Aircraft Fairings Market to Reach USD 2.91 Billion by 2031 - Mordor Intelligence

Mordor Intelligence has released its latest Aircraft Fairings Market report, providing an in-depth analysis of market size, growth outlook, key trends, segmentation, and competitive dynamics shaping the global aviation supply chain.
Introduction

According to Mordor Intelligence, the Aircraft Fairings Market [https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/aircraft-fairings-market?utm_source=abnewswire] was valued at USD 1.96 billion in 2025. The market is projected to grow from USD 2.09 billion in 2026 to USD 2.91 billion by 2031, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.82% during the forecast period.

Aircraft fairings are aerodynamic structures designed to reduce drag, improve fuel efficiency, and protect critical aircraft components. They are widely used across commercial, military, and emerging aviation platforms, with increasing adoption of lightweight composite materials to meet fuel efficiency and emission reduction goals.

Key Market Trends

Increasing Use of Advanced Composite Materials: Aircraft manufacturers are steadily replacing traditional metal fairings with carbon-fiber reinforced polymers and advanced composites. These materials offer superior strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion resistance, and improved aerodynamic performance, driving long-term demand across new aircraft programs.

Strong Commercial Aircraft Production Backlog: Sustained order backlogs for narrow-body and wide-body commercial aircraft continue to support consistent demand for aircraft fairings. Rising air passenger traffic and fleet modernization programs are reinforcing production volumes, particularly for fuel-efficient aircraft models.

Emergence of New Aviation Platforms: The growing development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and advanced air mobility solutions is creating new growth opportunities for fairing manufacturers, especially for customized and lightweight designs.
