The global silicone structural glazing market revenue was around US$ 41.0 billion in 2022 and is estimated to reach US$ 81.6 billion by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2031.

Silicone structural glazing is defined as a kind of curtain wall technique that utilizes silicone sealant to maintain the glass and other front panels to the underlying framing structure.
Structural glaze delivers a highly aesthetic appeal to the building along with different operational advantages. It functions better than a masonry wall in stopping the building from rain and wind. Its care is cost-effective and easy. Also, it causes the least use of metal components, therefore, becoming excellent for environments with high humidity. Silicone structural glazing is also capable of accommodating comprehensive dynamic forces acting on the structural glaze like wind loads, the dead load of curtain wall, high-temperature variations, and other stress and shear forces on the building.

Factors Influencing Market Growth

- The rising global population and fast urbanization push the growth of the building construction sector which leads to the demand in the silicone structural glazing market.

- Silicone structural glazing exceeds mechanically affixed glazing systems in terms of functionality and appearance. This is considered to be one of the main aspects causing the demand for silicone structural glazing over other fa?ade alternatives, which is driving the market growth.

- The commercial building sector is intensely anticipated to notice growth in the coming years. This is attributable to a boost in the urban population and the growth in the service sector job chances. Such factors are expected to deliver lucrative possibilities for the growth of the silicone structural glazing market.

Impact of COVID-19

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic halted the production of many components of silicone structural glazing because of the lockdown. The economic downshift originally resulted in decreased spending on different non-residential buildings and residential construction projects. Also, due to the introduction of diverse vaccines, the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic has remarkably declined. This has led to the reopening of silicone structural glazing component manufacturing companies at their full-scale capacities.

Regional Analysis

The Asia Pacific is anticipated to share notable growth in the global silicone structural glazing market. The growth can be led by the growth in the use of silicone structural glazing in end-use sectors like public, commercial, and residential buildings. Rising construction infrastructure in evolving economies like India and China is expected to increase the silicone structural glazing market.
