概述

2022年全球玻璃市場規模達2,607億美元，預計2030年將達到3,791億美元，2023-2030年預測期間CAGR為4.8%。

全球玻璃市場多元化且充滿活力，有許多不同的應用。它包括用於包裝、電子、建築等多種行業的玻璃製品的製造和分銷。永續性和對節能玻璃不斷成長的需求是兩個關鍵的市場促進因素。

此外，提高智慧玻璃技術的使用以及不斷增加對採用先進玻璃製造技術的投資是促進全球玻璃市場成長的其他重要因素。

玻璃工業是能源密集產業之一。儘管能源效率不斷提高，但生產過程對高溫的依賴限制了現有技術的進步。可以用可再生電力加熱的新熔爐在歐洲的試點項目中進行了測試，並對氫氣的使用進行了研究。

歐洲各地都有玻璃廠，佔全球市場的近26.7%。然而，這些地區的小型企業減少排放所需的投資極為困難，特別是對於氫氣管道等重要基礎設施而言。因此，政府正在提供支持，以改善市場上先進玻璃製造的發展，從而帶來未來的成長前景。

動力學

對節能玻璃和永續發展的需求不斷增加

低輻射 (Low-E) 玻璃通常稱為節能玻璃，有助於減少透過窗戶和外牆的熱傳遞。這意味著建築物供暖和製冷所需的能源更少，從而降低能源消耗和能源成本。隨著能源效率成為住宅和商業建築的首要任務，有助於最大限度減少能源使用的玻璃解決方案的需求變得越來越大。

公司也投資採用節能眼鏡。例如，2020 年，由歐盟資助的 Switch2Save 計畫正在創建價格合理的智慧玻璃系統，非常適合巨大的窗戶和玻璃帷幕。經過一年的實驗，初步結果表明，這些節能型中空玻璃單元 (IGU) 可以將大量玻璃結構的一次能源消耗減少高達 70%。 Switch2Save 智慧玻璃解決方案將電致變色 (EC) 和熱致變色 (TC) 窗戶技術與巧妙的開關協定相結合。

玻璃製造的技術進步

智慧玻璃、自清潔玻璃和輕質玻璃等技術進步是推動玻璃市場的主要因素。可切換玻璃，通常稱為智慧玻璃，是一種可以響應電流或其他刺激而改變其光傳輸特性的玻璃。由於這項技術在能源效率、隱私、美觀和舒適度方面具有相當大的優勢，預計在未來五年內將發展並變得更加普遍。

目前，智慧眼鏡主要分為三大類：1）電致變色2）聚合物分散液晶（PDLC）； 3) 懸浮粒子裝置（SPD）。智慧玻璃技術的性能、尺寸和可承受性預計將隨著不斷進步而提高，從而開闢更廣闊的市場。智慧玻璃可用於室內隔間以及窗戶、門和天窗。最大尺寸限制仍然是許多專案的主要挑戰。

環境問題

英國南安普敦大學的研究人員表示，玻璃的熔化溫度比塑膠和鋁更高。原始玻璃在其原料熔化過程中釋放的溫室氣體進一步增加了對環境的影響。據國際能源總署稱，平板玻璃和貨櫃業每年排放超過 60 兆噸二氧化碳。這可能會讓人感到驚訝，但根據布洛克的研究，塑膠瓶對環境的危害比玻璃瓶小。

此外，回收玻璃並不能消除重熔過程（玻璃生產過程中消耗最多的能源）是其主要問題之一。它佔生產過程中使用的能源的 75%。玻璃通常被歸類為一次性使用，儘管它平均可以重複使用 12-20 次。被一次性丟進垃圾掩埋場的玻璃可能需要一百萬年才能分解。全球範圍內，玻璃回收率差異很大。 2018年美國的平均回收率為31.3%，而歐盟和英國的平均回收率為74%和76%。因此，上述因素是阻礙玻璃市場成長的潛在因素。

Overview

Global Glass Market reached US$ 260.7 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 379.1 billion by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

The global glass market is diverse and dynamic and has many different applications. It includes the manufacturing and distribution of glass goods utilized in a variety of industries, including packaging, electronics, construction and more. Sustainability and rising demand for energy-efficient glass are two key market-driving drivers.

Furthermore, improving the use of smart glass technology and growing investments in the adoption of advanced technologies for glass manufacturing are other prominent factors contributing to the growth of the global glass market.

One of the energy-intensive industries is the glass industry. Although it has consistently increased its energy efficiency, the production process' reliance on high temperatures places restrictions on how far the available technologies may advance. New furnaces that could be heated with renewable electricity are tested in Europe in pilot projects and research looks into the usage of hydrogen.

Many locations throughout Europe have glassworks which has made it contribute nearly 26.7% to the global market. However, the investments required to reduce emissions for smaller businesses in these areas are extremely difficult, particularly for vital infrastructure like hydrogen pipelines. Thus government is providing support to improve the development of advanced glass manufacturing in the market leading to future growth prospects.

