Abstract

Fiber‐reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs) are versatile materials with applications in diverse fields such as transportation, construction, and electronics. With the composites market expected to reach 15.5 Mt by 2026, increasing the sustainability of FRPCs is imperative. The main factors driving the sustainability of FRPCs, namely end‐of‐life management and recyclability, the use of natural, bio‐based, and sustainable materials, as well as biodegradability and product simplification are presented and discussed.
