Insulation Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing regulatory support

Energy prices are growing in along with increased demand for energy in both developed and emerging nations. Insulation has been a viable remedy for this issue in recent years. Insulated homes can reduce their annual energy expenses by up to 20% since insulation lowers the costs associated with heating and cooling in the summer and the winter, respectively. Approximately 45 million American homes were found to be under-insulated in a 2016 Harvard School of Public Health study, which indicates a significant opportunity for insulation in the country. The advanced status of the building industry in the region has benefitted the re-insulation business, despite the slower rate of development in the housing sector in the U.S. Systematic insulation installation may save a building's cooling and heating expenses by up to 18%, according to a U.S. EPA study. A building can meet overall energy efficiency requirements by using spray PU foams and stiff PU foams, which are commonly used as insulation in construction to stop losses associated with heating and cooling.

Driver: Increasing demand for residential and industrial insulation

A decline in housing demand and the nation's appalling financial situation contributed to a historic decline in real estate prices in the U.S. during the 2008–09 economic slump. Recently, though, the pattern has reversed, with house prices rising in 17 of the 20 largest cities. This may have to do with the rising demand for homes in the United States, which is fuelling the expansion of the new home insulation industry. European nations, who are only now beginning to recover from the dismal economic development of not too long ago, are showing similar tendencies. Since re-insulation can transform under-insulated homes into contemporary, energy-efficient homes, the demand for residential re-insulation is a major factor driving the insulation business.  The industrial sector makes extensive use of insulation, particularly for thermal and acoustic purposes. Based on the location and operational procedures, each plant has a different demand for insulation. There are several applications for insulation, including stacks, incinerators, turbines, exhausts, and breechings.

Restraint: Volatile raw material prices

Polyethylene, elastomers, and extruded polystyrene (EPS), which are components of plastic foam insulation, are petroleum-derived materials that are processed downstream. The instability in crude oil price in the worldwide market is therefore a key problem for the insulation business, as it makes it impossible to obtain an ideal pricing range for insulating products. Therefore, under very bad circumstances, there is always a chance of losing market share to other categories, such glass fiber insulation. A substantial percentage of the world’s crude oil production is centered in Middle Eastern nations such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, the UAE, and Kuwait. The price of crude oil is largely influenced by political unpredictability in these nations.  The supply-demand balance is another significant element influencing crude oil prices, which contributes to the volatile character of crude oil pricing. The price of crude oil in the United States dropped to less than USD 28 a barrel in 2016, marking the first time since 2003 that this had happened.

Research Methodology

A three-pronged approach was followed for deducing the smart home market estimates and forecasts. The process has three steps: information procurement, analysis, and validation. The whole process is cyclical, and steps repeat until the estimates are validated. The three steps are explained in detail below:

Information procurement: Information procurement is one of the most extensive and important stages in our research process, and quality data is critical for accurate analysis. We followed a multi-channel data collection process for insulation market to gather the most reliable and current information possible.

  • We buy access to paid databases such as Hoover’s and Factiva for company financials, industry information, white papers, industry journals, SME journals, and more.
  • We tap into Grand View’s proprietary database of data points and insights from active and archived monitoring and reporting.
  • We conduct primary research with industry experts through questionnaires and one-on-one phone interviews.
  • We pull from reliable secondary sources such as white papers and government statistics, published by organizations like WHO, NGOs, World Bank, etc., Key Opinion Leaders (KoL) publications, company filings, investor documents, and more.
  • We purchase and review investor analyst reports, broker reports, academic commentary, government quotes, and wealth management publications for insightful third-party perspectives.

Analysis: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilized different methods of insulation market data depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Research Efforts: Bottom-up Approach for estimating and forecasting demand size and opportunity, top-down Approach for new product forecasting and penetration, and combined approach of both Bottom-up and Top-down for full coverage analysis.

  • Value-Chain-Based Sizing & Forecasting: Supply-side estimates for understanding potential revenue through competitive benchmarking, forecasting, and penetration modeling.

  • Demand-side estimates for identifying parent and ancillary markets, segment modeling, and heuristic forecasting.

  • Qualitative Functional Deployment (QFD) Modelling for market share assessment.

Market formulation and validation: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilize different methods of data analysis depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Formulation: This step involves the finalization of market numbers. This step on an internal level is designed to manage outputs from the Data Analysis step.

  • Data Normalization: The final market estimates and forecasts are then aligned and sent to industry experts, in-panel quality control managers for validation.

  • This step also entails the finalization of the report scope and data representation pattern.

  • Validation: The process entails multiple levels of validation. All these steps run in parallel, and the study is forwarded for publishing only if all three levels render validated results.

Insulation Market Categorization:

The insulation market was categorized into three segments, namely product (Glass Wool, Mineral Wool, EPS, XPS, CMS Fibers, Calcium Silicate, Aerogel, Cellulose, PIR, Phenolic Foam, Polyurethane), end-use (Construction, Industrial, HVAC & OEM, Transportation, Appliances, Furniture, Packaging,), and regions (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Central & South America, Middle East & Africa).

Segment Market Methodology:

The insulation market was segmented into product, end-use, and regions. The demand at a segment level was deduced using a funnel method. Concepts like the TAM, SAM, SOM, etc., were put into practice to understand the demand. We at GVR deploy three methods to deduce market estimates and determine forecasts. These methods are explained below:
