Description
The Plastic Windows Market Report – World is now also available in parts (e.g. individual country profiles or all manufacturer profiles). Please feel free to contact us and we will immediately send you an offer for your specific selection.
Good prospects for the construction industry: sales of window frames are increasingly recovering. The latest edition of the Ceresana study on the global plastic window market expects demand to rise again this year. For plastic windows used in buildings, market researchers anticipate average global growth of 2.3% p.a. until 2033. There are, however, major differences depending on the country and construction segment. Renovation and commercial construction are usually the fastest growing areas of application. The number of window frames (not window fittings or glazing) is always decisive for the comprehensive market analysis of the production and sale, import, and export of plastic windows.
Market for Windows between Crisis and Opportunity
Due to price increases, higher interest rates, and a high vacancy rate, new construction is currently in a crisis in many places. The plastic windows market analysis forecasts higher growth rates for the renovation construction segment. Monument conservationists are not always happy about this, but window frames made of wood or aluminum are increasingly being replaced by robust and easy-care profiles made of PVC or other plastics almost everywhere in the world. Commercial construction is developing more dynamically than residential construction in many regions of the world. Office properties are an exception, as the trend towards working from home is causing problems.
PVC Window Market Benefits from Climate Politics
As with insulation materials and other building materials, the national markets for vinyl windows are also strongly influenced by the climate protection politics of the respective country, i.e. by subsidies and support measures to improve energy efficiency. As heating or cooling buildings accounts for a high proportion of total energy consumption, energy-saving PVC windows often pay for themselves quickly. The study shows that fixed-glazed windows and panoramic windows in particular are gaining market share worldwide, as are tilt-and-turn windows, which are already widespread in Europe and allow controlled ventilation.
Current Edition of the Market Study “Plastic Windows – World”:
Chapter 1 provides a complete quantitative description and analysis of the global market for plastic windows – including forecasts up to 2033. Key figures such as production and demand (in million units), as well as revenues (USD and EUR) are given for each world region.
Demand is also broken down for each region for the different window types:
- Tilt and turn windows
- Casement windows
- Pivot and awning windows
- Sliding, single- and double-hung windows
- Fixed and panoramic windows
In addition, demand is also analyzed for each construction segment:
- New construction
- Renovation
- Residential construction
- Non-residential construction
In Chapter 2, 16 countries, the world’s largest window markets, are examined in detail: current figures on the demand for plastic windows, also broken down by construction segment (new construction, renovation, residential construction, non-residential construction). Key figures on production, import, export, and turnover are also provided.
Chapter 3 presents company profiles of the largest manufacturers of plastic windows – clearly arranged according to contact details, revenues, profit, product range, production sites, profile summary, as well as product types and application areas. In-depth profiles of the 52 most important producers are given, for example of Associated Materials, LLC, China Lesso Group Holdings Limited, Cornerstone Building Brands, Groupe Liebot, Jeld-Wen Holding Inc., Rehau Industries SE & Co. KG, VKR Holding AS, and YKK AP, Inc.
=> A new market report on polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the most important plastic material for profiles and window frames, is available from Ceresana. Ceresana also regularly analyzes the entire European market for windows and doors.
