"Allocation and contracts to Boeing Commercial Airplanes' 787 and Airbus' A350 XWB and A380 caused supply constraints, and suppliers raised prices to suit. As the aerospace companies were locked-in with long-term contracts, users of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic in other applications have suffered the brunt of this price hike." --wikipedia
