COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an immediate impact on the world economy and that impact goes across all industries, including mining. Some delays, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related contingencies, have occurred in underground development and halted preparation in the mining projects. The construction industry was one of the hardest hit by COVID-19, as it had already been dealing with a liquidity crunch as a result of the non-banking financial institutions' impact on the financial sector for more than a year. Because of a lack of funds, many projects have remained unfinished. Due of shifting buyer preferences, those that were completed remained unsold.

Window Films Market Segment Analysis - By Type

Sun control film held the largest share in the Window Films Market in 2020. This growth is mainly attributed to the increasing demand for sun control film in varied applications such as in automobiles, building and construction, and others. The UV-blocking film reduces the amount of heat that is gained through the transmission of sunlight. The UV blocking films let the natural light in and reject the heat and protect us from UV rays. It also helps in lowering the energy cost by providing natural light, reducing glare, eliminating the hotspots, and provide a better look.

Window Films Market Drivers

Replacement of conventional material with new protective material

The growing concern about the Ultra-Violet radiation affecting the human in terms of several diseases is creating an opportunity for the market in the next few years. The window films with its advantageous qualities will drive the demand as they can protect us from UV rays, provide glare free glass, security and safety and also beneficial for every season. The old compact homes are now transforming into the view zones and more decorative than the traditional one. Engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a method for creating an optical film with hydrogel microparticles that prevents radiative heat transfer. If commercialized, the material could reflect nearly 70% of the solar heat entering a building's windows, saving billions of dollars in energy costs.

Rise in safety needs in vehicles

The increase in knowledge about safety and health concerns are leading towards the rise in demand for automotive window films. The automotive films help in protection from the harmful ultraviolet rays as it blocks the harmful rays and only let the natural light to pass on. It helps in staying the vehicle cool by reducing heat and reduce glare so that you can see properly and clearly. In terms of how major markets are recovering from the pandemic's aftereffects, China's automotive industry has been the most rapid, followed by the United States, which began to improve around Q3 2020. Despite the pandemic's lingering impact, Europe and India have shown signs of steady recovery, although at a slow pace.
