Summary

The fire resistant glass market is projected to grow from USD 10.4 billion in 2024 to USD 16.1 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 9.0% during the forecast period. Laminated fire resistant glass time dominated the market in 2023. This type offers efficient ability to provide impact resistivity while offering high quality glazing solutions for wide range of applications in construction sector. Laminated glass is made up of multiple layers of glass bonded together with an interlayer usually made up of polyvinyl butyral or ethylene-vinyl acetate. In case of a fire resistant glass, the interlayer keeps the glass together even when it breaks, that prevents it from shattering into dangerous shards.

“Building & construction application segment of fire resistant glass dominated the overall market, in terms of value.”
Global fire resistant glass market has been segmented based on end-use application segment into building & construction, marine, and others. Stringent building & safety codes, such as, BS EN 12600, BS 476, and BS EN 356, among others; governed by various associations and government organizations such as IBC, National Fire Protection Act (NFPA), and British (Building) Standards (BS); are the major drivers of growth of fire resistant glass market in the building & construction application.


“Europe region accounted for highest market share in the global fire resistant glass market, in terms of value.”
In 2023, Europe accounted for the largest share of global fire resistant market in terms of value. The growing building & construction industries, increasing R&D activities initiated by major players, stringent government regulations, and rising development strategies for fulfilling the demand for fire resistant glass in the established and emerging application markets are the key growth drivers of fire resistant glass in this region. Europe is a mature market for fire resistant glass and is also known as the leader in the high production of fire safety value-added products that include laminated, coated, and ceramic glasses, among others. Stringent building & safety codes set by European Union (EU) and International Building Code (IBC) also play a major role in making this region the dominant player in the fire resistant glass market.
