Vacuum Insulation Market Report 2026

The vacuum insulation market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $10.78 billion in 2025 to $11.82 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in construction insulation demand, expansion of refrigeration and freezing equipment, adoption of silica-based insulation cores, increasing use of high-performance materials, demand for temperature-controlled logistics.

The vacuum insulation market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $17.04 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption in green building projects, rising demand from electric vehicle thermal systems, expansion of pharmaceutical cold chain infrastructure, growing focus on ultra-thin insulation solutions, increasing investments in advanced insulation materials. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of high-performance thermal insulation panels, rising demand for energy-efficient building materials, growing use of vacuum insulation in cold chain logistics, expansion of custom-shaped insulation solutions, enhanced focus on space-saving insulation designs.

The expansion of the construction industry is expected to propel the growth of the vacuum insulation market going forward. The construction industry encompasses various activities related to designing, planning, and constructing buildings, infrastructure, and other physical structures. Vacuum insulation in the construction industry provides highly efficient thermal insulation by creating a vacuum between panels, reducing heat transfer, and improving energy efficiency in buildings. This technology helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures while lowering energy consumption. For instance, in June 2023, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, US-based government administrations, in May 2023, privately owned home starts were occurring at a seasonally adjusted annual pace of 1,631,000, representing an increase of 21.7% in the revised April 2023 prediction of 1,340,000 and 5.7% in the May 2022 rate of 1,543,000. The number of privately owned home completions in May 2023 was 1,518,000 on a seasonally adjusted yearly basis, representing an increase of 5% over the May 2022 rate of 1,446,000 and 9.5% above the revised April 2023 estimate of 1,386,000. Therefore, the expansion of the construction industry is driving the growth of the vacuum insulation market.

Major companies operating in the vacuum insulation market are focused on introducing innovative insulating glass to gain a competitive edge in the market. Vacuum Insulating Glass (VIG) is an architectural glass that uses vacuum technology to create an insulating glass unit (IGU) with exceptional insulation performance. For instance, in February 2024, Kolbe Windows & Doors, a US-based manufacturer of windows and doors, partnered with LuxWall, a US-based provider of energy-efficient glass solutions. The partnership aims to launch vacuum-insulating glass (VIG) technology, specifically the Enthermal design, as a high-efficiency option for residential use. This collaboration provides energy-conscious customers with innovative and aesthetically pleasing glass solutions that significantly reduce heat gain and loss. By utilizing LuxWall's advanced VIG technology, they enhance glass performance for both new constructions and renovations. Together, they strive to meet the increasing demand for superior quality and energy efficiency in glass products.

In July 2024, the Fenzi Group, an Italy-based glass processing industry, acquired Thermoseal for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition enables Fenzi to integrate Thermoseal's innovative products into its portfolio, strengthening its position in the IG components market. This strategic move is set to promote collaboration and innovation in the glass processing sector, reflecting Fenzi’s dedication to excellence. Thermoseal is a UK-based manufacturer of insulated glass.
