The facade market is projected to reach US$ 275.24 billion by 2031 from US$ 205.60 billion in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 3.7% during 2023–2031. The growing construction industry across the globe is likely to remain key facade market trends.
Smart building design in the construction industry is closely linked to sustainability. Applying smart elements to upcoming facades includes selecting and testing different technologies to enhance the quality and abilities of a facade system. Also, advanced technologies are being incorporated to enhance the facades by adding value and function to buildings. A facade can be attributed as smart when it can adapt to environmental conditions and transform accordingly, subject to the components' adjustability and adaptability to different conditions, both inside and outside the building. Smart facades also include smart glazing to maximize sunlight while protecting against solar radiation, simultaneously controlling ventilation and heating when required.
The growing construction industry supported by favorable government assistance and rising inclination toward constructing green buildings are impacting the infrastructural projects, driving the growth of the facade market. Also, penetration of advanced insulation material, Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC), and double skin facades is higher than other materials as it improves the energy efficiency of a building. Moreover, with the advent of sophisticated technologies such as precast façade panels in the facade, the construction industry is projected to witness growth in the coming years.
Based on material, the global facade market is segmented into glass, metal, ceramic, wood and others. Metal segment is further divided into aluminum, copper, steel, and others. The metal segment held the largest market share in 2023, owing to the increasing adoption in commercial applications. By application, the market is segmented into residential, commercial, and industrial. The commercial segment dominated the market share in 2023 pertaining to the fact that the facade is a traditional system used in construction to improve aesthetics.
A building facade system is one of the most integral parts of a structure's overall design that adds unique characteristics to the building. The facade protects the building against damages caused by high-speed winds and heavy rains, as well as shields the structure from extreme temperatures and humidity levels. It also protects from ultra violet sunlight penetration and offers natural ventilation. Components of a facade system such as roofs, walls, doors, and windows control the air inflow and outflow and play a key role in reducing the entry of dust and other airborne particles into the building. Through the smart linking of the exteriors and interiors of the building, the facade assists in controlling light penetration or filtration, heat regulation, and solar gain minimization, leading to energy-efficient buildings with higher levels of solar shading and passive cooling.
According to the United Nations Environment Program, every year, buildings and their construction utilize over 36% of global energy and lead to ~40% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Various key players are incorporating functional facades, including curtain walls, that positively impact energy efficiency and provide high resistance toward weather, heat, noise, light, and glare. These inherent properties of modern facades and rising environmental and energy-related concerns worldwide bolster the growth of the global facades market.
Growing investment for the infrastructure development projects across the globe drives the market growth for instance, in January 2024, the European Climate, Environment, and Infrastructure Executive Agency received ∼ 400 applications requesting US$ 20 billion for transport infrastructure projects. China is marked by one of the highest urbanization rates in the world. According to data by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Shanghai, China is expected to have constructed the equivalent of 10 New York-sized cities by 2025. As per the International Trade Administration (ITA), China’s 14th Five-Year Plan emphasizes new infrastructure projects in energy, transportation, water systems, and new urbanization.
Smart facade design makes it more interactive and flexible. The wide and versatile nature of adaptability and innovations in interactive facade design would create an ever-growing scope for the facade market growth in the near-to-mid-term future. Additionally, extensive research and capital are being invested in developing advanced facade systems, and the primary focus is on glazing systems and various types of walls.
Key segments that contributed to the derivation of the facade market analysis are material, product type, and application.
The geographic scope of the facade market report is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.
In 2023, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of the global facade market. The region is estimated to register the moderate growth rate in the global facade market during the forecast period owing to factors such as growing urbanization and industrialization.
