The global construction films market size is expected to reach USD 25.3 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.3% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Construction films are thin films or laminates used for applications, such as window glass building systems. They assist in converting the existing windows, roofs, walls to contemporary standards and increase their energy-efficiency. Vapor barrier films and solar films are the most widely used products as they reduce heat transfer. These films work on the principles of radiation and convection respectively to reduce heat flow.
They are used in various industrial sectors, such as petrochemicals, refinery, residential, and commercial buildings. Window film and vapor barriers are also being utilized to effectively reduce the environmental impact of buildings in numerous key areas, such as thermal resistance, water, and indoor environment. Advancements in technology used in plastic manufacturing have created a lucrative potential for the market growth over the past few years. The use of nanotechnology in the extrusion process has enabled manufacturers to develop plastic raw materials with enhanced strength and durability. The high-quality films produced using the method have high demand in eco-efficient construction.
In addition, rising usage in green building retrofits due to government initiatives, especially in APAC, aimed at reducing CO2 emissions will boost the demand further. Another factor boosting the prospects of construction films is the increasing trend of using lightweight materials in the construction industry. Glass- and plastics-based materials are increasingly replacing the heavy metal components, hence bolstering their demand in applications, such as roofing, walls, plumbing, and building envelope.
