Based on our research output, there has been a NEGATIVE impact on the market growth during and after the post-COVID-19 era. The need for energy-efficient buildings is notably driving the construction glass market growth, although factors such as may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the construction glass market industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Construction Glass Market Driver
One of the key factors driving the data center market is the need for energy-efficient buildings. The design and construction materials of a building have a direct impact on the heating, cooling, and lighting requirements. When a building's façade is exposed to direct sunlight, it heats up over time and transfers that heat inside. As a result, the demand for air conditioning for cooling and comfort rises, resulting in an increase in energy consumption. Furthermore, residential and commercial buildings consume a significant amount of electricity globally. However, by implementing energy-saving measures, the impact can be decreased by 20% to 25%. Furthermore, it is thought that glass is one of these methods that contribute greatly to building energy efficiency. Glazing can assist in achieving maximum energy efficiency while also reducing the total environmental impact. Furthermore, the use of glass in building construction is predicted to significantly cut CO2 emissions. Low-E and solar control features are combined in double-glazed facades, which help to prevent heat loss in the winter and excessive heat in the summer. Furthermore, clear glass aids in the penetration of natural light into interior spaces, decreasing the demand for artificial lighting. Over the forecast period, these qualities of construction glass, together with the growing need for energy-efficient buildings, are likely to drive the market.
Key Construction Glass Market Trend
Growing M&A activities and strategic alliances are other factors supporting the data center market growth in the forecast period. Intense competition among vendors in the moderately fragmented global construction glass market, as well as rapidly evolving technologies, pose a significant threat to the vendors operating in the market. As a result, this intense competition has increased the number of strategic mergers and acquisitions (M&A). With the increasing demand for glass curtain walls from the construction industry, vendors are opting for M&A and strategic alliances to improve their market reach and customer base. Moreover, the intense competition in the market is expected to compel established vendors to increase their market presence through M&A and strategic alliances. The vendors of glass curtain walls are investing extensively in joint ventures and acquisitions to capture a major share of the global glass curtain wall market and expand their presence in new regions. The market has witnessed significant growth in the number of strategic alliances and partnerships among rival companies operating in different regions, as well as among companies that provide glass curtain walls. These strategic alliances and partnerships among vendors are aiding them to improve their operations and expand their geographic presence. This will drive the growth of the global construction glass market during the forecast period.
Key Construction Glass Market Challenge
High competition among vendors will be a major challenge for the data center market during the forecast period. The construction glass industry faces a number of challenges, and one of them is the highly saturated nature of the market. There is a very high market concentration in the construction glass industry, especially in densely populated urban centers, which often account for the highest growth in the construction sector. The majority of construction glass applications come from skyscrapers, which are usually more relevant to urban areas, owing to the shortage of space. These buildings offer high revenue potential to builders and land developers and making them a prime target for glass suppliers. However, contractors have the bargaining power as there is a surplus of glass suppliers to choose from. This excess supply from both local and international players will put downward pressure on pricing and thus make the market unattractive. Moreover, construction glass does not involve much product differentiation in terms of appearance, thus enabling its easy duplication and leading to the problem of counterfeit products, which are available at lower prices than the original goods. Therefore, such a factor considerably hampers the market growth.
This construction glass market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2021-2025.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic severely affected the construction glass market in APAC in 2020. The increase in unemployment, along with the downfall of the economy of the region, took a toll on construction and real estate markets. Trade disruptions also negatively impacted the construction industry as there was a shortage of construction materials. The economic slowdown in Southeast Asian countries resulted in the contraction of the construction industry by 4% in 2020 as compared to 2019, which ultimately affected the regional construction glass market. However, 90% of construction projects in China have been resumed, including major railway, highway, and airport projects, according to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC). In Hongkong, along with COVID-19, the end of special trade status by the US government reduced investments in construction projects. The abovementioned factors negatively impacted the regional construction glass market in 2020. Many governments in the region are funding to resume various construction projects to normalize the economy, which will support the growth of the regional construction glass market during the forecast period.
