According to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™, the global 3D weaving market is expected to increase from $32.8 million in 2025 to $59.7 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 12.7 percent. The growth of renewable energy and infrastructure projects is a major driver in this market, as it boosts the demand for lightweight, durable and corrosion-resistant composite parts. Uses such as wind turbine blades and structural reinforcements in construction benefit from the superior strength and durability of 3D woven fabrics.
3D weaving machines allow for efficient, near-net-shape production of these complex parts, making them desirable for sustainable and high-performance applications. As global investments in clean energy and infrastructure increase, the demand for advanced 3D weaving technology is expected to rise accordingly.
The automotive end-use industry is projected to grow at the second-highest CAGR in the 3D weaving market during the forecast period, driven by the increasing demand for lightweight and high-performance materials that improve fuel efficiency and vehicle safety.
Because of their superior strength-to-weight ratio and design flexibility, 3D woven composites are increasingly used in structural components, crash protection parts and interior panels. Additionally, the shift toward electric vehicles and stricter emission standards is speeding up the adoption of advanced composite technologies in automotive manufacturing.
The composite textile weaving machines segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, mainly because of their ability to adapt to changing material innovations and custom engineering requirements. Unlike traditional weaving systems, these machines provide flexibility to work with various technical fibers and can be customized to produce high-value, application-specific woven structures.
This flexibility is attracting increasing interest from industries developing next-generation components, such as crash-resistant automotive frames, thermally stable aerospace panels and complex biomedical implants. The capacity to support prototyping and full-scale production makes composite textile weaving machines a strategic investment for companies focused on performance differentiation and innovation-driven growth.
