South America Float Glass Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Type (Clear Glass, Tinted Glass, Textured Glass, and Others) and Application (Automotive and Transportation, Building and Construction, Electronics, and Others)
The SAM float glass market is expected to grow from US$ 3,873.83 million in 2021 to US$ 5,436.69 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2021 to 2028.
Float glass is manufactured through a melting process, where recycled glass, lime, silica sand, potash, and soda are melted in a furnace and floated onto a bed of molten tin. Float glass is being increasingly used in the building & construction industry, which includes the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Float glass has a high degree of light transmission, the ability to produce a range of colors and opacities, and good chemical inertness, which increased its demand from the construction industry. The float glass is used for windows and doors in the residential sector, serving both aesthetic and functional applications. It is also being increasingly utilized in interior design and modern architecture. In the commercial sector, float glass is in demand as it provides an attractive and easy-to-maintain exterior surface. Float glass offers light and heat transmittance, influencing the amount of heating and cooling required inside a building according to different seasons and climates. The float glass is also being used as display windows in the retail outlets due to its transparent nature, hardness, and ease of cleaning. Due to the rise in environmental concerns, there has been an increased demand for float glass in the construction industry as it helps in achieving Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) certification for residential and commercial constructions. The rise in consumer awareness about the safety of buildings and an increased focus on maintaining the government's building codes are expected to increase the demand for float glass further. Thus, the increasing demand for float glass from the building & construction industry will fuel the growth of the SAM float glass market during the forecast period.
In case of COVID-19, SAM is highly affected especially Brazil, followed by Argentina, Peru, Chile, and Ecuador among others. The government of South and Central America has taken an array of actions to protect its citizens and combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus through lockdowns, trade bans, and travel restrictions. This may have a direct impact on the growth of the float glass market due to significant disruptions in terms of sourcing of raw materials from suppliers as well as temporary closures of manufacturing base due to indefinite lockdowns and temporary quarantines. However, the demand for float glass is expected to increase in the region as the economies are recovering and vaccination drives are being adopted.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the SAM float glass market. The SAM float glass market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
