraft components. For this reason the report is useful not only for business planners but also for Technology Officers willing to create a map of 'who uses which technology' for a given set of aircraft component types. The report also includes a very useful and comprehensive directory of main players/manufacturers, with detailed indication of sources of additional information (for users willing to get even deeper in this type of content). Overall, it is a very complete and useful tool, accurately prepared by aerospace knowledgeable professionals (unlike other market reports of similar type). Additionally, authors and representatives at E-Composites are flexible to answer clarification questions on specific issues and on sources of information.   Dr. Giulio Ranzo Senior Associate BAH (Booz Allen Hamilton) Report Description in Brief The aerospace industry consumes an estimated 565 million lbs of raw materials including aluminum, composites, glare, steel, titanium and others according to this new market study “Opportunities for Composites in the Global Aerospace industry 2005-2010”. This report analyzes the market for commercial aerospace, regional jet, general aviation, helicopter, defense and the space industry. According to this report, demand for composites in the aerospace market is expected to grow by more than 10% in the next five years due to several new aircraft models with high percentages of composites usage. This report is a culmination of a large market survey conducted by E-Composites, Inc. of more than 50 professionals working with various OEMs such as Airbus, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Bombardier, Cessana, General Atomics, General Dynamics, Lockheed, Northrupp Grumman, Piper, Raytheon, Sikorsky, and many others. As a result, E-Composites, Inc. provides you with the most accurate statistics, analyses and forecasts for the complete aerospace market. List of composite parts / primary structures in more than 100 aircraft makes with type of reinforcements / resins and manufacturing processes used are provided in this report. This report will lay out the major players in the industry and what market share they hold. This market study is a reliable and accurate resource for organizations and individuals requiring a thorough strategic understanding of the development, trends and status of the composite materials in the global aerospace industry.
