Silicone Structural Glazing Market Predicted to Grow at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2023 to 2032

Pune, India, December 18, 2017 /MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future published a half cooked research report on global Silicone Structural Glazing Market. The Silicone Structural Glazing Market is expected to grow at 7.6% CAGR during the period 2023 to 2032.

Market Highlights

Global silicone structural glazing market has witnessed gradual growth in recent years, and is expected to witness steady growth in the forecast period. The global silicone structural glazing market is primarily driven by growth in industrial and commercial construction activities, and technological advancements in the glass industry. Silicone structural glazing is a method utilizing a silicone adhesive to attach glass, metal, or other panel material to the structure of a building. Wind-load and other impact loads on the facade are transferred from the glass or panel, through the structural silicone sealant to the structure of the building. The silicone sealant must maintain adhesive and cohesive integrity as the facade is subjected to wind-load and thermal stresses. Structural glazing (SG) is a high performance application and not all silicone sealants are suitable for this application. Only silicone sealants that have been developed and tested specifically for structural glazing applications, should be used. The growth of the commercial, public, and residential buildings sectors, along with the rising need for green buildings are the key factors fueling the growth of the silicone structural glazing market. The market has opportunities owing to the increase in R&D activities by companies to reduce costs and improve the quality of glass and other raw materials and the rise in investments in the building & construction sector, which will drive the demand for glass facade systems. In contrast, factors such as government regulations for carbon emissions and high capital investments required restrain the growth of the global silicone structural glazing market.

The growing demand for advanced facade systems in the building & construction sector, along with environmental concerns and energy efficiency in buildings are the key factors driving the growth of the silicone structural glazing market. The rising adoption of the smart city concept will be one of the latest trends that will lead to the growth of the silicone structural glazing market. The growing preference of the people to live in urban locations induce the governments of the countries around the world to focus on initiatives such as smart cities to improve the life of urban people. These initiatives will aim at developing plans for intelligent networking of energy, water supplies, lighting, and mobility systems.        

The Global Silicone Structural Glazing Market is expected to grow at ~ 8.5% CAGR during the forecast period.
