Facade Systems Market Dynamics
Driver: Increase in construction activities.
Due to rapid industrialization, the demand for commercial, non-commercial, residential, and non-residential buildings has been rising. The construction of manufacturing plants, shopping centers, warehouses, factories, stadiums, schools, colleges, hotels, restaurants, offices, public facilities (including government buildings), and others is increasing rapidly. This increment in construction activities has a direct impact on the need for sustainable decorative building construction solutions, which increased the demand for facade systems.
Restraint: Government regulations for carbon emissions
In recent years, environmental protection has been an important concern for many regions, along with possible serious legal implications. Environmental pollution from glass, aluminum, fiberglass, fiber cement, plasterboard, magnesium-oxide board, PVC board manufacturers, and the chemical industry, has been a cause for concern. These industries provide raw materials for facade systems. This has led to the adherence to stringent emission regulations by the stakeholders in the facade systems market.
Opportunities: Rise in demand for green buildings
Green building, also known as sustainable building or green construction, is the concept of designing and constructing structures and processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout the life cycle of a building, which starts from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and ends at the deconstruction of the structure. These structures provide various benefits such as excellent energy-saving efficiency, efficient utilization of resources, sustainability, higher resale value, and eco-friendly in nature. The increase in demand for green buildings will propel the market of facade systems.
Challenges: Need for regular and expensive maintenance for optimum performance
In order to maintain water tightness and increase longevity, there is a requirement for proper routine maintenance of various facade systems such as cladding, curtain walls, sidings, and EIFS. It is also important to remove the dust particles which is accumulated on the surfaces of the systems and help to prevent any organic growth. It also helps in maintaining the appearance of the structures. It is becoming a challenge to repair the damaged part of the facade systems if it is broken or dented. In addition to this, the claddings, which are mainly made up of metals, are easily dented during the repair and maintenance process if experts do not handle it. Hence, the cost and time associated with repairing could be a major challenge faced by the facade systems.
Ecosystem
By End Use Industry, the Non-Residential sector accounted for the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The non-residential sectors are those areas that are not used for living purposes. The non-residential sector includes manufacturing plants, commercial offices, warehouses, factories, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, mills, and so on. Due to the rising population, increasing concern towards sustainability, rapid urbanization, and other increase in the demand for residential and non-residential structures, which includes workspaces, shopping malls, etc., fuelled the market of facade systems in the forecast period.
By Type, the EIFS segment accounted for the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Exterior Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFS), sometimes known as synthetic stucco, is a type of cladding that gives an insulated finished surface to wall exteriors. They are put in numerous layers over the outer sheathing to create exterior cladding that is energy-efficient, fire-resistant, low-maintenance, attractive, and easily adaptable in nature. The EIFS provides several benefits, such as excellent insulation ability, lightweight, and easily converted into shapes and patterns to attain different aesthetic effects. In addition to this, this system also provides protection from extreme weather conditions, fire, and moisture and helps in increasing the life of the structure. Due to these several benefits of the EIFS, this segment will achieve the highest CAGR in the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is projected to account for the highest CAGR in the facade systems market during the forecast period
The Asia Pacific region is the hub of foreign investments and growing industrial sectors largely due to low-cost labor and cheap availability of lands. Due to this, construction activities are increasing, which helps to increase the demand for facade systems. In addition to this, the demand for facade systems in this region is also attributed to rapid urbanization, high growth in the infrastructure sector for aesthetic appeal, rising concerns towards sustainability, energy efficiency, and others.
