Report Summary

The global glass coatings market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 15.5% during the forecast period. Glass coatings consist of particles of silicon dioxide within the hard resin, and are applied to vehicles and buildings to repel contamination and increase shine. Glass coatings are self-cleaning while also delaying the buildup of crime and the elements in between cleans. They offer high UV resistance, high optical activity, and cleansing properties. Glass coatings are widely used in industries such as construction, paints & coatings, and automotive & transport among others. Glass coatings are categorized into quartz silane and silica. Quartz silane is higher priced, and provides a durable and extra shiny coating. Silica is less durable, lower priced, and forms a hard, durable and semi-permanent shield over the clear coat on contact with paint.

The growing need for energy efficiency, increasing energy costs, and rising adoption of green buildings drive the market growth. The increasing demand for glass coating from the automotive sector coupled with increase in the sales of vehicles also boosts the market growth. There has been increasing awareness among consumers regarding use of energy efficient structures, which increases its demand in commercial and residential buildings.
