Italy Mineral Wool Analysis

Over the years, the government of Italy has approved and provided funds to several schemes to improve the energy efficiency of existing buildings. Under its Conto Termico scheme, the government allocates ~US$ 400 million for private entities and ~US$ 500 million for public companies every year. Public companies use this scheme to implement projects for improving the insulation efficiency of the envelope of existing buildings by insulating roofs and walls, and installing solar screening. Incentives for insulation efficiency improvement account for 40% of the total expenditure planned for retrofitting existing buildings.

Italy Mineral Wool Overview

Mineral wool is a fibrous material produced by drawing or spinning molten mineral or rock materials such as ceramics and slag. In addition to being non-combustible, its properties, such as soundproofing, thermal conductivity, and durability, make it an ideal insulation material in various industries, including building and construction, automotive, oil and gas, power generation, and aerospace. Favorable government policies, such as Conto Termico, promote renovations and retrofitting of existing buildings for adding insulation materials to prevent fire incidents and reduce energy consumption in buildings, in turn benefitting the Italy mineral wool market

Italy Mineral Wool Drivers and Opportunities

Burgeoning Demand for Energy-Efficient Buildings Fuels Market Growth

According to the International Energy Administration, the building sector in Italy is expected to contribute 60% of its annual final energy savings by 2030. There is an increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings that align with the Italian government's regulations and policies. The Italian National Integrated Plan for Energy and Climate (PNIEC), enacting EU Regulation No. 1999/2018 on the European climate framework, has established a target of decreasing the primary energy consumption by 43% and final energy consumption by 39.7% by 2030, further achieving net zero by 2050.

Continuous Growth of End-Use Industries to Generate Market Opportunities

Mineral wool has a broad application scope in various industries, including automotive, oil and gas, power generation, and aerospace. In the oil and gas and other industries, mineral wool is used to protect pipelines, piping, and structures against heat transfer in the system. In industries such as automotive, aerospace, and power generation, mineral wool prevents overheating and reduces sound pollution.

The strategic geographic location in Europe and the Mediterranean area makes Italy an ideal market for foreign investments in end-use industries such as automotive, oil and gas, building and construction, aerospace, and power generation. According to the International Trade Administration, Italy is the second-largest manufacturing economy in Europe. It is a major manufacturer of automotive vehicles. The sales of lightweight commercial vehicles reached 160,830 units in 2022, which further increased by 8.8% in 2023. As per the same source, the oil & gas industry is one of the most prominent industries in the country. Natural gas and oil contribute to 38% and 37% of its total energy supply, respectively. The International Trade Administration also states that Italy has the 12th largest construction industry globally, owing to increased investments. According to the National Association of Building Contractors, investments in the construction industry rose by 17.6%, reaching US$ 176.2 billion in 2022 compared to 2021. The continuous growth of these industries is expected to generate opportunities for the Italy mineral wool market growth in the coming years.

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.

  1. Data Triangulation and Final Review:

The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.

We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
