In 2024, Japan continued to see significant glass import shipments from key countries such as China, Germany, USA, Netherlands, and Thailand. Despite high concentration levels indicated by the HHI, the market showed a healthy compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.02% from 2020 to 2024. However, a slight decline was observed in the growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -14.44%, signaling a potential shift in market dynamics. The continued reliance on these top exporting countries highlights the importance of global partnerships in sustaining Japan's glass import industry.
The Japan glass market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% between 2020 and 2026, reaching an estimated value of $3.6 billion by the end of the forecast period. This growth is mainly attributed to the growing demand for flat panel displays in electronics, increasing automotive production in Japan, and rising consumer preference for energy-efficient windows. The booming construction industry has also created a need for glass products like facades and door panels, which will further drive opportunities for glass manufacturers across Japan over the coming years.
