Fiber reinforced polypropylene composite

A composite having an elongation at break in the range from 2.5 to 7.5%, the composite comprising:

• a) 25 to 92.5 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composite, of a polypropylene base material having a melt flow rate MFR2 (230° C., 2.16 kg) measured according to ISO 1133 in the range of from 3.0 to 140.0 g/10 min, wherein the polypropylene base material is;
• i) a heterophasic propylene copolymer (HECO) comprising a (semicrystalline) polypropylene (PP) as a matrix in which an elastomeric propylene copolymer (EC) is dispersed;
• or
• ii) a propylene homopolymer (hPP);
• and
• b) 5 to 50 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composite, of a cellulose-based fiber (CF);
• and
• c) 2.5 to 25 wt. %, based on the total weight of the composite, of a polymer-based fiber (PF) having a melting temperature of ≥210° C.,
• wherein the weight ratio of the cellulose-based fiber (CF) and the polymer-based fiber (PF) [(CF)/(PF)] is in the range of 2.0 to 20.0.
