Global Double Glazing Glass Market - 2022-2029

Market Overview

Double glazing glass market reached US$ YY million in 2021 and is estimated to record significant growth by reaching up to US$ YY million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period (2022-2029).

A double glazing glass unit comprises two panes of glass separated by a spacer bar and sealed with two sealants to create a single airtight unit with an air space between them.

Because they provide benefits that enhance the construction, double glazing glass units produce comfortable houses and structures. They can help with concerns like heat in rooms, preventing unwanted excessive heat from the sun, keeping noise out and making the home safer. The transparent coating on one side of the glass reflects the heat into the building, decreasing heat loss through the window.

The primary benefits of transforming the global double-glazing glass market dynamic are greater security, reduced noise transmission, UV protection, increased energy efficiency and improved thermal and acoustic qualities.

The huge growth in demand for double-glazing glass in the construction & infrastructure sector due to improved energy-efficient qualities results in an overall reduction in energy consumption, boosting the worldwide double-glazing glass market. In addition, because of the exceptional features of double-glazing glass, green buildings are increasingly gaining favor to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption while providing enhanced visual structures.

Market Dynamics

The tremendous expansion of the building & construction sector in developing and non-developing regions is boosting the market growth opportunities for double glazing glasses to grow in the forecast period.

The tremendous expansion of the building & construction sector in developing and non-developing regions are boosting the market growth opportunities for double glazing glasses to grow in the forecast period

The global double-glazing glass market is benefiting from a significant increase in demand in the construction & infrastructure sector, owing to improved energy-efficient attributes that reduce overall energy consumption. Expanding the building and construction industries in Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa has provided new opportunities for double-glazing glassmakers.

Growing population, increasing urbanization and industrialization and rising wealth and living standards have contributed to Asia-Pacific's building and construction business. As per UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs, 55% of the world's population already lives in cities, which is expected to climb to 68% by 2050. As the region's population shifts, there will be a great demand for energy-efficient residential and commercial buildings.

Growing development projects in India, China and other Asian countries have increased demand for insulating glazed units, which has boosted demand for double glazing glass in the commercial sector. In addition, the expanding IT/ITes sector is boosting the use of glass in facade applications.

Furthermore, double-glazing glass's excellent capabilities are gaining favor in green buildings to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption while providing increased aesthetic structures.

Green buildings are energy-efficient, using less water, maximizing energy, conserving natural resources and producing far less waste. These structures save operating costs while significantly improving the quality of life.

Furthermore, Double glazing glass has outstanding thermal and acoustic properties and as a result, it is becoming increasingly popular in green architecture to improve energy efficiency. As a result, the market for double-glazing glass is predicted to rise due to the growing relevance of green building to improve energy efficiency.

Lack of awareness of double glazing glass is the primary hurdle to the growth of the market

Despite the exceptional qualities and higher performance of double-glazing glass, the population lacks understanding and awareness about the benefits of the goods.

According to industry analysts, in underdeveloped nations such as India, outsiders and industry insiders have an unacceptable understanding of double-glazing glass and solutions. The lack of consumer understanding of double-glazing glass's long-term energy-efficient solutions is a stumbling block to the market's expansion.

Furthermore, double glazing glass offers a few disadvantages, which hurdle the market growth for the product. For instance, double glazing glass cannot be repaired as the air gets trapped between the two panes of glass, providing an insulating layer. Condensation will form between the panes if the seal isn't airtight. The panes cannot be pulled apart and mended once they have been bonded; thus, it will be necessary to replace the window.

In addition, heat trap is another fact adding challenges to the market's growth. The heat-trapping benefit is advantageous during the winter, but keeping heat inside during summer might result in a hot and uncomfortable space. Many homes shade their windows to keep the heat out, but this is an extra cost. Furthermore, double-glazed windows may conflict with earlier styles because they have a contemporary appearance. The home's overall appearance will be startling if a homeowner does not replace all of the windows with double-glazed windows.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the double glazing glass market in the construction and infrastructure sectors. Construction and infrastructure companies have been forced to operate at zero or partial capacities due to the supply chain disruption, which has resulted in delays or non-arrival of raw materials, disrupted financial flows and growing absenteeism among production line workers, resulting in reduced double glazing glass demand.

Furthermore, Several countries have enforced a shutdown to prevent the virus from spreading further. COVID-19 has had the most serious impact on Europe and North America. Companies must cope with the pandemic's unexpected impact and work efficiently to enhance their supply chain and distribution network to deal with market swings.

Segment Analysis

The global double glazing glass market is segmented based on material, spacer thickness, application, end-user and region.

The glass segment in the double glazing market holds a prominent position due to the rising demand for the segment in the industrial, residential and commercial industries; different thicknesses of glass are utilized depending on the use.

The global double glazing glass market is segmented based on material into glass, frame and spacer, sealant and others.

In the double glazing glass market, glass holds most of the market share in volume and value in the conjecture time frame. Depending on the use, different glass thicknesses are utilized in industrial, residential and commercial industries. Major glass producers like Nippon Sheet Glass, AGC Inc. and Saint-Gobain offer a diverse range of glass and coatings to produce insulated glazing units worldwide.

Furthermore, the sealant is one of the most important components of the double-glazed window. The sealant ensures that the customers are secure and comfortable by sealing the entire building. Double-glazed windows that are properly sealed ensure that the entire structure is airtight. Sealant firms use organic sealants to ensure air permeability. Polyurethane, hotmelt, polysulphide and silicone are some sealants used for double glazing windows. The sealants are used in conjunction with PIB, a spacer bar edge.
