With both new home construction and replacement and renovation construction, the residential segment, which accounts for a larger share of the market, is recording more transactions. The construction sector is suffering various obstacles due to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic, including a lack of investment, failure to complete projects on time, raw material shortages, a lack of competent labor, high operating expenses, and so on, but it is progressively returning to growth. During the projected period, the tendency is expected to continue, allowing ceramic sleeving to develop into a more niche market.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Scarcity of Labor to Impede Market Growth

One of the most difficult issues in destroying the optical homogeneity of a ceramic body and causing light scattering is choosing the right material composition. Furthermore, the ceramic sleeving market growth is hampered by a scarcity of skilled labor and training centers. If there is a bigger variance in material composition, there should be a greater difference in refractive index, resulting in a lower light transmittance for the entire ceramic.
