Introduction
Glass blocks, also known as glass bricks, are solid or hollow
transparent architectural materials made from glass. Glass blocks are made up
of silica, sodium, and lime. They are manufactured in various dimensions. Their
appearance varies in size, style, opacity, and color. Glass blocks are used in
different constructions such as commercial, industrial, and residential.
Increase in demand for glass block windows can be ascribed to
their easy installation owing to the availability of pre-fabricated kits. Swapping
old windows with glass block windows is easy. Installation of glass block
windows requires glass block, pencil, silicone sealer, plastic spacers, wood
screws, measuring tape, knife, plastic putty knife, and drill. Rise in usage of
glass block windows in houses, commercial structures, and industrial
constructions has been a key driver of the glass
block market.
Earlier, glass blocks were used just in the factories. Glass blocks
were later adopted in commercial and residential buildings. Glass block windows
can be installed in rooms, exterior side of the house, toilets, and underground
stores, as they allow natural light and help maintain privacy. They are used in
commercial constructions and factories where they allow light and provide
resistance to noise.
High cost of raw materials required in the manufacture of glass
blocks is major challenge facing the glass block market. Glass blocks are
primarily used to reduce the cost of energy. However, the glass blocks
manufacturing process involves high consumption of energy. Natural gas and a
few oil products are mainly used in manufacturing glass. Glass blocks are used
to generate electricity from solar heat.

Glass blocks are used as windows, partitions, and shower
cubicles in bathrooms across the globe. While increasing condensation rates of
moisture which is further condensed to liquid state may leads to the deposition
of mold over glass block material. This makes the bathroom grimy and
unhygienic. Water vapor also damages window frames. This is expected to be
another challenge facing the glass block market.
Glass Block Market: Segmentation Outlook
The global glass block market can be segmented based on
application and region. Based on application, the glass block market can be
classified into residential, commercial, and industrial. Rise in construction
of commercial buildings such as hospitals and business parks in developing
regions is the prominent factor driving the demand for glass blocks during the
forecast period.

Glass Block Market: Regional Outlook
In terms of region, the glass block market can be segregated
into Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, North America, and Middle East &
Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to be the leading region of the global glass
block market during the forecast period. Rise in development in the commercial
sector, which includes information technology centers, hospitals, Business Park
especially in countries such as India and China is a key factor which is
expected to propel the demand for glass block during the forecast period.
The market in developed regions such as North America and Europe
are expected to exhibit moderate growth rate due to the focus on vinyl and
silicon fiberglass materials in these regions. These materials are being
replaced by glass block materials in windows, doors, and walls.
