Some manufacturers are choosing polymer-metal composites that provide the equivalent weight of metal, but also allow for the design freedom provided by thermoplastics.

Long carbon and glass fiber reinforced thermoplastics are structural injection molding composites with metal replacement performance.
Long fiber thermoplastics (LFTs) are fiber-reinforced composites used to replace metals or other under-performing thermoplastic solutions that don't stand up to the needs of demanding structural applications.

Some of the primary benefits of engineered thermoplastics when compared to metal include:
Excellent strength to weight ratios approaching even no-ferrous metals
