Discover Flat Glass Coatings Market Upcoming Trends, Growth Drivers And Challenges – Forecast To 2030

Posted by Mrudula Anil Karmarkar on June 6th, 2023

The global flat glass coatings market size is expected to reach USD 10.3 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 20.4% during the forecast period, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising demand for mirror and glass facades from the commercial and residential sectors coupled with growing product adoption in the automotive & transportation sector is likely to drive the market during the forecast period.

The growing demand for renewable sources of energy and the rising number of solar installations across the globe are likely to increase the adoption of solar panels; thus, augmenting the demand for flat glass coatings. Moreover, favorable government regulations and rising awareness regarding energy scrutiny are anticipated to drive the product demand in architectural applications over the coming years. Countries such as Italy, the U.K., the U.S., Japan, China, India, and Germany, which are part of the Kyoto Protocol, have been introducing legislation to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Such measures across countries are also anticipated to drive the demand for flat glass coatings.

The water-based technology segment dominated the global market in 2021 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. Water-based technology is used widely, owing to its high strength and premium quality. The overall performance of the coating primarily depends on the utilization of raw materials, such as pigments, resins, and additives. However, nano-based technology is expected to ascend at a promising growth rate during the forecast period on account of the growing preference for advanced materials in the manufacturing industry.

The rising need for utilization of sustainable energy & reduction in carbon footprint along with favorable government policies aimed at reducing the consumption of fossil fuels is likely to propel the growth of the solar power sector. The growth in the solar module industry is another major factor driving the product demand in solar projects.

Flat glass is widely used in the construction of buildings in both commercials as well as residential sectors. The tremendous growth in the infrastructural developments across various emerging economies is likely to contribute to the market expansion during the forecast period.

Rising construction spending on account of rapid urbanization across the globe and infrastructural plans by various governments will continue to augment the market growth along with more focus on adopting green initiatives to become sustainable. The rapid growth in transport, renewable energy, social & commercial infrastructure, government accommodation, and defense infrastructure is further supporting the market growth. Furthermore, the rising number of green commercial building construction projects, particularly in North America, Asia Pacific, and MEA regions, is anticipated to fuel product demand during the forecast period.

Glass facades are becoming popular, particularly in the commercial building construction sector. Numerous technological innovations in glass technology have improved the overall performance in light transmission, thermal insulation, and modulating solar heat. In addition, innovations, such as double glazed, solar control, and thermal insulation, have also contributed to the increased product application in buildings.

Flat Glass Coatings Market Report Highlights

  • Asia Pacific dominated the global market and is projected to expand further at the fastest CAGR of 21.4% during the forecast period
  • Rising investments for infrastructure development and favorable regulations in APAC are the key factors driving the regional market
  • China was the leading player on account of its growing automobile industry and increasing government expenditure on infrastructural projects
  • Epoxy resins held considerable revenue share on account of their unique properties, such as mechanical strength, high thermal stability, electrical, heat resistance, adhesion, and mechanical resistance
  • In October 2016, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V expanded its coating production capability along with the construction of MSVD glass coater. These coaters are utilized to produce glass, which is performance efficient as well as is energy efficient and is low emissive

The global demand for green buildings has grown significantly during the past few years. Green buildings serve various social, environmental, as well as economic benefits. Flat glass coatings play a vital role in reducing the operational costs of the building. Thus, a rise in the construction of green buildings will directly contribute to market growth.

Water-based coating dominates the overall market, followed by solvent-based coating. Solvent-based coatings emit higher amounts of volatile organic compounds while drying. These compounds can affect the human health of individuals who are constantly exposed to these types of products. VOCs form the ground-level ozone layer and trap the heat, which leads to global warming. These may cause eye, skin, nose, throat, and respiratory tract irritation.  The VOCs emitted can lead to severe ill effects, such as cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, and various other diseases, on human health.

The construction industry has supplemented significant demand in the market. Increasing construction of amusement parks, corporate buildings, hotels, motels, hospitals, schools, and others is likely to supplement the demand for flat glass coatings in the upcoming years. Residential construction in multi-family and single-family segments is expected to rise owing to a rise in the demand for rental accommodation.
