Flat Glass Forecasted Growth
According to a research report by the Freedonia Group*, demand for high performance flat glass products in the US is forecast to rise 8.2 percent per year to $9.2 billion in 2017. The gain is the result of a major rebound in building construction and continued improvement in motor vehicle production. They also anticipate an increased need for high performance products in the general flat glass market.
Demand for solar control glass is forecast to rise 12 percent per year to nearly $2.5 billion in 2017. The need for solar control glass products is primarily from the architectural market and the recent increase in building construction.
