UK Facade Market Size (2024 - 2029)

UK Facade Market Analysis

• The UK Facade Market is estimated to register a CAGR of greater than 5% during the forecast period (2023-2028). The construction industry in the UK was adversely impacted by the virus outbreak, with output declining by 14% in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the construction and real estate industry subsequently, hampering the market growth. However, with the announcement of economic relief packages, the demand for facades increased in 2021-2022.
• Modernization and urbanization play a vital role in the market's growth. Several factors including waterproofing, fabrication, durability, and resistance to extreme climate come to play during the construction of facades. They determine consumer preferences for façade materials. Changing perceptions of consumers and increasing focus on the exterior appearance of a building will increase the demand in the market.
• Rising disposable income leads to increased investments in renovations, which, in turn, supports market advancement. Growing investments in the advancement of the residential and commercial construction industries can stoke the market's growth. The burgeoning popularity of green buildings and surging demand for high-transparency glasses that allow passage of light, while maintaining heat resistance, are poised to shape the future of the market. The market is projected to witness the application of high-performance and energy-saving solar control facades, which will contribute to higher economic benefits and eco-sustainability.
• Furthermore, the initiatives and regulations by government bodies, technological advancements, and the need for energy conservation are estimated to propel the market growth in the years to come. The soaring need to lower heating and air-conditioning costs and achieve energy efficiency is slated to stir up the demand for facades over the coming years.
• Growing focus on the development of sustainable products is likely to work in favor of the market. Incidences of severe building fires have prompted public concern over the safety of facade materials. Five years after the Grenfell fire in which 72 people died, the government banned the specific type of cladding that allowed the blaze to spread so rapidly. Metal composite panels with an unmodified polyethylene core now cannot be used on any building of any height. Facade materials play a vital role in fire safety as the outer part of the building is directly in contact with fire. Considering this façade materials will be strictly regulated in the future.
