Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Façade Market

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 led to a grinding halt in infrastructure and construction activities worldwide. As per the analysis reports, all regions suffered a significant downturn in workloads during the first half of 2020. However, the pandemic has led to a shift in people’s preference to spend their time indoors, which creates a critical requirement of ventilation and cooling. The COVID-19 pandemic has stimulated the need to create a healthy environment in residential, office and public spaces, which accelerates the demand for opening elements for curtain wall façades. Since the onset of the pandemic and the consequent restart of commercial activities, building occupants have a higher requirement of circulation of fresh air, access to outdoor spaces, and lower density for physical distancing. Therefore, the global façade market  is expected to regain momentum in the post-COVID-19 scenario due to its efficient functionality in ventilation, lighting, and cooling applications.

Prominent players in the façade market in North America are actively taking initiatives and signing projects to accelerate market growth in the post-pandemic period, i.e., mid-2020.
