The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Commercial Aircraft Carbon Brakes Market Report by Aircraft Type (Narrow-body Aircraft, Wide-body Aircraft, and Others), Material (Petroleum Pitch, Polyacrylonitrile), Manufacturing Process (Chemical Vapor Infiltration, Liquid Phase Infiltration), End User (OEM, Aftermarket), and Region 2025-2033“, The global commercial aircraft carbon brakes market size reached USD 1,080.4 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 1,969.1 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.55% during 2025-2033.In the aviation sector, carbon brakes have become a favored option for commercial aircraft due to their ability to decelerate the plane by generating friction between rotating and fixed discs. These brakes are known for their remarkable durability, capable of enduring high temperatures, abrupt changes in temperature, and mechanical strain, thus presenting a more advantageous alternative to conventional steel brakes. Retrofitting specific aircraft models with carbon brakes enhances fuel efficiency and lowers CO2 emissions. Presently, these sophisticated braking systems are extensively utilized in smaller, short-haul commercial aircraft, attributed to improvements in manufacturing and maintenance practices that have rendered them more cost-effective.
Commercial Aircraft Carbon Brakes Market Trends and Drivers:
The commercial aircraft carbon brakes market is witnessing substantial expansion, propelled by the rise in global trade and the growing demand for advanced braking systems in the aviation sector. The transition to carbon brakes is accelerating, attributed to their various advantages such as extended maintenance periods, lower operational costs, improved energy absorption, and efficient heat dissipation. Moreover, governments across the globe are implementing more stringent regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions from aviation, which is further enhancing the demand for carbon brakes in commercial aircraft. In addition, the increasing number of air travelers, heightened consumer spending, and a surge in business travel are anticipated to drive the market's growth.
