Rising acceptance of the films owing to increasing ecological as well as health concerns are predicted to be major factors fuelling industry growth during forecast period. These films inhibit emissions of greenhouse gases and protects body or property against ultra violet rays of sun. All these features are predicted enhance the demand of the product and contribute towards industry growth. Further, they block 80.1% of solar power leading to more than 30.1% of savings on utility expenses due to low cooling and heating costs. Also, government support to lessen carbon footprints have boosted demand for product. Rising demand for smart glass can be yet another product threat that can hinder solar control window films market expansion.
Application Insights
The industry is segmented into different applications like automotive application, marine application, graphics and construction application. Automotive application is predicted to register more than 11.1% CAGR in terms of revenue. Automobiles during day are tremendously exposed to sun light and this raises interior temperature causing additional burden on air conditioning system which impacts fuel consumption later. Solar films maintain the inside temperature by reflecting ultraviolet rays of sun. This application can favorably affect industry growth.
Marine application is predicted to cross $111 million mark by end of 2024 and register CAGR of more than 11.1%. Ships are exposed to harmful sun rays during sail and these films can help in preventing passenger headache problems. Further, they also help in protecting maritime electronics, mobiles and audio devices from harmful effects of ultra violet rays of sun.
Construction application segment contributed more than $371 million for 2015. Extensive glass application across construction sector is predicted to improve the appearance and enhance indoor lightning of interior fuelling the demand for segment during forecast timeline.
Product Insights
Global is segmented into varied products like vacuum coated product, clear product, high performance films and dyed product. Vacuum coated product segment is predicted to register CAGR of more than 11% during forecast timeframe. Solar films when covered with reflective metal during vacuum coating method gives attractive looks. It also provides highly consistent and reflective coating predicted to boost industry expansion.
Clear product segment contributed more than $176 million for 2015. Solar films can be applied on many surfaces like big doors and smooth windows.
Absorber Insights
Global industry is segmented into various absorbers like metallic, organic and inorganic. Metallic absorber segment is predicted to register CAGR of more than 11.1% during forecast timeline. They substantially reflect rays of sun helping in minimizing power expenditure owing to ingress of low heat. Organic absorber segment is predicted to touch $241 million mark by end of forecast period.
