Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance. It is a filament or filament fiber made of glass. Its main components include silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), calcium oxide (CaO), boron oxide (B2O3), etc. According to the alkali content in the glass, glass fiber can be divided into alkali-free glass fiber, medium-alkali glass fiber and high-alkali glass fiber.
According to different chemical compositions and uses, glass fibers can be divided into E glass fibers, S glass fibers, C glass fibers and A glass fibers (acid glass) and other types. E glass fibers are mainly used for electrical insulation materials, building materials, etc. S glass fibers have high strength and impact resistance and are often used in aerospace, military industry and composite high-performance materials. C glass fibers (chemical grade glass) are mainly used for anti-corrosion applications such as chemical equipment and piping systems, and have good acid and alkali resistance. A glass fibers (acid glass) are mainly used in building materials such as cement and concrete to enhance their strength.
The global glass fiber market shows the characteristics of regional concentration. According to CRI analysis, China, North America and Europe are the main glass fiber production regions, accounting for more than 80% of global production. These regions dominate the global glass fiber market with their technological advantages, market demand and industrial cluster effects.
North America, Europe and Asia Pacific are the main consumer markets. According to CRI analysis, North America (especially the United States) is an important consumer market for glass fiber, with major applications including construction, automobiles and renewable energy. Europe is the world's third consumer of glass fiber, with major applications including construction, automobiles, aerospace and electronics. Asia Pacific is the world's largest consumer market for glass fiber and is expected to maintain the fastest growth rate in the next few years. Among them, with the development of infrastructure construction and manufacturing in Southeast Asia, the market demand for glass fiber is gradually expanding.
The demand for glass fiber in Vietnam is growing rapidly, mainly due to the continued development of its economy and the upgrading of its manufacturing industry. According to CRI analysis, glass fiber is widely used in Vietnam's construction, automobiles, electronics, wind energy and other fields. With the advancement of Vietnam's infrastructure construction and industrialization, the scale of Vietnam's glass fiber market continues to grow. At present, Vietnam's local production capacity of glass fiber is limited, so Vietnam's glass fiber market is still highly dependent on imports.
According to CRI data, Vietnam's imports of glass fiber and its products reached US$88 million in 2023, and the cumulative imports of glass fiber and its products reached about US$200 million in 2024. According to CRI analysis, the main import sources of glass fiber and its products in Vietnam include China, South Korea, Japan and other places. China is the main import source of glass fiber and its products in Vietnam. The top three countries and regions for Vietnam's imports of glass fiber and its products from 2021 to 2024 are China, South Korea and Japan. The main exporters of this product to Vietnam are some large glass fiber enterprises. The main importers of glass fiber and its products in Vietnam from 2021 to 2024 are mainly foreign-funded enterprises.
Overall, the Vietnamese glass fiber and its products market is showing a rapid growth trend. According to CRI's market research, although there are a small number of glass fiber manufacturers in Vietnam, the production scale is limited, so Vietnam's glass fiber and its products are highly dependent on imports. With the rapid development of Vietnam's glass fiber market, CRI expects that Vietnam's glass fiber imports are expected to continue to grow in the next few years, especially in the automotive, construction and renewable energy sectors. CRI recommends that glass fiber manufacturers and traders should investigate the Vietnamese market as soon as possible and prepare for the layout of the Vietnamese market.
