Top Ten Companies in Technical and Advanced Structural Ceramics

Sep 2012| AVM084A| BCC Publishing

Report Highlights

  • The North American market for technical and advanced structural ceramics was $3.2 billion in 2010 and $3.4 billion in 2011. This value is expected to increase to $4.4 billion in 2016, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1% between 2011 and 2016.
  • Bioceramics, the largest segment constituting 64% of the 2011 total technical and advanced ceramics market, should continue to hold that much of the market over the next five years.
  • The advanced armor and military market is expected to show slower growth than in the recent past due to the gradual U.S. disengagement from Iraq and Afghanistan.
