The laminated glass market in India is estimated to be worth around INR 5,700 crore with a steady growth rate of 6-8% CAGR over the past few years. The major factors driving this growth are the increasing demand from automobile sector along with infrastructure development activities across various states. Key players present in India laminated glass industry include Asahi India Glass Co.(AIS), Guardian Industries Corp., Saint Gobain India Pvt. Ltd., Gulf Extrusions PVT Ltd., Sheetal Enterprises etc.
The India Laminated Glass Market is driven by factors such as increasing awareness of safety and security in construction and automotive industries. Laminated glass offers enhanced safety features as it holds together when shattered, reducing the risk of injuries from glass fragments. The booming construction industry and the rising number of automotive vehicles on India roads have fueled the demand for laminated glass in architectural glazing, automotive windshields, and windows. The government`s focus on infrastructure development, such as airports, metros, and public buildings, has further driven the demand for laminated glass for safety and acoustic properties. Additionally, the growing adoption of laminated glass in interior design and decorative applications contributes to its market growth.
The India Laminated Glass Market encounters specific challenges that impact its widespread adoption in various sectors. One of the primary challenges is the initial cost of laminated glass compared to conventional glass options. Laminated glass is relatively costlier due to its additional layers and manufacturing process, which can be a deterrent for cost-conscious buyers, especially in price-sensitive projects. Additionally, the awareness and education about the benefits of laminated glass among end-users, builders, and architects pose a challenge. Some stakeholders may not fully understand the safety and security advantages of laminated glass and may opt for conventional glass options. The availability of counterfeit or low-quality laminated glass products in the market can also impact consumer confidence and hinder market growth. Companies need to focus on quality assurance and educate consumers about the long-term benefits of investing in laminated glass for enhanced safety and protection.
The India Laminated Glass Market experienced both challenges and opportunities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The temporary closure of construction projects and manufacturing units impacted the demand for laminated glass in certain applications. The slowdown in the automotive and real estate sectors affected the market`s growth during the lockdown period. However, the market witnessed increased demand for laminated glass in essential sectors, such as healthcare and public infrastructure. Laminated glass found applications in medical facilities, quarantine centers, and critical infrastructure projects. The emphasis on safety and hygiene during the pandemic highlighted the importance of laminated glass in providing enhanced protection against impacts and breakages. The gradual resumption of construction activities and the growing focus on sustainable and energy-efficient building materials are expected to drive the demand for laminated glass in the post-pandemic period.
The India Laminated Glass Market is led by prominent players offering a wide range of laminated glass products for various applications. Some key players in the market include Saint-Gobain India Pvt. Ltd., Asahi India Glass Ltd., Gujarat Guardian Limited, Gold Plus Glass Industry Ltd., and Duratuf Glass Industries (P) Ltd.
