Cellular Glass Market: Overview
·
Cellular glass, also known as foam glass, is a glass foam
material, which is formed from a reaction between glass and carbon at high
temperature. Foam glass has a cellular structure. Cellular glass or foam glass
is insulation composed of glass, processed to form a rigid foam with a
predominantly closed-cell structure. It is lightweight, rigid material composed
of millions of completely sealed glass cells. Each cell is an insulation
entity; it is independent of the other cells surrounding it.
·
Cellular glass or foam glass insulation is 100% glass and
contains no binders or fillers. It does not absorb flammable liquids or vapors.
Cellular glass or foam glass insulation can help contain or suppress fire if it
does take place.
Growth in Building &
Construction Industry to Drive Global Cellular Glass Market
·
Building insulation is any object in a building used as
insulation for any purpose. Majority of insulation in buildings is for thermal
purposes. Increase in population is driving the construction industry.
Construction can be residential as well as nonresidential. Rise in demand for
new construction has boosted the demand for cellular glass products. The
cellular glass market is expected to be driven by increase in residential
maintenance activities. Home owners are interested in investing more in the
upkeep of their floors, walls, and roofing. This trend is anticipated to propel
the global
cellular glass market.
·
Expansion in the construction industry is estimated to boost the
cellular glass market, as people are increasingly getting inclined toward
energy saving processes. Growth in population and increase in numbers of
nuclear families in Asia Pacific are driving the construction industry in the
region.
Applications of Cellular Glass
·
Cellular glass insulation is a lightweight, rigid, and durable
material composed of completely sealed glass cells. It is non-combustible, and
provides superior compressive strength, moisture resistance, dimensional
stability, and long lasting thermal performance. A wide range of shapes and
sizes are available for building, equipment, and industrial specifications.
·
Cellular glass is specifically designed for building and roofing
applications for insulation purposes. It provides unparalleled performance
vis-à-vis any other building insulation.
·
Cellular glass also provides thermal performance and protection
for a number of applications such as low temperature pipes, equipment, tanks
and vessels, medium and high temperature pipes and equipment, hot oil and hot
asphalt storage tanks, heat transfer fluid systems, chemical processing
systems, above and below ground steam, chilled water pipes, and commercial and
ductwork pipe work

North America to Hold Major Share of
Global Cellular Glass Market
·
In terms of region, the global cellular glass market can be
divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle
East & Africa
·
In terms of value, Asia Pacific dominated the global cellular
glass market in 2019. This can be ascribed to the growth in the construction
sector in developing countries such China and India in the region.
·
North America and Europe cumulatively accounted for large share
of the global cellular glass market in 2019. According to the U.S. Department
of Energy, heating and cooling costs amount to 50% to 70% of the energy used in
an average home in the U.S. The U.S. Government is promoting the usage of
cellular foams in order to bring down these costs, maintain uniform
temperature, and lower noise levels in houses and commercial properties.
