The Canada market is experiencing a CAGR of 6% during (2024 - 2031). Additionally, The Mexico market would exhibit a CAGR of 5.1% during (2024 - 2031).
Float glass is a form of flat glass that is extensively employed in a variety of applications, such as architecture, automotive, and consumer products. Its defining characteristics are its uniform thickness and smooth, polished surfaces, which are achieved through a unique manufacturing process. The float glass market is a critical component of the glass industry, as it involves the production and utilization of flat glass sheets that are extensively utilized in a variety of sectors, such as construction, automotive, and consumer products.
One of the primary drivers of the market is the booming construction industry. Float glass is extensively used in windows, doors, balconies, and interior design elements owing to its clarity, strength, and ability to enhance natural light. Commercial construction also contributes significantly to the demand for float glass. Sleek, contemporary buildings that optimize natural light and offer unobstructed views are frequently designed with large glass facades and curtain walls in modern architecture. These design elements improve the aesthetic appeal of commercial spaces and contribute to energy efficiency by reducing the need for artificial lighting.
Canada's growing renewable energy sector, particularly in solar power, boosts the demand for float glass. The Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA) states that Canada aims to add 1.6 GW of utility-scale solar annually to meet its 2050 Vision, indicating a rising need for high-quality float glass in the energy sector. Mexico’s commitment to renewable energy, particularly solar power, also contributes to this demand. These factors highlight the increasing need for float glass in Mexico's building and energy sectors. Hence, the expanding building construction and energy sectors significantly drive the demand for float glass in North America.
