The world's leading producer of commercial grade carbon fiber is Zoltek, based in St. Louis. Their ticker symbol is ZOLT. They are not only the largest producer, but they are able to bring on new production more quickly and cost-effectively than others, and are currently adding a great deal of capacity to try to keep up with the world's fast-growing demand for carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is stronger than steel and lighter than aluminum. It is also not subject to corrosion from water or salt. Zoltek supplies carbon fiber to wind turbines, for airline brakes, sporting goods, automotive uses and much more.
