The global architectural membrane material market size was USD 787.7 million in 2022 and the market is projected to touch USD 1130.8 million by 2032 at a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period.

Architectural film is a light and flexible material used in house construction to create a weatherproof, aesthetically appealing surface. These membranes are usually made of synthetic fabrics such as PVC, polyester or PTFE and can be stretched to form a stable structure that can withstand extreme weather conditions. They have many advantages over traditional building materials, including lower weight, ease of installation and greater design flexibility.

The growth of the global building membrane market is driven by increasing demand for traction architecture, increasing urbanization and infrastructure development, and increasing awareness of energy efficient buildings. The polyester fabric segment is projected to lead the global construction membrane market during the forecast period due to its properties such as durability, strength, and resistance to UV radiation and moisture penetration. The glass fabric segment will grow rapidly during the forecast period due to its properties such as transparency and thermal insulation.

COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic Caused A Decline In Construction Activity Leading Reduction In Market Growth

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the architectural membrane material market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected the market share of architectural membranes. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a decline in construction activity worldwide. This has led to a decrease in their demand because they are mostly used in the construction industry. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted supply chains for many products, including these. This made it difficult for producers to obtain the materials needed for production, causing a decrease in supply. The COVID-19 pandemic has also caused an increase in raw material and transport prices. This made them more expensive to produce, which led to a decline in demand. The decline in construction activity was particularly strong in the early months of the pandemic, when many countries imposed restrictions and travel restrictions. Supply chains have been disrupted by a number of factors, including factory closings, port closures and delivery delays. The increase in costs was influenced by the increase in the price of raw materials such as plastic and steel.
