DUBLIN, July 07, 2021– (COMMERCIAL THREAD)–The “Smart Windows – Global Market Trajectory and Analysis” report was added to ResearchAndMarkets.com offer.

Global smart windows market to reach $ 6.8 billion by 2026

Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global smart window market, estimated at US $ 3.6 billion in 2020, is expected to reach a revised size of US $ 6.8 billion by 2026, with growth at a CAGR of 11.3% over the analysis period.

Suspended Particle Devices (SPDs), one of the segments analyzed in the report, is expected to register a CAGR of 9% and reach $ 4.1 billion by the end of the analysis period. After a thorough analysis of the business implications of the pandemic and the induced economic crisis, the growth of the electrochromic segment is readjusted to a revised CAGR of 16.4% for the next 7-year period.

Windows in buildings and automobiles play an important role in providing a sense of space and allowing the entry and ventilation of air and light, thereby contributing to the overall health of occupants. Windows have gained increasing importance in modern homes, in terms of safety, security and aesthetics.

However, windows also represent ducted heat exchange, raising or lowering interior temperatures of buildings and automobiles according to seasonal conditions, resulting in higher energy consumption in the form of heating and cooling. Glass windows allow the heat of the sun to enter buildings, thus heating the interiors.

While blinds and curtains are used to prevent solar heat, they tend to disconnect occupants from the outside world. A smart window comes into play here because it reduces solar heat gain while providing a transparent view of the outside. Smart windows have become a staple of the latest and greatest in smart home technology.

Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) Segment To Reach $ 751.5 Million By 2026

In the global Liquid Crystal Dispersed in Polymer (PDLC) segment, the United States, Canada, Japan, China and Europe will lead the estimated 12.7% CAGR for this segment. These regional markets representing a combined market size of US $ 311.5 million in 2020 will reach a projected size of US $ 719.8 million by the end of the analysis period.

The story continues

China will remain among the fastest growing countries in this group of regional markets. Led by countries such as Australia, India and South Korea, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to reach $ 70.1 million by 2026.
