Rainscreen cladding is an external panel facade system that protects a building’s backing wall from weather. This architectural solution is installed in a gap between the cladding and the building's wall. These cladding systems unlock benefits such as energy efficiency, weather protection, and aesthetic appeal, which make them a popular choice for new construction projects. Their thermal efficiency improvement benefit is associated with their ability to minimize heat loss and enhance insulation, which cumulatively aligns construction projects with the demand for energy efficiency and sustainability across the world.

The government of Canada announced an investment of C$ 22 billion (US$ 15.35 billion) to develop 15 projects in 2025, which include new hospital construction projects, energy initiatives, and water/wastewater projects. In March 2025, Germany’s Parliament, Bundestag, approved the draft bill amending the Basic Law, which allows for the establishment of a special fund with an additional EUR 500 billion (US$ 539.12) for German infrastructure to achieve climate neutrality by 2045. This initiative is perceived as a significant step toward modernizing public infrastructure in the country. The construction of new hospitals, green buildings, and energy projects with a high focus on developing sustainable infrastructures fuels the adoption of rainscreen cladding to safeguard these structures from extreme weather conditions, in turn improving energy efficiency and contributing to building longevity. Further, public–private partnerships (PPP) entities in Canada are planning to invest more than C$ 76 billion (53.02 billion) to develop 8 of their top 20 projects by the end of 2025. The PPPs typically involve large-scale infrastructure projects. The burgeoning popularity of PPP projects fuels the demand for durable and energy-efficient rainscreen cladding to improve energy efficiency, weather resistance, and overall building performance. Thus, the growing number of new infrastructure development and construction projects propels the rainscreen cladding market.

The scope of the Rainscreen Cladding Market report focuses on North America (the US, Canada, and Mexico), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia Pacific (South Korea, China, India, Japan, Australia, and the Rest of Asia Pacific), Middle East and Africa (South Africa, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and the Rest of Middle East), and South and Central America (Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of South and Central America). In Europe, Germany held the largest Rainscreen Cladding Market share in 2024. Germany's commitment to environmental sustainability drives the demand for energy-efficient building solutions, positioning rain-screen cladding as a favorable option due to its thermal performance and moisture control properties. The rain-screen cladding market in Germany is poised for continued growth, supported by sustainable construction practices, evolving architectural preferences, and a thriving construction industry. Total investment in the construction sector in 2023 across Germany reached US$ 540.03 billion. Residential sector construction dominates the construction sector in Germany, accounting for 61% of total construction investments as of 2023. Rainscreen cladding is widely used in residential and commercial buildings to protect from heavy rains and snow fall in Germany. 

The rain-screen cladding market in Asia Pacific is segmented into Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. Construction is one of the key industries in Asia Pacific, with an estimated US$ 4.5 trillion of output in 2024, representing ~46% of the global construction sector. Rainscreen cladding is a widely used construction for improving the durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal of buildings. However, in 2025, infrastructure investments related to transportation, renewable energy, manufacturing, and others reached US$ 21.9 billion in Singapore and Malaysia. Rainscreen cladding has become a standard in modern construction, offering both practical and aesthetic benefits. It improves water resistance, thermal insulation, and acoustic performance while extending the building life. Growing population and increasing urbanization are boosting the need to expand and upgrade important infrastructure facilities in the country. More than 54% of the world's population lives in urban areas of Asia Pacific, accounting for more than 2.3 billion people. Rainscreen cladding is primarily used in the exterior of the aircraft infrastructure, which offers enhanced energy efficiency and protection against heavy rainy conditions. 155 projects out of 425 airport and airport infrastructure development projects across the globe are under development in Asia Pacific with an investment of US$ 209 billion. One of the largest airport development projects in the region is the Long Thanh International Airport in Vietnam, which has an investment of US$ 14.5 billion and is expected to be completed by 2025. In addition, the expansion of Terminal 5 at Changi Airport, Singapore, is a US$ 10 billion project and is expected to be completed by 2030. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, in 2023, the government of India planned an investment of ~US$ 1.83 billion for the airport infrastructure development by 2026.

China's construction and infrastructure industry has witnessed transformative developments driven by rapid economic growth and the nation's ascent as a global economic powerhouse. China is one of the largest construction markets worldwide. The government included an expenditure of US$ 4 trillion in 2024, which is an increase of ~3.8% compared with the 2023 Budget. The investment for the construction of smart cities is rising across the country. Furthermore, public-private partnerships (PPP) in infrastructure development ensure ongoing investments in rainscreen cladding. In 2023, China's private and venture capital investment in mainland China reached US$ 68.80 billion. Additionally, the government of China invested US$ 138 billion to fund and support emerging technologies through public-private partnerships in 2023. According to the International Trade Administration estimates, the overall investment for the new infrastructure development during 2021–2025 reached ~US$ 4.2 trillion.  

Urbanization is rising rapidly in the country, propelling the demand for proper infrastructure. Major cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Chongqing are experiencing a rise in construction with high-rise buildings, mixed-use developments, and residential complexes, which require rainscreen cladding for excavation, foundation work, and structural construction. China has several leading rainscreen cladding manufacturers, such as LOPO; Foshan Greenzone New Construction Materials Co., Ltd.; Shanghai Huayuan New Composite Materials Co., Ltd.; and Henan Aludong Decorative Materials Co., Ltd.
