Flat Glass Market 2030: Analyzing Market Penetration Strategies

The global flat glass market size is expected to reach USD 409.49 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period. The market is projected to be driven by increasing construction spending and the need to improve energy efficiency in buildings. The rising preference for architecture, which increases natural daylight in the house is propelling the consumption of glass in roofs and facades, which is expected to play a key role in boosting the product demand over the coming years. Moreover, a growing emphasis on economic recovery by encouraging investments in infrastructural developments is anticipated to drive market growth over the forecast period.

For instance, to substantiate the economic importance of infrastructure, the Department of the Treasury in the U.S. carried out a study of 40 key proposed infrastructure projects. As per this study, the completion or availability of these 40 projects can provide economic benefits of up to USD 500 billion to 1 trillion to the country. Technological upgrades and product innovation in construction glass applications have positively benefited the market growth in the recent past. However, the market growth was obstructed in 2020 owing to the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in negative sales revenue of key companies.
