Advanced Glass Market - Historic Data (2019-2024), Global Trends 2025, Growth Forecasts 2037
Advanced Glass Market in 2025 is assessed at USD 97.26 billion. The global Market size was worth over USD 90.19 billion in 2024 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of around 9.8%, reaching USD 304.08 billion revenue by 2037. North America is anticipated to yield USD 136.84 billion by 2037, fueled by growing building sector and increasing consumption of solar energy, driving solar panel utilization.
The increased application of glass in the construction sector is the principal factor contributing to the market's expansion. Glass is a versatile construction element that may be used for everything from lighting to insulation to enhancing a building's appearance. The primary benefits of employing glass in a building include up to 80% natural light transmittance, acoustic proofing, and thermal insulation, weather resistance, holding up well to the impacts of rain, sun, and wind. For instance, it was predicted that global investment in the construction sector would reach over USD 20 trillion by 2035.
Furthermore, increased adoption in the aerospace sector would fuel advanced glass market expansion. Aerostructures use aerospace glass to reduce weight, boost payload capacity, and enhance fuel efficiency. It is frequently used in interior applications where weight savings of up to 20% are possible, such as cargo liners, floors, chairs, and other secondary structural sections. Production of aircraft is anticipated to increase by 57% over 2022-2028 across the globe. For instance, the Arlington, Virginia-based business stated that they are anticipating delivering 400 to 450 of its 740 aircraft by the end of 2023, an increase from approximately 375 aircraft in 2022.
Advanced Glass Market: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Higher Utilization of Advanced Glass in Solar Panel Manufacturing - In 2018, approximately 25 exajoules of renewable energy were consumed across the globe while the demand for solar PV is projected to reach around 100 gigawatts by 2024. Photovoltaic cells collectively make up solar panels which are being highly installed across the globe. Photovoltaic glass is the main technology behind the functionality of solar panels. Other benefits of solar control glass are cutting off the sun’s heat, allowing optimum light transmission, and others.
- Growing Demand for Safety Glasses - It is estimated that nearly 75% of eye injuries are caused by sparks striking the eye. Moreover, around 1500 sustain job-related eye injuries in the United States every day.
- Rising Sales of Optics & Lighting Across the Globe - As of 2022, the global lamps & lighting segment was estimated to generate a total revenue of approximately USD 70 billion.
- Spiking Inclination of the Global Population and Sales of Television - In 2022, the television segment was anticipated to hit around USD 150 billion.
Challenges
- Massive Price for Raw Materials and Their Limited Availability - It is projected that the market will be hampered by the rising price of advanced glass, its limited accessibility owing to the widening gap between supply and demand, and the unreliable supply of raw materials. In the coming years, it is predicted that rising raw material costs will restrict the advanced glass market.
- Presence of Alternatives in the Market
- Decline in the Supply-Chain followed by COVID-19

Advanced Glass Segmentation
Glass Type (Laminated, Coated, Toughened Glass)
The global advanced glass market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by glass type into laminated, coated, and toughened glass. The toughened glass segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share over the projected time frame. Safety glass that has undergone precise thermal or chemical processing to make it stronger than regular glass is known as tempered or toughened glass. Constructions including commercial, residential, and industrial buildings, vehicle mirrors and windows, greenhouses, household appliances (such as microwaves, refrigerators, cookware, and others), and gadgets such as computers, tablets, and mobile phones can all benefit from the usage of tempered glass. For instance, in 2020, major and small home appliance sales figures worldwide were over USD 420 billion, and it is predicted that the number will rise to over USD 538 billion by 2024.
End-user (Commercial, Residential Construction, Infrastructure, Automobiles, Electronics, Sports & Leisure);
The global advanced glass market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by the end-user sector into commercial, residential construction, infrastructure, automobiles, electronics, and sports & leisure, out of which, the residential construction segment is projected to witness noteworthy growth over the forecast period. In addition to being utilized to create standard windows and sensitive-looking fenestrations on facades in residential construction, glass is increasingly used as a building thermal insulation material, structural element, façade glazing component, and cladding material. The growth of the segment can be accounted to the increasing spending on construction. As of 2022, the total spending on residential and non-residential construction was anticipated to be nearly USD 900 billion and USD 500 billion in the United States alone.
