Silicone sealants are used as building materials owing to their numerous properties, such as durability, moisture resistance, and deterioration resistance. This type of sealant is utilized in construction, connection, and movement joints to ensure the structural integrity of materials. Silicone sealants help commercial and residential buildings perform better by sealing out water, humidity, and UV rays. These sealants also add flexibility to building structures, allowing materials to absorb stress and movement caused by wind or earthquakes. They also make them more energy efficient by preventing humidity and hot or cold air from coming inside through joints and cracks. Silicone sealants are also used across a wide range of substrates, such as ceramics, granite, plastic, glass, and aluminum. A surge in construction activities in India is driven by continuous urbanization, population increase, middle-class population’s income growth, and infrastructural developments. The Government of India is also planning to develop a single-window clearance facility to accelerate the process of approval of construction projects to boost the construction business in the country. These factors collectively contribute to the strong growth of the construction industry in India, driving the demand for sealants.
