Post-release:

The global composite materials market is actively growing, estimated at approximately $67-113 billion in 2025, with a forecast of growth to $205-243 billion by 2030-2032. Due to the fact that government programs stimulate the localization of production, thereby reducing dependence on imported equipment, the Russian composite materials market is also demonstrating steady growth. According to data for 2022-2025, the market is estimated at more than 100 billion rubles, showing growth of at least 5% per year, with the main driver being the replacement of traditional materials (metal, concrete) in industry and infrastructure. The market is dominated (more than 90%) by fiberglass products used in construction, infrastructure, and the oil and gas industry.

April 22 to 24, 2026, the 18th International Specialized Exhibition of Composite Materials, Equipment, and Composite Products, Composite-Expo 2026, was held at the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Center.
