Global Flat Glass Market Insights, Forecast to 2025

Flat glass is also called net white piece of glass or glass, is melting, cooling and solidification of non-crystalline inorganic matter, has pervious to light, transparent, heat preservation, sound insulation, wear-resistant, resistant to climate change and other performance. Manufacture of flat glass raw material is rich, the price is low, so has been extremely widespread application.
For industry structure analysis, the flat glass industry is in high concentration. AGC(Japan), NSG(Japan), Saint-Gobain(France), Guardian(US) are the key market leader and they occupied about 47.28% of the whole market value.
Global demand increases from 63.0 million Tons in 2011 to 74.1 million Tons in 2015 with a CAGR of 4.12%. Increased demand from real estate construction and automotive are the key factors that contribute to this growth, especially the growth in China. Global market demand is expected to reach 84.million Tons by the year 2021. This growth is significantly lower than the past few years mainly because the demand surge period of China is close to its end and new market demand globally is not growing that fast.
China market is relatively unconsolidated, leading by some large with many local flat glass manufacturers like Taiwan Glass, Xinyi Glass and China Southern Group, etc. As the new float lines put into production under the changing economic climate, in the next few years, this market is expected to see an increased concentration rate. Despite current competition and weaken economic status, we tend to believe that this industry still has a bright future, considering the various processors and applications of flat glass.
