Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “The Global Flat Glass market is witnessing increased use of solar control flat glass in buildings and motor vehicles across the world. Solar control glass not only adds attractiveness to the buildings, but also minimizes their energy cost by reducing the need for an air-conditioning system. In hot regions, this glass is most suitable for the buildings as it reduces the solar heat gain and helps control glare. In temperate regions, this glass helps balance the solar control with natural light. Thus, these features are propelling the demand for solar control glass across the world, which in turn is expected to contribute revenue to the Global Flat Glass market during the forecast period.”
