Fiberglass roving represents a denser fiberglass fabric manufactured from a singular bundle of continuous filaments. This material finds application in various processes such as pultrusion, multi-axial weaving, and filament winding, serving purposes in weaving tasks, cement board production, and other industrial functions.
The primary categories of fiberglass roving products include single-end roving, multi-end roving, and chopped roving. Single-end roving serves as the primary reinforcing fiber for filament winding and pultrusion applications. It also acts as the foundational fiber for woven roving and knitted textiles. Various types of fiberglass, such as e-glass, ECR-glass, H-glass, AR-glass, and S-glass, are utilized across a wide range of applications. These applications span industries such as electrical and electronics, transportation, construction and infrastructure, pipes and tanks, energy, and other industrial sectors.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are impacting the fiberglass roving market by increasing costs of imported glass fibers, chemical binders, sizing agents, and energy-intensive production inputs used across single-end, multi-end, and chopped roving manufacturing. Asia-Pacific and Europe are most affected due to reliance on cross-border raw material sourcing, while North America faces higher production input costs. These tariffs are increasing overall manufacturing expenses and affecting price competitiveness. However, they are also encouraging localized fiber production, regional supply chain development, and investments in domestic composite material manufacturing capacity.

This fiberglass roving market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The fiberglass roving market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.27 billion in 2025 to $11.11 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of construction and infrastructure projects, increasing use of composite materials in transportation, rising adoption of fiberglass in electrical applications, availability of cost-effective glass fiber production, growth in pipe and tank manufacturing.
The fiberglass roving market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.51 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for lightweight materials in electric vehicles, rising investments in renewable energy infrastructure, expansion of composite applications in construction, growing focus on material durability and lifespan, increasing use of advanced manufacturing techniques. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of high-strength composite reinforcements, rising adoption of pultrusion and filament winding processes, growing demand for lightweight structural materials, expansion of fiberglass use in infrastructure applications, enhanced focus on corrosion-resistant materials.
The increasing demand from the wind energy sector is expected to drive the growth of the fiberglass roving market in the coming years. The wind energy sector includes industries involved in the design, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance of wind turbines and other renewable power generation equipment. Within this sector, fiberglass roving enables the manufacture of larger wind turbine blades, which contributes to improved turbine energy output. It is a key material used by the wind energy industry in the production of nacelles and turbine blades. For example, in December 2023, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), a UAE-based intergovernmental organization, reported that annual average investments in renewable power generation must increase to USD 1,300 billion by 2030, up from USD 486 billion in 2022. This represented the second-highest growth rate among all renewable energy technologies. Therefore, rising demand from the wind energy sector is supporting the growth of the fiberglass roving market.
Major companies operating in the fiberglass roving market are concentrating on technological advancements in manufacturing processes, such as Interwet-LFI technology, to reinforce their market presence. Interwet-LFI technology improves the structural performance of visually designed polymer components by applying a GFR-PU layer to the reverse side, enhancing stiffness, strength, and durability, especially for external body panels used in automotive and agricultural vehicles. For instance, in October 2023, Cannon Plas Tec, an Italy-based plastic processing manufacturing company, introduced Interwet-LFI technology for GFR-PU structural, lightweight, and aesthetic composite applications to manufacture glass-fiber-reinforced polyurethane (GFR-PU) components. Using its autonomous and highly flexible Interwet-LFI technology, Cannon can produce a wide range of fillers with a fiber volume fraction (FVF) of up to 50%. The spraying process enables adjustment of fiber loading and reinforcement length, ranging from 12.5 to 100 mm, to achieve optimal tensile strength. Additionally, fiber orientation is controlled through deflectors positioned near the spray head nozzles, allowing the production of thicker load-bearing components as well as shallow and/or deep-ribbed, thin-walled parts with more uniform material distribution.
In February 2023, Saint-Gobain Group, a France-based manufacturer of construction materials, acquired U.P. Twiga Fiberglass Ltd. for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Saint-Gobain seeks to reinforce its market leadership and broaden its portfolio of solutions for lightweight and sustainable construction. U.P. Twiga Fiberglass Ltd. is an India-based company specializing in the production of high-quality fiberglass roving for a wide range of industrial applications.
