Thermal Insulation Materials Market
Thermal insulation materials are the type of materials, which are used for restricting the flow of heat energy between high temperature region and low temperature region. Thermal insulation materials are widely used across various end-user industries in order to decrease the energy consumption of the buildings and to maintain a desired temperature in an area without the need for further usage of cooling and heating equipment.
Market Dynamics
Driver
The global thermal insulation materials market has witness a surge in market growth in terms of revenue in recent past years, owing to the surge in demand for thermal insulation materials in the construction industry. Governments across the world are investing on sustainable development in cities and encouraging the construction of green buildings to reduce the carbon footprint and energy consumptions. For instance, in March 2022, the portfolio of BASF's graphitic expandable polystyrene (EPS) granulate was expanded. Neopor F 5 McycledTM, which was introduced by BASF and contains 10% recycled material, is appropriate for many building applications, particularly facade insulation. The Company operates in six segments, including chemicals, plastics, performance products, functional solutions, agricultural solutions, and oil and gas.
Increasing government initiatives for promoting the construction of the green building is expected to accelerate the market growth of thermal insulation materials. According to the Concerted Action for the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (a joint initiative of member states of the European Union and the European Commission), all buildings constructed in member states should comply with zero-energy standards by 2020.
On the basis of material type, the global thermal insulation materials market is bifurcated in to plastic foam, stone wool, fiber glass and others. Fiber glass is expected to grow substantially during the forecasted period, owing to its rising demand in different end-user industries. Manufacturers are focusing on development of thermal insulation materials which are lighter in weight in order to increase their efficiency and convenience. This scenario is projected to fuel the market growth in forthcoming years.
Restraint
The use of some insulation materials raises health issues, which is a significant barrier to the market's growth. When used during the laying process, glass wool, for instance, can irritate the eyes and respiratory system. Expanded and extruded polystyrene, a carcinogen, has been prohibited during production due to styrene emission. The health risks associated with these insulation products and the strict laws governing their use may limit their acceptance, making it difficult to expand the market.
