Market Insights
The Waterproofing Flashing and Accessories Market was valued at US$ 2.1 Billion in 2022. The market is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR of 4.5% over the next five years.
Flashing is a thin impervious membrane that restricts the penetration of water into the building. Flashing is particularly important at junctions such as roof hips and valleys, joints between roofs and vertical walls, roof intersections, or projections such as chimneys, dormers, vent pipes, and window openings. Flashing is mostly of two types: exposed flashing and embedded flashing. Exposed flashing is mostly done outside, mainly using the metal sheets, whereas embedded flashing can be done from either metal sheets or non-metallic materials. The most common flashing materials include metals, plastics, asphalt, and rubber. Whereas flashing accessories consist of weep vents, drip edges, end dams, and termination bars. These accessories are used while flashing at the joints or junctions of the walls.
Flashing is engineered and installed with care so that water is deflected away from the building. Improper installation can result in water being directed into a building. There are numerous types of flashing, such as valley flashing, step flashing, counter flashing, continuous flashing, and base flashing. The major type of flashing is continuous flashing, which is a one-solid piece of material and is sometimes seen where a sloping roof and a vertical sidewall meet to form a horizontal line. There are multiple accessories consumed with flashing such as dampers, primers, sealants, and adhesives. For instance, expansion joints should be provided for long runs of metal flashing to allow movement without causing deformation.
The rising concerns for building codes and energy efficiency in residential as well as commercial buildings are driving the waterproofing flashing and accessories market. The market is also driven by the increasing infrastructure, commercial, and residential building construction across the globe.
Recent Product Developments: New product developments and innovation focusing on key areas, such as sustainability, durability, and material compatibility, will lead to advancement in the waterproofing business with the introduction and adoption of new materials.

By Product Type
The market is segmented into flashing and accessories. Flashing is further segmented into liquid-applied flashing and membrane flashing, whereas accessories into primers, adhesives & sealants, and others. Liquid-applied flashing is expected to grow at a higher rate in the market during the forecast period owing to the fact that it is easily applied in any building structure and has less wastage as compared to membrane flashing. Liquid-applied flashing simplifies flashing rough openings and other challenging areas and is also ideal for filling in imperfections and penetrations. Unlike membranes, liquid-applied flashing offers the unique feature of elasticity, which proves to be a crucial advantage.
By Application Type
The flashing and accessories market is segmented into roofs, walls & windows, basements, and others. Roofs is expected to remain the largest as well as the fastest-growing application in the market during the forecast period. Flashing is preferably used for residential and commercial roofs. Roofs is prone to damage from extreme weather conditions such as storms and rain. This makes roofs one of the most crucial application areas for flashing and accessories.
Regional Analysis
Asia-Pacific is a well-established market for waterproofing flashing and accessories. The region is also expected to recover at the highest rate in post-pandemic market developments, propelled by increasing investment in the infrastructure and construction sectors. China is not only the largest market for flashing and accessories in Asia-Pacific but also in the world. The country is also the largest market for waterproofing in the world. The region’s market is driven by China. The total construction value completed in China in 2022 was US$ 1,132 Billion (National Bureau of Statistics). Moreover, the Asian construction industry is estimated to expand at 5% annual growth.
