Dublin, Feb. 29, 2016 -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/p2rjnq/worldwide_lfrt) has announced the addition of the "Worldwide LFRT Competitive Analysis and Leadership Study 2015" report to their offering.

The high performance characteristics of Long Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastics (LFRT), compared to traditional and other competing materials, are likely to boost its demand in different application segments. The LFRT market is shifting from a seller push to a buyer pull situation. SABIC and Ticona are the market leaders with diversified product portfolio, strong geographical reach and high strategic initiatives. Over the next five years suppliers, focusing on the emerging end-user industries and emerging countries are likely to capture larger market share in global LFRT market.

Leading LFRT suppliers have started focusing on emerging end-use application industries, such as transportation (heavy trucks, buses, and rails), and electrical & electronics. In the last five years, suppliers have increased their production capacity in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, mainly driven by the combining effects of increasing penetration level of thermoplastic composites and better cost-performance characteristics of LFRTs.

The companies producing LFRT are exploring market opportunities with starkly different strategies. The author has analyzed the global LFRT market and has come up with a comprehensive research report, Worldwide LFRT Competitive Analysis and Leadership Study 2015. This report offers a full competitive analysis from target markets to product mapping, and from selling strategy to production capabilities.
