The global solar control glass market reached a value of US$ 5.46 billion in 2021. Looking forward, the market is projected to reach a value of US$ 9.38 billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.20% during 2022-2027. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, the analyst is continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different End-use sectors. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
Solar control glass refers to a kind of glass with a special coating that is precisely manufactured to reduce the extent of heat entering a specific space. The solar control coating on the glass reflects heat from the sun back, outside of the area it has been installed on, such as a building, automotive, or a greenhouse. It significantly reduces the amount of heat that can pass through, thereby providing a more usable and comfortable space. Along with absorbing and reflecting heat, these glasses also filter out light and offer reduced glare, thus maintaining a cozier interior in summers and reducing the need for air-conditioning. A varied range of aesthetics, such as reflective, tinted, and neutral, are offered by different types of solar control glasses. A combination of solar control glasses with LOW-E thermal insulation in dual glazing windows with self-cleaning systems provides optimal temperature all year round.
The global market is primarily driven by the increasing adoption of solar control glasses in automobiles. Since they reduce the heat load on the vehicle while minimizing the need for air conditioning, this results in higher mileage and reduced fuel consumption. This is further supported by the widespread preference of consumers toward cost-effective and energy-efficient vehicles. Significant demand for solar control glass in residential and commercial buildings due to the rising awareness regarding the high air conditioning costs is also acting as a major growth-inducing factor. In addition to this, rapid urbanization, the escalating concerns regarding carbon dioxide emissions, growing consciousness regarding climate change, and the expansion of smart construction activities are some of the other factors contributing to the market growth across the globe.
This report provides an analysis of the key trends in each sub-segment of the global solar control glass market, along with forecasts at the global, regional and country level from 2022-2027. The report has categorized the market based on glass type, coating method, nature and application.
