Market Insights
Window film is a thin laminate film that is installed on the interior or exterior of glass surfaces in automobiles, boats, and homes and buildings. Window films are mainly used to address issues inherent in glazing. Heat and glare reduction, thermal insulation, UV filtration, safety and security, and decoration are some of the applications of window film.
With the sudden outbreak of the pandemic, the window films market shrank. The majority of its end-use application industries experienced supply chain disruption, cash flow constraints, and production facility shutdowns. As a result of these factors, the demand for window films in end-use industries decreased.
Growing concerns regarding reducing carbon footprint and increasing safety and security concerns among consumers are expected to drive the window films market recovery and growth. In addition, the demand for window films in the automotive and construction industries is gradually returning. As a result of these factors, the window films market is expected to grow at a promising CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period.
