Polymer price data for structural components
Structural components take on load-bearing functions and have to absorb high mechanical loads – glass-fibre-reinforced thermoplastics and thermoset, fibre-reinforced materials (resins and glass fibre reinforcements) are used for this, and their prices largely determine component costs.

Why polymer prices matter for structural components:
Structural components consist mainly of fibre-reinforced thermoplastics as well as resin and glass fibre raw materials; price movements in polymers, resins and reinforcing fibres feed straight through to production costs.
Material-intensive components: load-bearing parts require reinforced plastics, whose price accounts for a large share of the cost.
Glass fibre as a cost factor: alongside the base polymer or resin, prices for glass fibre reinforcements also shape the calculation.
Competing materials: PA-GF, PBT-GF and resin and glass fibre raw materials compete with one another – and their prices develop differently.
