The insulation products market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $99.66 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable insulation materials, growth in industrial and transportation applications, integration of iot-enabled insulation monitoring, adoption of advanced polyurethane and elastomeric foams, government incentives for energy-efficient building practices. Major trends in the forecast period include development of eco-friendly insulation materials, integration of smart sensors for energy efficiency, adoption of high-performance thermal insulation, expansion in acoustic insulation applications, advancements in fire-resistant and moisture control insulation.

The expansion of residential buildings is poised to drive the growth of the insulation products market. Residential buildings, designated for housing purposes, are experiencing a surge in demand for insulation products due to the prevailing trend toward energy-efficient construction. In January 2023, the USA witnessed a 12.8% growth in new housing unit construction, with 1,406,000 units compared to January 2022. This substantial increase in residential buildings is expected to be a significant catalyst for the insulation products market.

Major companies in the insulation products market are focusing on developing bio-based insulation technology to offer sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional insulation materials, thereby reducing carbon footprints and dependence on fossil fuels. Bio-based insulation technology provides sustainable options derived from natural materials, decreasing reliance on synthetic products while minimizing environmental impact. It also enhances thermal performance and energy efficiency, improves indoor air quality, and serves as a responsible choice for eco-conscious consumers and builders. For instance, in November 2023, Kingspan, an Ireland-based building materials manufacturer, launched the HemKor product range, a sustainable insulation solution primarily made from hemp. This product is designed to lower the carbon footprint of buildings while enhancing thermal performance. With up to 95% bio-based content, HemKor employs advanced material science for exceptional thermal conductivity, representing a significant innovation in the insulation products market as the first major offering to combine bio-based materials with cutting-edge insulation technology for sustainable building practices.

In March 2023, Installed Building Products Inc., a US-based construction company specializing in insulation and after-paint products for existing homes, residential, and commercial construction, successfully acquired Anchor Insulation Co. Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move expanded Installed Building Products' presence in the Northeastern United States for residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Anchor Insulation Co. Inc., based in the US, is recognized for its expertise in the installation of mechanical, residential, and industrial insulation.
