Global Composite Insulated Panels Market Growth, Share, Size, Trends and Forecast (2025 - 2031)

• In February 2023, Creative Composites Group (CCG), the leading manufacturer of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites, has announced that the group has acquired Enduro Composites, a leading manufacturer of FRP products since 1954 based in Houston, Texas.
• In November 2022, All Weather Insulated Panels (AWIP), an industry leader in foam composite insulated metal panels, has announced an expansion of its wall panel product line with the launch of the DM44 Mesa Panel.

The Global Composite Insulated Panels Market is categorized by product type, with key segments including Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Panels, Rigid Polyurethane (PUR) & Rigid Polyisocyanurate (PIR) Panels, Glass Wool Panels, and Other Products such as Extruded Polystyrene Foam. EPS panels are widely used due to their excellent thermal insulation properties and cost-effectiveness, making them suitable for a variety of construction applications. PUR and PIR panels, known for their superior insulating performance, are increasingly preferred for energy-efficient buildings. Glass Wool panels are favored for their sound insulation qualities, while other products like extruded polystyrene foam offer a balance of strength, insulation, and moisture resistance, catering to specialized applications.

The market is also segmented by skin material, with two major categories: Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (CFRT) and Fiberglass Reinforced Panels (FRP). CFRT panels are gaining traction due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for demanding structural applications. On the other hand, FRP panels are known for their excellent resistance to weathering, making them suitable for both exterior and interior applications in harsh environments. Both skin materials contribute to the overall durability and thermal efficiency of composite insulated panels, further expanding their use in diverse markets.

In terms of application, the market is divided into building walls, building roofs, and cold storage. Composite insulated panels are widely used in building walls and roofs due to their lightweight yet strong characteristics, providing energy efficiency, thermal insulation, and fire resistance for commercial, residential, and industrial buildings. Cold storage applications are particularly important for industries requiring temperature-controlled environments, such as food storage and pharmaceuticals. The increasing demand for energy-efficient, sustainable construction materials, as well as the growing focus on reducing energy consumption, is driving the growth of these segments in the global composite insulated panels market.

Global Composite Insulated Panels Segment Analysis

In this report, the Global Composite Insulated Panels Market has been segmented by Product, Skin Material, Application, and Geography.

Global Composite Insulated Panels Market, Segmentation by Product

The Global Composite Insulated Panels Market is segmented by product into Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Panel, Rigid Polyurethane (PUR) & Rigid Polyisocyanurate (PIR) Panel, Glass Wool Panel, and Other Products (Extruded Polystyrene Foam).

The Global Composite Insulated Panels Market is segmented by product into several types, each serving distinct insulation requirements. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Panels are known for their excellent thermal insulation and are commonly used in both commercial and residential buildings. Their lightweight nature and cost-effectiveness make them a popular choice for a variety of applications.

Rigid Polyurethane (PUR) & Rigid Polyisocyanurate (PIR) Panels offer superior thermal insulation properties compared to EPS, with PIR panels providing enhanced fire resistance. These panels are ideal for use in demanding environments where high thermal performance and safety standards are crucial. They are frequently used in commercial buildings and industrial applications.

Glass Wool Panels provide effective insulation and soundproofing capabilities, making them suitable for both residential and industrial applications. Their versatility and eco-friendly nature contribute to their growing popularity in the market. Other Products, such as Extruded Polystyrene Foam, also play a role in the market, offering additional options for various insulation needs and preferences.

Global Composite Insulated Panels Market, Segmentation by Skin Material

The Global Composite Insulated Panels Market has been segmented by Skin Material into Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (CFRT) and Fiberglass Reinforced Panel (FRP).

The Global Composite Insulated Panels Market is segmented by Skin Material into Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (CFRT) and Fiberglass Reinforced Panel (FRP). Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (CFRT) are gaining popularity due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, which makes them ideal for applications requiring durability and lightness. CFRT panels are known for their superior mechanical properties, resistance to impact, and enhanced thermal insulation. This makes them highly suitable for industries such as construction, automotive, and aerospace, where performance, weight reduction, and thermal efficiency are critical.

On the other hand, Fiberglass Reinforced Panels (FRP) are widely used in applications that require corrosion resistance, high durability, and low maintenance. FRP panels offer excellent resistance to chemical exposure, making them popular in harsh environments such as industrial buildings, cold storage, and refrigerated warehouses. Their ability to withstand moisture, high temperatures, and chemical substances makes them a preferred choice for applications in food processing, agriculture, and the chemical industry. Fiberglass-reinforced panels also provide good insulation and are relatively cost-effective compared to CFRT panels.

The segmentation of the composite insulated panels market by skin material highlights the trade-off between the cost and performance of the different options. While CFRT offers superior mechanical properties and thermal performance, FRP is often the go-to choice for more cost-sensitive applications that still require reliable insulation and resistance to harsh conditions. As industries continue to prioritize energy efficiency and sustainable construction practices, the demand for both CFRT and FRP panels is expected to grow, with the specific choice of skin material depending on the specific needs of each application in terms of durability, cost, and environmental conditions.
