The report titled ‘Global Construction Silicone Sealants Market - Growth, Share, Opportunities, and Competitive Analysis, 2023 - 2032’ offers strategic visions into the global construction silicone sealants market along with the market size (Volume - Million Tons and Revenue - US$ Million) and estimates for the duration 2023 to 2032.
The said research study covers in-depth analysis of multiple market segments based on sector, application, and study across different topographies. The report is also inclusive of competitive profiling of the leading construction silicone sealants vendors, and latest developments. Most end users in the construction industry prefer organic sealants in order to reduce their upfront project costs as silicone sealants are expensive. Sealants play a vital role in sealing gaps between joints to prevent leakages.
Hence, the selection of cheaper variants of sealant can degrade the overall durability of the construction and require more expenditure over the maintenance costs. There is an increased awareness among distributors and customers regarding the benefits offered by silicone sealants in exterior applications, which in turn is leading to higher demand for the overall market.
The chemical and physical properties of silicone sealants are anticipated to improve on account of increased investments by key players in the research and development of the product to attain a competitive advantage in the market. The construction silicone sealants market is expected to reach over US$ 285.2 Mn by 2024, growing at a CAGR of more than 5.2% during the forecast period 2018-2024.
Manufacturers are increasingly pushing the development of bio-based sealants, which is expected to provide new opportunities for the growth of global silicone sealants market. The demand for low volatile organic compounds and green & sustainable sealants is expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for the market in the world over the forecast period. However, the market growth is restrained by harmful environmental effects of sealants.
Products, such as sealants, coatings, and paints, emit volatile organic compounds owing to the chemical composition and chemicals that are utilized to make them water repellent. These chemicals engage in photochemical reaction with the atmosphere. The carbon compounds are harmful to the environment and contribute toward atmospheric changes and instability.
