Ongoing Research Report
In the News
March 2020: According to the statistical data estimates of European Environment Agency (EEA), noise pollution is a growing problem across Europe and many people are unaware of its impact on health. Further, the report also stated that 22 million people suffer chronic high annoyance and 6.5 million people suffer chronic high sleep disturbance in Europe.
Introduction to Soundproof Curtains
Soundproof curtains are a noise prevention or reduction or elimination product which comprises of curtains made up of acoustic materials that diminishes the sound by absorbing the sound waves produced by different sources. The acoustic material is manufactured from thicker sound absorbing material such as fiberglass insulation or glass wool. It helps to optimize spaces by providing control over light and sound reverberation and can also serve the purpose by saving energy along with the reduction in the transfer of heat and light passing through buildings. Soundproof curtains are also widely used in industry as acoustic enclosures and screens for the reduction of noise from machinery units like pumps, fans and compressors.
Market Size and Forecast
Increased advancements in noise blocking and insulating material technology and growing building & construction industry along with the rising demand from commercial and industrial sectors coupled with health and environmental concerns across the globe are some of the significant factors boosting the market growth.
The soundproof curtains market is anticipated to record a significant CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2020-2028. The market is segmented by material into glass wool, rock wool, fiber glass, natural fabrics and plastic foam. Among these segments, the segment for glass wool is anticipated to hold the leading share in the market on account of its favorable material properties such as non-combustible, non-degradable and flexible along with its provision of better acoustic and thermal insulation compared to other insulating materials.
Growth Drivers
Rapid Industrialization and Rising Noise Pollution to Boost the Market Growth
The demand for soundproof curtains market is influenced by excess noise and unnecessary sound in the environment owing to continuous traffic, transportation systems, heavy machineries, and rapid industrialization and urbanization. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that noise exposure levels should not exceed 70 dB over a 24-hour period, and 85 dB over a 1-hour period to avoid hearing impairment. Further, there is a necessity of noise blocking coverings on windows and doors on account of the growth in residential construction activities and increased number of malls, theaters and airports. Additionally, the market growth is attributed to rising eco-friendly infrastructure and sustainable construction. Moreover, factors such as increased demand for green buildings are anticipated to significantly expand the soundproof curtains market.
By Region
On the basis of regional analysis, the soundproof curtains market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region.
The market for soundproof curtains in Europe is anticipated to hold the largest share in the market on account of presence of leading market players in the region which manufacture and market soundproof curtains. Moreover, the stringent enforcement of environmental regulations to control sound pollution and growing residential and commercial industries in this region further increases the product demand. The market in Asia Pacific region is predicted to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period as a result of rise in infrastructure projects and increasing per capita income in this region. Additionally, expanding construction activities and residential buildings owing to the easy availability of raw material and labor, especially in the countries such as China and India, further raise the demand for soundproof curtains.