Dynamics

Increasing Demand for Energy-Efficient Glass and Sustainability

Low-emissivity (Low-E) glass, often known as energy-efficient glass, helps reduce heat transfer via windows and facades. The implies that less energy is needed in buildings for heating and cooling, which lowers energy consumption and lowers energy costs. Glass solutions that might help minimize energy usage are becoming more and more in demand as energy efficiency becomes a priority for both residential and commercial structures.

Companies are also investing in adopting energy-efficient glasses. For instance, in 2020, The Switch2Save project, financed by the European Union, is creating reasonably priced smart glass systems that fit well with huge windows and glass facades. After a year of the experiment, preliminary findings indicate that these energy-smart insulating glass units (IGUs) can reduce a structure with a lot of glazing by up to 70% in terms of primary energy use. Electrochromic (EC) and thermochromic (TC) window technologies are combined with clever switching protocols in the Switch2Save smart glass solutions.

Technological Advancements in Glass Manufacturing

Technological advancements such as smart glass, self-cleaning glass and lightweight glass are major factors contributing to the market of glass. Switchable glass, commonly referred to as smart glass, is a type of glass that can alter its light transmission characteristics in response to an electric current or other stimulus. Since this technology offers considerable advantages for energy efficiency, privacy, aesthetics and comfort, it is anticipated to advance and become more prevalent during the next five years.

Currently, there are three main categories of smart glasses: 1) electrochromic 2) Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC); and 3) Suspended Particle Device (SPD). The performance, size and affordability of Smart Glass technologies are anticipated to improve with continued advancements, opening up a wider market. Smart Glass can be utilized for interior partitions as well as windows, doors and skylights. Maximum size restrictions continue to be the key challenge for many projects.

Environmental Concerns

According to a researcher from University of Southampton in UK, glass has to melt at temperatures higher than plastic and aluminum. The environmental impact of virgin glass is further increased by the release of greenhouse gases during the melting process of its raw components. Over 60 megatonnes of CO2 are released annually by the flat-glass and container sectors, according to the International Energy Agency. It might come as a surprise, but according to Brock's research, plastic bottles are less harmful to the environment than glass ones.

Furthermore, The fact that recycling glass does not eliminate the remelting process-which uses the most energy during glass production-is one of its main issues. It makes up 75% of the energy used in the production process. Glass is generally classified as single-use even though it may be reused an average of 12-20 times. Glass that has been thrown away once-and-for-all all all in landfills may take up to a million years to degrade. Globally, glass recycling rates differ greatly. The average recycling rate in U.S. was 31.3% in 2018, compared to 74% and 76% in the EU and UK. Thus the above factors are the potential factors hampering the growth of the glass market.

Segment Analysis

The global glass market is segmented based on type, raw material, application, end-user and region.

Growing Investment Drives the Flat Glass Segmental Growth

Flat glass is a growing market based on types and is expected to cover more than 40.9% market share in the forecast period. Research & development investments result in innovations in flat glass manufacturing. Innovations in float glass production methods, coating technologies and the development of energy-efficient and smart glass are instances of these developments. Customers seeking exceptional glass products are drawn to advanced technology, fueling the segment's expansion.

For instance, in August 2022, Mexican glass manufacturer Vitro explored the development of a flat and container glass plant. The Mexican container and float glass manufacturer intends to invest US$ 400 million in a free zone framework in a 350,000m2 flat glass production and a 150,000m2 container glass facility.

The is a technological breakthrough when compared to current technology utilized in natural gas-fired flat glass furnaces.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

Manufacturing of float glass has been impacted by COVID-19, much like the rest of the glass industry. Difficulties with the supply chain and possible closures as a result of state orders to stay at home and shelter in place have affected the industry. With a few exceptions, the majority of float manufacturing facilities in U.S. seem to be still in operation as of right present. When the coronavirus first started to spread and stay-at-home restrictions were put into place, the majority of American corporations with float facilities issued statements about worker safety and material supply. Companies pledged communication about disruptions brought on by the pandemic, reassured clients that there was a sufficient supply of raw glass and highlighted worker safety precautions.

Nevertheless, COVID-19 has had consequences, mostly because of the economic effects of the pandemic.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact Analysis

Commodity and energy price volatility can be caused by geopolitical tensions and trade disruptions. Energy price fluctuations, such as natural gas, can have an impact on glass producers' production costs. The European glass industry is energy-intensive and energy prices account for a considerable portion of production costs. Geopolitical events can have an impact on energy prices, thereby raising production costs.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine may disrupt supply chains, reducing the availability of raw materials, particularly minerals and chemicals required in glass manufacture. If European glass manufacturers rely on regional imports, disruptions could result in supply shortages and price instability.
