Façade Materials Market Analysis
Façade materials are required for a structural design pattern of the building in the architectural industry. These architectural materials are used for the attractive modern look of the walls. Buildings are designed, built, and powered up by the help of the facade system. Facade materials provide lateral and vertical resistance to wind, fire resistance, and thermal resistance to buildings. Moreover, these materials attached to light steel walling and terracotta tiles. From multi-story offices to residential houses, façade materials play a significant role. A façade being the principal front of the building brings imparts an aesthetic appeal to the exterior side of it.
COVID-19 impact analysis
- The global market for façade materials is severely impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Due to the suspension in the building construction industry, the facade global market is likely to see a temporary downfall.
- As more than 60% of the construction activities are on halt in a pandemic situation, the demand for façade materials has declined significantly. This is attributed to the fact that residential architecture segment is the largest consumer of façade materials.
- Furthermore, the suspended movement on construction sites coupled with the suspension of industrial activities may result in decline in demand for façade materials during the forecast period.
- The pandemic has forced many industries in the market to nearly stop their operations to comply with the government regulations such as social distancing.
- Owing to the lockdown implemented across various countries, national and international transport have been hampered, which has significantly impacted the supply chain of numerous industries across the globe, thereby increasing the supply–demand gap.
- Thus, insufficiency in raw material supply will further hamper the production rate of façade materials, thus negatively impacting the market growth.
Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, and impact analysis:
The important driving factors of the façade materials market is rise in construction-related activities. These materials have the ability to transmit heat, which creates warmer interiors, hence, the surge in demand for these materials is likely to increase in colder regions. Furthermore, rise in the urban population adapting to modern building designs significantly contributes toward the growth of the market. In Asia-Pacific countries such as India, the schemes launched by the government such as the National Urban Housing Fund and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana(PMAY) are expected to result in rise in residential construction projects. UK and Germany are expected to have further investments in hotels, medical centers, warehouses, and garages construction from public and private investors. The manufactures are further focusing on less costly designs. Furthermore, detailing will hamper the market growth as the detailing of designs is expensive. The price factor will act as the major restraint of the facade materials market.
The global façade material market is expected to witness considerable growth and hence the market is segmented depending on various key factors. By product type, façade materials are segmented into ventilated, non-ventilated, and others. Ventilated type facade materials are developed to protect the walls of the buildings against high-level action of rain and wind. Ventilated façade creates a separate open cavity between the outside and interior wall, which allows the exchange of air contained between them, whereas non-ventilated façade materials are used for no ventilation or air cavity purpose.
Some Surge applications of the facade materials:
- Durability
- Safety and security
- Thermal insulation
- Weather tightness
- Lightweight
- Long lasting and environmental friendly
