Silicone Structural Glazing Market Research, 2031
The global silicone structural glazing market size was valued at $38.1 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $81.6 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2022 to 2031. Silicone structural glazing can be defined as a type of curtain wall technique that uses silicone sealant to retain the glass and other façade panels to the underlying framing structure.
Structural glaze offers a building highly aesthetic appeal along with various functional benefits. It performs better than a masonry wall in preventing the building from wind and rain. Its maintenance is easy and cost-effective. Moreover, it makes least use of metal components, thus becoming ideal for environments with high humidity. In addition, silicone structural glazing can accommodate extensive dynamic forces acting on the structural glaze, such as high temperature variations, wind loads, dead load of curtain wall, and others stress and shear forces on the building. It allows the architects to create dramatic and unique facades. Silicone structural glazing technology promotes optimum sound and heat insulation. The elimination of thermal breaks and unnecessary metal can further reduce building costs along with the aforementioned advantages. Such advantages boost the silicone structural glazing industry.
Silicone structural glazing experiences an increase in demand, especially in the commercial building sector of developed regions such as North America, Europe, and countries such as UAE, and Saudi Arabia in the Middle East. This is attributed to rise in demand for office spaces, rise in urban population, and positive business prospect. Various builders across the world, especially in the above-mentioned regions thus invest in the commercial building construction projects. Moreover, the building improvement projects are undertaken across the world to make the buildings more energy efficient and safe for the inhabitants. This factor also plays important role in driving demand for silicone structural glazing. Furthermore, rise and recovery in tourism industry has increased demand for elegant hospitality buildings; thereby; driving demand in silicone structural glazing market.
In addition, major manufacturers of silicone structural glazing components offer a wide range of products and services, to meet the customer needs. They constantly innovate their offerings to stay competitive in the market. In March 2021, for instance, Guardian Glass introduced Guardian Bird1st™ Etch glass, a highly innovative offering which is anti-reflective in nature. This feature makes it suitable for application in storefronts and other commercial showcases.
COVID-19 spread rapidly across various countries and regions, causing an enormous impact on the lives of people and the overall community. It began as a human health condition and later became a significant threat to global trade, economy, and finance. The COVID-19 pandemic halted the production of many components of silicone structural glazing due to lockdown. The economic slowdown initially resulted in reduced spending on various building residential and non-residential building construction projects. However, owing to the introduction of various vaccines, the severity of COVID-19 pandemic has significantly reduced. As of mid-2022 the number of COVID-19 cases have diminished significantly. This has led to the full-fledged reopening of silicone structural glazing component manufacturing companies at their full-scale capacities. Moreover, it has been more than two years since the outbreak of this pandemic, and many companies have already shown notable signs of recovery.
Furthermore, the commercial building sector is strongly expected to witness growth in the coming years. This is attributable to increase in urban population, and increase in service sector job opportunities. Such factors are anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for the silicone structural glazing market growth.
The silicone structural glazing market is segmented into Type, Material and Application. On the basis of type, the market is categorized into four-sided structural, two-sided structural, total vision systems, and other. On the basis of material, the market is categorized into new glass, metal, and other. On the basis of application, it is categorized into residential and non-residential.
