Laminated Glass Market - By Type (Clear glass, Tinted or colored glass, Reflective glass), By Interlayer (Polyvinyl butyral, Sentryglas plus, Ethylene-vinyl acetate), By Application, End Use Industry & Forecast, 2024

Description

The Laminated Glass Market will grow at over 6.2% CAGR during 2024-2032, driven by urbanization and infrastructure development. According to World Bank data published in April 2023, 56% of the world's population, totaling 4.4 billion inhabitants, resided in urban areas. It further estimated that by 2050, nearly 7 of 10 people will live in cities. As urban population grows worldwide, there is a corresponding increase in construction activities to accommodate housing, commercial spaces, and public infrastructure. Laminated glass is widely used in modern urban architecture for offering safety, security, and aesthetic benefits. It is incorporated in skyscrapers, residential buildings, transportation hubs, and public facilities to enhance building aesthetics, noise reduction, and energy efficiency.

The rise in retrofitting activities to meet modern safety standards and energy efficiency requirements is boosting the demand for advanced glass solutions like laminated glass.

The laminated glass industry is classified based on type, interlayer, application, end-use and region.

The reflective glass segment will grow rapidly through 2032, owing to product's ability to control heat gain and enhance building energy efficiency. It features a reflective coating that minimizes solar heat transmission while maintaining visibility and natural light penetration. Reflective laminated glass is extensively used in commercial buildings, where reducing cooling costs and maintaining indoor comfort are critical. Its aesthetic appeal and glare reduction properties further contribute to its popularity in architectural applications.

The sentryglas plus segment will witness decent rise during 2024-2032, owing to the exceptional strength and durability compared to traditional polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayers. Sentryglas plus offers enhanced structural integrity, making it suitable for applications requiring high levels of safety and security, such as hurricane-resistant windows and balustrades. Its superior stiffness and resistance to delamination provide long-term performance benefits, even in harsh environmental conditions. The use of SentryGlas Plus in laminated glass assemblies allows architects to create innovative and sustainable building solutions.

Europe laminated glass industry size will grow at a steady pace through 2032, driven by stringent safety regulations, increasing construction activities, and growing adoption of sustainable building practices. Countries like Germany, France, and the United Kingdom are leading contributors to market growth, supported by investments in infrastructure development and renovation projects. The automotive sector in Europe also contributes to the demand for laminated glass, particularly for windshield applications that require enhanced safety features and acoustic insulation. With ongoing advancements in glass technology and sustainable manufacturing practices, Europe is expected to maintain its prominence in the market.
