The global Natural Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market is rapidly evolving into a cornerstone of sustainable manufacturing. Valued at 33.52 USD Billion in 2024, NFRPs combine high-strength natural fibers—such as flax, hemp, jute, and wood—with polymer matrices to create lightweight, eco-friendly composites. As global industries accelerate their transition toward a circular economy and carbon neutrality, the market is projected to reach 69.05 USD Billion by 2035.

Market Highlights

Current Market Size (2024): 33.52 USD Billion

Forecast Value (2035): 69.05 USD Billion

CAGR: 6.79% (2025–2035)

Fiber Types: Cellulose Fibers (Dominant), Lignin, Starch, and Protein Fibers

Matrix Types: Thermoplastics (High growth), Thermosets, and Biodegradable Polymers

Processing Methods: Injection Molding (Primary), Extrusion, Compression Molding, and Pultrusion

Key Applications: Automotive, Construction, Packaging, Consumer Products, and Aerospace & Defense

Regional Trends: Europe (Early adopter), Asia-Pacific (Manufacturing hub), and North America

Market Growth Outlook

The industry is anticipated to grow from 35.79 USD Billion in 2025, driven largely by the Automotive and Construction sectors. A primary growth driver is the automotive industry's push for lightweighting to enhance fuel efficiency and extend the range of Electric Vehicles (EVs). NFRPs are increasingly used for interior door panels, seat backs, and dashboard components, offering a 20-30% weight reduction compared to traditional glass-fiber reinforced plastics while maintaining comparable mechanical properties.

With a robust CAGR of 6.79%, the market is also witnessing a surge in Construction and Consumer Products. In construction, wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are becoming the standard for decking and cladding due to their durability and resistance to biological decay. Furthermore, the development of Biodegradable Polymer matrices is opening new frontiers in sustainable packaging and single-use consumer goods. Future growth is anchored in the expansion of high-tech processing methods like pultrusion for structural components and the rising availability of high-purity natural fibers in the Asia-Pacific region. As regulatory pressure on synthetic microplastics intensifies, the role of natural-fiber composites as a high-performance, low-carbon alternative will remain a key market driver through 2035.

Avrah (FC: Andy Biersack) is an angel, and he had hoped to cease to exist after he was finished with his work as a specter. However, it seems that someone needs his help. This someone is tentatively named Rene. Rene and Avrah (though he had a different name back when he was alive) were a drunken one night stand ten years ago, and the two had only known each other for a week and a half before Av was shoved into a jail cell for punching a cop.

Avrah never thought to connect back with Rene, and the barely-of-drinking-age person had suspicious cargo. This character is up to personal interpretation, and may or may not have wanted to abort the fetus for some time. Maybe a lack of funds or growing attached to the 'thing' growing inside her body, but either way, months later a screaming infant was brought into the world.

The child, gender presentation/identity aside, became Rene's life. She may have worked part time and lived with parents, or got herself a new partner (or a slew of them) trying to find ground with herself and with her child. Over the years, her life was directed due to the child, and one day after school, she was distracted at the wheel. If she'd just turned it to the left instead of the right, the oncoming car would have hit her side of the van instead; she woke in the hospital with one less person in her world.

Her child was killed instantly, and Rene blamed herself deeply; so deeply in fact that it's summoned Avrah from his desire to move on. He doesn't look too different than he did in life, but his memories of his human life are few and far between. He wouldn't recognize Rene if he saw her, but she'd probably notice the finer details after seeing the features reflected in her child's expressions.

Wishing to cease to exist herself, hating the fact she's still alive when the light of her world is now gone, Rene needs a guiding light. It wasn't her desire to see him that attached Avrah to her; it was more about needing someone just like her. Avrah was treated like his thoughts, opinions, and sense of self were worthless, and it seems like it's been the same path for Rene too. Having a child stripped her of her original goals in life, and it seems like Avrah's going to have to step in to show her (and himself) that there's more to life than merely dedication to others.

Rene is going to be far from thrilled to see an ex shag-and-bag as her protector, and he doesn't know what on earth she's talking about. Her aspirations are up for grabs, her skill set and even species (witch or human are most likely) can be switched up. Rene is envisioned as a cis female with brown hair and green eyes, and isn't the bombshell mom type. Having a child took a toll on her body and she sure comes off as average.

This wanted ad isn't looking for a final (I don't plan them out), but for someone to make a human connection with. Their original run was brief, they only knew each other for a week give or take, and it wasn't romantic. It was drunken, primal need, with sexual arousal thrown in. Rene was popular and Av was a bad boy, the awkward one with a temper. If this human connection turns to a romance organically I'm not against it, but I don't want to force a romance if the characters themselves don't click.

Air quality over northern, central Taiwan poses health risk, say people who ride smoking scooters and burn ghost money every single fucking day.

Taipei, March 16 The sky was as gray as concrete over places north of central Taiwan Monday, when an air monitoring report by the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) said the air pollutant concentration in those areas had reached medium to high levels, posing a health risk. The air quality was the result not only of emissions from thousands of small factories, but the huge amount of polluting scooters and the more-or-less constant burning of incense and ghost money, the EPA report said. The officials attributed the poor air quality to the fact that most people believe that their actions have no consequences. They also predicted that the condition will last for two to three more decades “before we can actually make some sort of effort educating people without politicians trying to milk political capital out of the process.”
