Material (Glass, Sheet Metal, Polymer, Membranes, Asphalt & Bitumen, Gypsum Board, Drywall/Board Lumber, Plywood, Concrete/Brick)
Polymer segment is poised to capture around 51% vapor barriers market share by the end of 2037. The segment growth can be attributed to its significant availability. Polymer vapor barriers are easy to install, cost-effective, versatile, flexible, and offer prime moisture resistance attributes.
Additionally, these reduce the risk of mildew formation, lessening the risk of damage to the building materials. Further, these are highly demanded under-slab applications due to their enormous properties. The U.S. National Science Foundation along with industry leaders such as BASF announced a sustainable polymer research program that incorporates a huge fund of USD 9.5 million and will leverage data science tools for the creative of new premium polymers.
Application (Corrosion Resistance, Insulation, Waterproofing, Material Packaging & stacking, Microbial & Fungal Resistance)
By 2037, insulation segment is expected to capture over 40% vapor barriers market share. Insulation helps in maintaining ideal indoor comfort along with saving energy by resisting the entry of moisture in walls and ceilings. The integration of vapor barriers with insulation materials improves the thermal structure of the buildings.
Also, vapor barriers are highly demanded to offer optimal insulation in regions where the climate fluctuates and both indoor and outdoor temperatures differ. Vapor barriers prevent the wall from desiccating by maintaining moisture.
