  • Details:
  • Suppliers of carbon fiber, glass fiber, and high-performance polymers have some leverage due to the specialized nature of their products.
  • However, strong OEM relationships and multi-sourcing strategies can mitigate supplier power.

5.4 Bargaining power of buyers — Moderate

  • Label: Medical device OEMs and large dental companies
  • Details:
  • Large global OEMs can negotiate on price, volume, and development terms, and may consider alternative materials or in-house solutions.
  • Nevertheless, once a composite material is integrated and approved in a device system, switching costs and regulatory implications limit buyer power.

5.5 Threat of substitutes — Moderate

  • Label: Metals, ceramics, and advanced polymers
  • Details:
  • Titanium, stainless steel, cobalt-chrome, and ceramics remain well-established and are not easily displaced in all applications.
  • High-performance unreinforced polymers can substitute composites in some lower-load uses.
  • In applications demanding radiolucency, weight reduction, and bone-like modulus, composites retain a clear advantage.

6. Strategic implications (brief)
